Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Alexander Ya Pak"
- Alexander Ya Pak's research primarily focuses on innovative synthesis methods using direct current atmospheric arc plasma to produce high-value materials such as tungsten boride and silicon carbide from non-traditional sources like glass waste.
- In his article published in "Inorg Chem," Pak demonstrates an efficient technique for synthesizing boron-rich tungsten boride, employing computational techniques to reveal its two-phase crystal structure and using ab initio calculations to ascertain its composition.
- His work in "Waste Manag" explores the conversion of glass waste into silicon carbide without requiring vacuum equipment, highlighting a novel approach that utilizes self-shielding to protect the reaction from atmospheric oxygen.
