Molecular Beam Epitaxy Synthesis of Ternary Nitride PrTaN2 and its Crystal Structure Determination

Abstract We report the discovery of a novel ternary nitride PrTaN2 synthesized as a thin film using molecular beam epitaxy. The combination of e-beam evaporation for refractory elements and a radio-frequency nitrogen radical source enables growth under a highly nitriding environm...

Compositional Uniformity and Thermal Properties of Tetra- N -butyl Ammonium Bromide and Tetra- N -butyl Ammonium Chloride Mixed Semiclathrate Hydrates

Abstract Mixed semiclathrate hydrates (SCHs) incorporating various guest molecules exhibit high latent heat and allow precise control of the melting temperatures, making them promising materials for cold energy storage applications. The compositional uniformity and thermal proper...
