This paper reports on the effect of the solvent viscosity on the formation of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) during Sputtering onto Liquid (SoL) process. All other parameters related to the plasma and the host liquid are kept constant. SoL is a simple highly reproducible approach for preparation of colloidal dispersions of small naked NPs. The properties of the final product are determined by both the sputtering parameters and the host liquid characteristics. As a model system we chose to sputter a gold target by a direct-current magnetron discharge onto a line of polymerized rapeseed oils having similar surface tension (32.6 ― 33.1 mJ·m-2 at RT). It was found that well dispersed Au NPs grow in the bulk solution of oils with low viscosities (below 630 cP at 25 °C) while gold films form onto the surface of high viscosity liquids (more than 1000 cP at 25 °C). The mean diameter of the individual Au NPs slightly increases with oil viscosity and is in range about 2.1―2.5 nm according to transmission electron microscopy.
In the current study, we investigate an interaction under high-pressure high-temperature of single phase fcc-, hcp- and bcc-structured high-entropy alloys with hydrogen, carbon and nitrogen to obtain high-entropy hydrides, carbides and nitrides. Structural changes in high-entropy alloys upon compression and heating in the presence of these light elements are in the focus of our investigation. An easy route to high-entropy hydrides, carbides and nitrides will open new synthetic horizons in compositionally complex materials. Our study suggests that high-entropy alloys form high- entropy hydrides mainly with a composition close to M:H 1:1 ratio. Hydrides can be obtained under compression with hydrogen as a pressure compression medium or using hydrogen fluid as reactive agent.
With increasing demand and environmental concerns, researchers are exploring new materials that can perform as well or better than traditional materials while reducing environmental impact. The BAMline, a real-life sample materials research beamline, provides unique insights into materials’ electronic and chemical structure at different time and length scales. The beamline specializes in x-ray absorption spectroscopy, x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, and tomography experiments. This enables real-time optimization of material properties and performance for various applications, such as energy transfer, energy storage, catalysis, and corrosion resistance. This paper gives an overview of the analytical methods and sample environments of the BAMline, which cover non-destructive testing experiments in materials science, chemistry, biology, medicine, and cultural heritage. We also present our own synthesis methods, processes, and equipment developed specifically for the BAMline, and we give examples of synthesized materials and their potential applications. Finally, this article discusses the future perspectives of the BAMline and its potential for further advances in sustainable materials research.
