Herein, peculiarities of atomic arrangements on the local scale and electronic states of constituent elements in the single-phase face-centered cubic (fcc)- and body-centered cubic (bcc)-structured high-entropy Alx-CrFeCoNi alloys (x = 0.3 and 3, respectively) are explored by element-specific X-ray absorption spectroscopy in hard and soft X-ray energy ranges.

The revealed unimodal and bimodal distributions of all five elements are in agreement with structure-dependent magnetic properties of studied alloys probed by magnetometry. A degree of surface atoms oxidation uncovered by soft X-rays suggests different kinetics of oxide formation for each type of constituents and has to be taken into account. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism technique employed at L2,3 absorption edges of transition metals demonstrates reduced magnetic moments of 3d metal constituents in the sub-Surface region of in situ cleaned fcc-structured Al0.3-CrFeCoNi compared to their bulk values. Extended to nanostructured versions of multicomponent alloys, such studies would bring new insights related to effects of high entropy mixing on low dimensions.

A1 - Yusenko, Kirill T1 - Inner relaxations in equiatomic single-phase high-entropy Cantoralloy N2 - The superior properties of high-entropy multi-functional materials are strongly connected with their atomic heterogeneity through many different local atomic interactions. The detailed element-specific studies on a local scale can provide insight into the primary arrangements of atoms in multicomponent systems and benefit to unravel the role of individual components in certain macroscopic properties of complex compounds. Herein, multi-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy combined with reverse Monte Carlo simulations was used to explore a homogeneity of the local crystallographic ordering and specific structure relaxations of each constituent in the equiatomic single-phase facecentered cubic CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloy at room temperature. Within the considered fitting approach, all five elements of the alloy were found to be distributed at the nodes of the fcc lattice without any signatures of the additional phases at the atomic scale and exhibit very close statistically averaged interatomic distances (2.54 – 2.55 Å) with their nearest-neighbors. Enlarged structural displacements were found solely for Cr atoms. The macroscopic magnetic properties probed by conventional magnetometry demonstrate no opening of the hysteresis loops at 5 K and illustrate a complex character of the long-range magnetic order after field-assisted cooling in ± 5 T. The observed magnetic behavior is assigned to effects related to structural relaxations of Cr. Besides, the advantages and limitations of the reverse Monte Carlo approach to studies of multicomponent systems like high-entropy alloys are highlighted.

T1 - Mono-, Di-, and Tri-valent Cation Doped BiFe0.95Mn0.05O3 Nanoparticles: Ferroelectric Photocatalysts N2 - The ferroelectricity of multivalent co-doped Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3; BFO) nanoparticles (NPs) is revealed and utilized for light photocatalysis exploiting their narrow electronic band gap. The photocatalytic activity of ferroelectric photocatalysts BiFe0.95Mn0.05O3 (BFM) NPs and mono-, di-, or tri-valent cations (Ag+, Ca2+, Dy3+; MDT) co-incorporated BFM NPs are studied under ultrasonication and in acidic conditions. We find that such doping enhances the photocatalytic activity of the ferroelectric NPs approximately three times. The correlation of the photocatalytic activity with structural, optical, and electrical properties of the doped NPs is established. The increase of spontaneous polarization by the mono- and tri-valent doping is one of the major factors in enhancing the photocatalytic performance along with other factors such as stronger light absorption in the visible range, low recombination rate of charge carriers and larger surface area of NPs. A-site doping of BFO NPs by divalent elements suppresses the polarization, whereas trivalent (Dy3+) and monovalent (Ag+) cations provide an increase of polarization. The depolarization field in these single domain NPs acts as a driving force to mitigate recombination of the photoinduced charge carriers.

T1 - Following adsorbed intermediates on a platinum gas diffusion electrode in H3PO3‑containing electrolytes using in situ X‑ray absorption spectroscopy N2 - One of the challenges of high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells is the poisoning of the Pt catalyst with H3PO4. H3PO4 is imbibed into the routinely used polybenzimidazole-based membranes, which facilitate proton conductivity in the temperature range of 120−200 °C. However, when leached out of the membrane by water produced during operation, H3PO4 adsorbs on the Pt catalyst surface, blocking the active sites and hindering the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The reduction of H3PO4 to H3PO3, which occurs at the anode due to a combination of a low potential and the presence of gaseous H2, has been investigated as an additional important contributing factor to the observed poisoning effect. H3PO3 has an affinity toward adsorption on Pt surfaces even greater than that of H2PO4 −. In this work, we investigated the poisoning effect of both H3PO3 and H3PO4 using a half-cell setup with a gas diffusion electrode under ambient conditions. By means of in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, it was possible to follow the signature of different species adsorbed on the Pt nanoparticle catalyst (H, O, H2PO4 −, and H3PO3) at different potentials under ORR conditions in various electrolytes (HClO4, H3PO4, and H3PO3). It was found that H3PO3 adsorbs in a pyramidal configuration P(OH)3 through a Pt−P bond. The competition between H3PO4 and H3PO3 adsorption was studied, which should allow for a better understanding of the catalyst poisoning mechanism and thus assist in the development of strategies to mitigate this phenomenon in the future by minimizing H3PO3 generation by, for example, improved catalyst design or adapted operation conditions or changes in the electrolyte composition.

T1 - Face-centered cubic refractory alloys prepared from single-source precursors N2 - Three binary fcc-structured alloys (fcc–Ir0.50Pt0.50, fcc Rh0.66Pt0.33 and fcc–Rh0.50Pd0.50) were 14 prepared from [Ir(NH3)5Cl][PtCl6], [Ir(NH3)5Cl][PtBr6], [Rh(NH3)5Cl]2[PtCl6]Cl2 and 15 [Rh(NH3)5Cl][PdCl4]·H2O, respectively, as single-source precursors.

