Ditrău Alkaline Massif is one of the few syenitic Massifs in Europe subjected to mining exploration in the past, located in the Eastern Carpathians, Romania. The heterogenous petrography includes acid to ultrabasic rocks such as syenites, hornblendites, and diorites, making it the defining feature of the Massif. In this study, we analyze the river bed sediments of two rivers, Ditrău and Jolotca, draining the Ditrău Alkaline Massif to determine their geochemical composition, with particular interest in Rare Earth Elements.

In this study, a high-performance inorganic-organic hybrid hole transporting layer (HTL) was developed using ethanol-soluble alkoxide precursors and a self-assembled monolayer (SAM). Three metal oxides-vanadium oxide (VO), niobium oxide (NbO), and tantalum oxide (TaO)-were synthesized through successive low-temperature (100 °C) thermal annealing (TA) and UV-ozone (UVO) treatments of their respective precursors: vanadium oxytriethoxide (EtO-V), niobium ethoxide (EtO-Nb), and tantalum ethoxide (EtO-Ta). Among these, the NbO film exhibited excellent transmittance, a high work function, and good conductivity, along with a more compact and uniform structure featuring fewer interfacial defects, which facilitated efficient charge extraction and transport.

Metals that are used to reconstruct skeletal structures often interfere with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) owing to differences in magnetic susceptibility; consequently, metals with lower magnetic susceptibilities need to be developed for use in implant devices. Herein, we investigated the corrosion properties of the Zr-14Nb-5Ta-1Mo alloy, which exhibits low magnetic susceptibility and excellent mechanical properties. The pitting potential of Zr-14Nb-5Ta-1Mo was higher than that of pure Zr.

Lithium-rich early transition metal oxides are the source of excess removeable lithium that affords high energy density to lithium-rich battery cathodes. They are also candidates for solid electrolytes in all-solid-state batteries. These highly ionic compounds are sparse on phase diagrams of thermodynamically stable oxides, but soft chemical routes offer an alternative to explore new alkali-rich crystal chemistries.

We present four open-source datasets that provide results of density functional theory (DFT) calculations of ground-state properties of refractory solid solution binary alloys niobium-tantalum (NbTa), niobium-vanadium (NbV), tantalum-vanadium (TaV), and ternary alloys NbTaV ordered in body-centered-cubic (BCC) structures with 128 Bravais lattice sites. The first-principles code used to run the calculations is the Vienna Ab-Initio Simulation Package. The calculations have been collected by uniformly sampling chemical compositions across the entire compositional range.
