Synthesis and properties of bulk MgWN in a wurtzite-derived structure
Anna A. Berseneva, Christopher L. Rom, Layton Rudolph +5
Experimental synthesis of theoretically predicted materials with controlled elemental coordination environments can lead to realization of useful properties, such as facile ion tra…
Thin-Film Stabilization and Magnetism of η-Carbide Type Iron Nitrides
Baptiste Julien, Abrar Rauf, Liam A. V. Nagle-Cocco +4
Transition-metal nitrides in η-carbide type structures exhibit unusual bonding motifs and proximity to magnetic instabilities. Yet they remain unexplored in thin-film form due to…
Ferrimagnetic Order in Tetragonal Antiperovskite MnGeN
Shaun O'Donnell, Corlyn Regier, Sharad Mahatara +7
The crystal and magnetic structures of the nitride antiperovskite MnGeN reveals ferrimagnetic order stemming from a distorted kagome-derived lattice of the Mn atoms. Polycrysta…
Interplay of Ferromagnetic and Antiferromagnetic Interactions in Epitaxial CoZnN
Sita Dugu, Sharad Mahatara, Corlyn E Regier +4
Antiperovskite nitrides with the general formula MN have attracted significant attention due to their tunable electronic and magnetic properties. Among them are many cobalt-bas…
Structural stability, elemental ordering, and transport properties of layered ScTaN2
Baptiste Julien, Ian A. Leahy, Rebecca W. Smaha +4
Some ternary TM nitrides are predicted to adopt layered structures that make them interesting for thermoelectric conversion and quantum materials applications. Synthesis of TM tern…
Synthesis pathways to thin films of stable layered nitrides
Andriy Zakutayev, Matthew Jankousky, Laszlo Wolf +7
Controlled synthesis of metastable materials away from equilibrium is of interest in materials chemistry. Thin film deposition methods with rapid condensation of vapor precursors c…
