Article Synopsis
  • Hydrogen production through water electrolysis is gaining popularity as a green energy solution, and developing efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts is vital for its progress.
  • This study successfully synthesized core-shell structured bifunctional transition metal silicide electrocatalysts using a magnesium thermal reduction method, resulting in a protective silicon oxide shell.
  • The cobalt-iron silicide catalyst exhibited better performance in oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions compared to single metal catalysts, maintaining stability after continuous use, indicating its potential for hydrogen production applications.

Novel rare-earth silicide, TbCoSicompound, crystallizes in LuCoGastructure, a distorted substitution variant of thestructure. The compound exhibits a complex magnetic state, with a ferromagnetic transition at 58 K, followed by successive antiferromagnetic transitions at 24 K and 8 K, respectively. Isothermal and magnetic hysteresis studies indicate the prominence of competing antiferro and ferromagnetic interactions in the compound.

We investigate the magnetic interlayer coupling and domain structure of ultra-thin ferromagnetic (FM) cobalt (Co) layers embedded between a graphene (G) layer and a platinum (Pt) layer on a silicon carbide (SiC) substrate (G/Co/Pt on SiC). Experimentally, a combination of x-ray photoemission electron microscopy with x-ray magnetic circular dichroism has been carried out at the Co L-edge. Furthermore, structural and chemical properties of the system have been investigated using low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

Nanoscale heterostructures of covalent intermetallics should give birth to a wide range of interface-driven physical and chemical properties. Such a level of design however remains unattainable for most of these compounds, due to the difficulty to reach a crystalline order of covalent bonds at the moderate temperatures required for colloidal chemistry. Herein, we design heterostructured cobalt silicide nanoparticles to trigger magnetic and catalytic properties in silicon-based materials.

Hardmetals (or cemented carbides) were invented a hundred years ago and became one of the most important materials in engineering. The unique conjunction of fracture toughness, abrasion resistance and hardness makes WC-Co cemented carbides irreplaceable for numerous applications. As a rule, the WC crystallites in the sintered WC-Co hardmetals are perfectly faceted and possess a truncated trigonal prism shape.
