High-Pressure Torsion-Induced Transformation of Adenosine Monophosphate: Insights into Prebiotic Chemistry of RNA by Astronomical Impacts
Kaveh Edalati, Jacqueline Hidalgo-Jimenez, Thanh Tam Nguyen
The origin of life is yet a compelling scientific mystery that has sometimes been attributed to high-pressure impacts by small solar system bodies such as comets, meteoroids, aster…
Hydrogen diffusion in TiCrH Laves phases: A combined ab initio and machine-learning-potential study
Pranav Kumar, Fritz Körmann, Kaveh Edalati +2
The kinetics of hydrogen diffusion in C15 cubic and C14 hexagonal TiCrH (0 < <= 4) Laves-phase hydrogen storage alloys is investigated with density functional theory (D…
Developing a single-phase and nanograined refractory high-entropy alloy ZrHfNbTaW with ultrahigh hardness by phase transformation via high-pressure torsion
Shivam Dangwal, Kaveh Edalati
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are potential candidates for applications as refractory materials. While dual-phase refractory HEAs containing an ordered phase exhibit high hardness, th…
Photoreforming of plastic waste into valuable products and hydrogen using a high-entropy oxynitride with distorted atomic-scale structure
Ho Truong Nam Hai, Thanh Tam Nguyen, Maiko Nishibori +2
The persistent existence of plastic waste causes serious problems for the environment, directly and indirectly affecting the health of organisms and humans. Photoreforming is a nat…
