A Topotactic Phase Transition in the Uranium Oxide System
Jacek Wasik, Renaud Podor, Jarrod Lewis +4
A topotactic phase transition involves the transformation of one crystalline solid to another, which may include the loss or gain of material, where the orientation of the parent c…

Polyepitaxial grain matching to study the oxidation of uranium dioxide
Jacek Wasik, Joseph Sutcliffe, Renaud Podor +15
Although the principal physical behaviour of a material is inherently connected to its fundamental crystal structure, the behaviours observed in the real-world are often driven by…

Absence of Induced Ferromagnetism in Epitaxial Uranium Dioxide Thin Films
William Thomas, Fabrice Wilhelm, Sean Langridge +6
Recently, Sharma et al. [Adv. Sci. 9, 2203473 (2022)] claimed that thin films (around 20 nm) of UO2 deposited on perovskite substrates exhibit strongly enhanced paramagnetism (call…
