Radiation tolerance: Nano triumphs bulk
Parswajit Kalita, Santanu Ghosh, Gaëlle Gutierrez +4
Materials are subjected to energetic particles in a number of radiation environments,and are hence prone to undesirable (radiation) damage.We report here the superiority of the nan…

Oxygen vacancy mediated cubic phase stabilization at room temperature in pure nano-crystalline Zirconia films: A combined experimental and first-principles based investigation
Parswajit Kalita, Shikha Saini, Parasmani Rajput +6
We report the formation of cubic phase, under ambient conditions, in thin films of Zirconia synthesized by electron beam evaporation technique. The stabilization of the cubic phase…

Swift heavy ion irradiation induced structural phase transitions in BaTiO3: An in-situ x-ray diffraction study
Ravindra Singh Solanki, Jay Prakash Patel, Chandana Rath +3
There is considerable controversy about swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiation induced displacive phase transitions in thermally insulating oxides. We present here unambiguous evidence…
