Metal flux synthes is a useful alternative method to high temperature solid state synthesis; it allows easy diffusion of reactants at lower temperatures, and presents favorable conditions for crystal growth. A mixed flux of calcium and...
Crystalline intermetallic phases grown by metal flux synthesis are discussed in terms of structure-property relationships. Flux growth is employed as the primary synthesis methods across different systems from single element fluxes like...
Metal flux synthesis is a useful technique for the discovery of novel intermetallic phases. The molten state enhances diffusion rates which improves rates of reaction. Reactions can proceed at lower temperatures, allowing for the...
Metal flux synthesis was used to discover new Zintl phase materials and to grow crystals of superconducting phases. Reactions of barium and the pnictide elements Pn = P or As in indium melts produced new Zintl phases Ba2In5Pn5. This...
Metal eutectic fluxes are useful for exploratory synthesis of new intermetallic phases. In this work the use of cerium/transition metal eutectics such as: Ce/Co, Ce/Ni, and Ce/Fe have yielded many new synthetically and magnetically...
The flux method is a very useful technique for the exploratory synthesis of rare earth intermetallics. Reactions of rare earth metals with iron and silicon (or germanium, tin, lead) in a 1:1 Mg/Al flux have yielded single crystals of a...
Flux synthesis is a useful method for the exploration and development of new tetrelide Zintl phases. Reactions of heavy divalent metals (A = Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu, Yb) with tetrels (Tt = Si, Ge, Sn) in Mg/Al flux mixtures produce charge...
Abstract Metal eutectic fluxes are useful for exploratory synthesis of rare earth intermetallics. In this work, the use of rare earth/transition metal eutectics such as: Nd/Co, Pr/Co, Ce/Co, Nd/Ni and Sm/Ni have yielded many structually...
Flux synthesis is a very powerful and versatile technique for the exploratory synthesis of rare earth intermetallics. Reactions of rare earth metals and alkali earth elements with silicon in a Mg/Al flux or a Mg/Zn flux have yielded...
Flux synthesis of new complex compounds uses an excess of molten metals or salts as a reaction medium. This solution-based method is a valuable tool in materials synthesis, enabling the solid-state chemist to achieve reactivity at...
In this work, various transition and main group metals were heated in a low temperature molten sulfur/iodine flux to produce metal sulfides and metal sulfide iodides, in a one-pot synthesis method that eliminates the use of toxic or...
The search for alternative nuclear fuels, materials suitable for nuclear waste repositories, and new superconducting materials has been underway for decades. We have explored metal flux and mixed-metal flux synthesis and supercritical...
This work explored the modification of interstitial sites in lanthanide intermetallics grown from metal flux synthesis. Hydrocarbons and fluorocarbons were used as sources of carbon and either hydrogen or fluorine and were reacted with...
