Technological and scientific challenges coupled with environmental considerations have
prompted a search for simple and energy-efficient syntheses and processing routes of …

Non-silicate oxide minerals are minor but important constituents of many igneous and
metamorphic rocks, a major component of Earth's lower mantle, and are well represented in …

A new, IMA-approved classification scheme for the spinel-supergroup minerals is here
reported. To belong to the spinel supergroup, a mineral must meet two criteria:(i) the ratio of …

There has been an increased focus on understanding the energetics of structures with
unconventional ordering (for example, correlated disorder that is heterogeneous across …

The oxide garnet Y3Al5O12 (YAG), when substituted with a few percent of the activator ion
Ce3+ to replace Y3+, is a luminescent material that is nearly ideal for phosphor-converted …

Spinels represent an important class of technologically relevant materials, used in diverse
applications ranging from dielectrics, sensors and energy materials. While solid solutions …

We use a new method to construct an upper mantle model based on self‐consistent
computation of phase equilibria and physical properties. Computation of the isotropic elastic …

The distribution of cations between tetrahedral (A) sites and octahedral (B) sites in ferrite
spinels has been studied using K-edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The samples include …

We report experimental results on the composition and crystallography of oxides formed on
NiCrMo alloys during both high-temperature oxidation and aqueous corrosion experiments …

A complete literature review, critical evaluation, and thermodynamic modeling of the phase
diagrams and thermodynamic properties of all oxide phases in the MgO-Al 2 O 3, CaO-MgO …