High-temperature and high-pressure data are presented for the sample with x = 1.6. An increase in temperature initiates the phase transition from tetragonal precursor to orthorhombic-ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) with the subsequent formation of cubic and trigonal phases. The thermolysis parameter of the disordered cubic ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) phase is 803 K, and the coefficient of thermal expansion is α = -4.6∙10–6 K−1. Data on ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) structure as a function of pressure are obtained for the first time. Pressureinduced changes from cubic to orthorhombic ZrW2-xMoxO8 (x = 1.6) phase at 1.38 GPa are observed. The sample amorphization is irreversible during decompression.

For example, a lot of attention is given to salts with [M(C2O4)2]2– anions, where M = Co, Ni, Cu, Pt, Pd. On the one hand, the uniqueness of oxalate coordinated anions is due to the fact that they are easily obtained and are stable both in aqueous solutions and in the solid phase; on the other hand, they are thermally decomposed at relatively low temperatures, which makes them promising precursors for the fabrication of metallic and oxide materials. N2 - Синтезирован ряд из четырех изоструктурных двойных комплексных солей, построенных на основе катионов [М1(NH3)6]3+ и анионов [M2(C2O4)3]3-, где M1 = Co, Ir, M2 = Fe, Cr. Соли кристаллизуются в гексагональной пространственной группе симметрии P`3c1. Согласно данным термического анализа в атмосфере аргона, термическая устойчивость (температуры начала разложения обезвоженных продуктов) изучаемых соединений зависит от природы комплексного трисоксалатного аниона и увеличивается в рядах [Ir(NH3)6][Co(C2O4)3] < [Ir(NH3)6][Fe(C2O4)3] < [Ir(NH3)6][Cr(C2O4)3] < [Ir(NH3)6][Ir(C2O4)3] и [Co(NH3)6][Co(C2O4)3] < [Co(NH3)6][Fe(C2O4)3] < [Co(NH3)6][Cr(C2O4)3] < [Co(NH3)6][Ir(C2O4)]. При этом при одинаковом анионе соли гексаммина иридия(III) более устойчивы по сравнению с солями кобальта(III)). При термическом разложении солей [Co(NH3)6][Fe(C2O4)3]·3H2O и [Ir(NH3)6][Fe(C2O4)3] 3H2O в атмосфере водорода образуются твердые растворы Co0,5Fe0,5 и Ir0,5Fe0,5 соответственно.

It was possible to distinguish four decomposition steps upon heating: In the temperature range of 50⁻100 °C-the loss of crystal water; 100⁻190 °C-stability region of dehydrated complex; 230⁻270 °C-the range of stability of intermediate phase with the formula CoFe(NH₃)₂(C₂O₄)₂; 270⁻350 °C-thermal decomposition of the intermediate with the formation of metallic products and further air oxidation with the formation of Co1.5Fe1.5O₄. Catalytic properties of thermolysis products were tested in the decomposition reaction of H₂O₂ (inactive), oxidation of acetone (average activity), and decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (highly active).

A1 - Yusenko, Kirill T1 - Unique Nanomechanical Properties of Diamond-Lonsdaleite Biphases: Combined Exp and Theor consideration of popigai impact diamonds N2 - For the first time, lonsdaleite-rich impact diamonds from one of the largest Popigai impact crater (Northern Siberia) with a high concentration of structural defects are investigated under hydrostatic compression up to 25 GPa. It is found that, depending on the nature of a sample, the bulk modulus for lonsdaleite experimentally obtained by X-ray diffraction in diamond-anvil cells is systematically lower and equal to 93.3−100.5% of the average values of the bulk moduli of a diamond matrix. Density functional theory calculations reveal possible coexistence of a number of diamond/lonsdaleite and twin diamond biphases. Among the different mutual configurations, separate inclusions of one lonsdaleite (001) plane per four diamond (111) demonstrate the lowest energy per carbon atom, suggesting a favorable formation of single-layer lonsdaleite (001) fragments inserted in the diamond matrix. Calculated formation energies and experimental diamond (311) and lonsdaleite (331) powder X-ray diffraction patterns indicate that all biphases could be formed under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions. Following the equation of states, the bulk modulus of the diamond (111)/lonsdaleite (001) biphase is the largest one among all bulk moduli, including pristine diamond and lonsdaleite.

A1 - Yusenko, Kirill T1 - Equations of state of rhodium, iridium and their alloys up to 70 GPa N2 - Knowledge of the compressional and thermal behaviour of metals and alloys is of a high fundamental and applied value. In this work, we studied the behaviour of Ir, Rh, and their fcc-structured alloys, Ir0.42Rh0.58 and Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15, up to 70 GPa using the diamond anvil cell technique with synchrotron X-ray diffraction. We found that all these materials are structurally stable upon room-temperature hydrostatic compression in the whole pressure interval, as well as upon heating to 2273 K both at ambient and high pressure. Rh, Ir0.42Rh0.58 and Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15 were investigated under static compression for the first time. According to our data, the compressibility of Ir, Rh, fcc–Ir0.42Rh0.58, and fcc Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15, can be described with the 3rd order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state with the following parameters: V0 = 14.14(6) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 341(10) GPa, and B0' = 4.7(3); V0 = 13.73(7) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 301(9) GPa, and B0' = 3.1(2); V0 = 13.90(8) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 317(17) GPa, and B0' = 6.0(5); V0 = 14.16(9) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 300(22) GPa, B0' = 6(1), where V0 is the unit cell volume, B0 and B0' – are the bulk modulus and its pressure derivative.
