Reshaping of Truncated Pd Nanocubes Realistic Atomistic-Level and Coarse-Grained Modeling of Energy Landscapes and Kinetics
Development of permanent magnets using low cost mischmetal CMI research at Ames Laboratory used high-throughput (HiTp) synthesis and rapid characterization to identify permanent magnet alloy compositions with decreased critical material content, and was accepted for publication in ACS Combinatorial Science.
Functionalizing magnet additive manufacturing systems with in-situ magnetic field source CMI technical publication on functionalizing permanent magnet additive manufacturing systems with a magnetic field source. The field source was modeled, designed, prototyped and tested on an existing table-top commercial 3D printer.
Complex oscillatory decrease with size in the diffusivity of epitaxially-supported 3D metal nanoclusters Theoretical analysis reveals a complex oscillatory decay in the diffusivity of {100}-epitaxially supported fcc metal nanoclusters (NCs) with increasing size. NCs have a 3D structure for weak adhesion to oxide or other supports. Results contrast traditional assumptions of monotonic decay with increasing size.
Catalytic Carbon–Oxygen Bond Cleavage The oxophilicity of lanthanide complexes is leveraged for catalytic C–O cleavage via hydroboration. The proposed mechanism indicates that the reactive La-H is protected and activated as borate adduct, yielding high catalytic rates and turnover numbers.
Al-Ce alloys designated by Aluminum Association CMI developed alloys that have passed key commercial milestone, and have been accorded official designations by The Aluminum Association, opening the door to global industrial applications
Ce-based gap magnets match high-temperature performance of neo CMI research at Ames Laboratory Achievement showed that at certain temperatures a cerium-based magnet matches the energy product of and exceeds the coercivity of neodymium permanent magnets
High-performance critical-element-free permanent magnets CMI research at Ames Laboratory demonstrated that mechanochemical preprocessing is beneficial for nitrogen insertion/topotactic extraction
Lower-cost commercial grade Ce enhances performance and reduces cost in gap magnets CMI research with lower-cost commercial grade cerium enhances performance and reduces cost in gap magnets. Also, the less costly “dirty” cerium samples showed as much as a 5% increase of both coercivity and magnetization, resulting in better energy product.
