Tests of the uniaxial compression of single grains were performed in a specially designed press, which allowed the recording of an applied load in regard to the time and observation of occurring phenomena in a polarization assay. Three types of grains were tested: quartz sand, glass granules, and crushed glass. The strength tests showed different mechanisms of grain damage depending on the type of grain. In addition, the formation and spread of interference fringes, forming "chains of force" in samples with a large number of grains, were observed by testing glass grains under the polarization assay. A more detailed understanding of the strength characteristics of single grains will allow the verification of the models most commonly used in DEM.

The study highlights the significant effects of Zn ions concentration on the optical properties of BaNiZnFeO ferrites, emphasizing the tunability of the band gap through Zn doping and explores their potential to enhance their optical properties. The barium-nickel ferrite powder, with the composition BaNiZnFeO, was synthesized using the ceramic method. The effects of Zn doping were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV‒visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy.

Hematite (α-FeO) nanoparticles have been synthesized from waste source of iron which contains a prominent amount of iron (93.2 %) and investigated the effect of low temperature calcination. The two-step synthesis method involved preparing ferrous sulfate through acid leaching process followed by oxidation and calcination at temperatures ranging from 200 to 400 °C to produce the desired α-FeO in nano form.

The utilization of single crystals is exponentially growing in optoelectronic devices due to their exceptional benefits, including high phase purity and the absence of grain boundaries. However, achieving single crystals with a porous structure poses significant challenges. In this study, we present a method for fabricating porous single crystals (porous-SC) of CsAgBiBr and related halide double perovskites using an infrared-assisted spin coating technique.
