We are happy to share the discovery of the ZIP phases, a brand-new family of compounds that could mark a revolution in materials science. These materials reveal atomic structures unlike anything seen before, opening exciting opportunities for future research and applications. đź“„ A New Family of Ternary Intermetallic Compounds with Dualistic Atomic Ordering – The … Continue reading A revolution in materials science
The [X-MAT] team at the Chair of Nonferrous Metallurgy, Montanuniversität Leoben, has drawn global attention with a groundbreaking study published in Advanced Science (DOI: 10.1002/advs.202417659). With more than 1k views and reads in the journal's first month after publication, our work challenges the prevailing high-entropy alloy (HEA) paradigm by proving that even simpler alloy systems can outperform their … Continue reading Leoben makes waves in fusion materials research
Our latest study just dropped as a preprint on the SSRN server: Is Nitrogen Doping of Diamond-Like Carbon Films a Viable Strategy for Bipolar Plates in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells? đź’ˇ In this work, we challenge the idea that nitrogen doping improves Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coatings. Using a combination of electrochemical testing, electron microscopy, … Continue reading Aluminium + Diamond-Like Carbon for Next-Gen Hydrogen Fuel Cells
