Antimony arsenide: Chemical ordering in the compound SbAs

Daniel P. Shoemaker, Thomas C. Chasapis, Dat Do +5

The semimetallic Group V elements display a wealth of correlated electron phenomena due to a small indirect band overlap that leads to relatively small, but equal, numbers of holes…

Thermodynamic Stability of Co-Al-W L12 γ'

James E. Saal, Chris Wolverton

Co-based superalloys in the Co-Al-W system exhibit coherent L12 Co3(Al,W) γ' precipitates in an fcc Co γmatrix, analogous to Ni3Al in Ni-based systems. Unlike Ni3Al however, experi…

Lattice dynamics reveals a local symmetry breaking in the emergent dipole phase of PbTe

Kirsten M. Ø. Jensen, Emil S. Božin, Christos D. Malliakas +5

Local symmetry breaking in complex materials is emerging as an important contributor to materials properties but is inherently difficult to study. Here we follow up an earlier stru…

Decoherence and mode-hopping in a magnetic tunnel junction-based spin-torque oscillator

P. K. Muduli, O. G. Heinonen, J. Åkerman

We discuss the coherence of magnetic oscillations in a magnetic tunnel junction-based spin-torque oscillator as a function of external field angle. Time-frequency analysis shows mo…
