Direct High-Magnetic-Field Coupling to Stripe Order in a Cuprate Superconductor

Leonardo Martinelli, Izabela Biało, Jens Oppliger +47

Superconductivity in cuprates emerges out of a complex normal state that hosts density waves, pseudogap physics, and strange metal properties. Here, we access this normal state by…

Iron spin crossover in ferropericlase and its effect on lower-mantle thermal conductivity

Alexander F. Goncharov, Irina Chuvashova, Eric Edmund +29

Thermal conductivity of Earths lower mantle controls heat transfer across the core-mantle boundary (CMB) and strongly influences mantle convection. We report direct measurements of…

Structural evolution of iron oxides melts at Earth's outer-core pressures

Céline Crépisson, Mila Fitzgerald, Domenic Peake +32

Oxygen and other light elements comprise up to 5 wt% of the Earth's outer-core, and may significantly influence its physical properties and the operation of the geodynamo. Here we…

Synthesis of ultra-incompressible sp3-hybridized carbon nitride

Elissaios Stavrou, Sergey Lobanov, Huafeng Dong +4

Search of materials with C-N composition hold a great promise in creating materials which would rival diamond in hardness due to the very strong and relatively low-ionic C-N bond.…
