The AFLOW library of crystallographic prototypes: Part 4

Journal article Computational Materials Science · May 1, 2024 Featured Publication The AFLOW Library of Crystallographic Prototypes has been updated to include an additional 683 entries, which now reaches 1,783 prototypes. We have also made some changes to the presentation of the entries, including a more consistent definition of the AFL ... Full text Cite

Disordered enthalpy-entropy descriptor for high-entropy ceramics discovery.

Journal article Nature · January 2024 Featured Publication The need for improved functionalities in extreme environments is fuelling interest in high-entropy ceramics1-3. Except for the computational discovery of high-entropy carbides, performed with the entropy-forming-ability descriptor4, m ... Full text Cite

Exploring the organic–inorganic interface in biosilica: atomistic modeling of polyamine and silica precursors aggregation behavior

Journal article BMC Materials · December 2020 Featured Publication AbstractDiatoms are a significant group of algae displaying a sizeable morphological diversity, whose underlying structure arises from nanopatterned silica. Extensive experimental evidence suggests that a delicate interplay ... Full text Cite

Structure, nonstoichiometry, and geometrical frustration of α -tetragonal boron

Journal article Physical Review B · March 1, 2016 Featured Publication Recent discoveries of supposedly pure α-tetragonal boron require to revisit its structure. The system is also interesting with respect to a new type of geometrical frustration in elemental crystals, which was found in β-rhombohedral boron. Based on density ... Full text Cite

Photocatalytic degradation of pharmaceuticals present in conventional treated wastewater by nanoparticle suspensions

Journal article Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering · March 1, 2016 Featured Publication Pharmaceuticals have become an important public health issue as environmental pollutants over the last years. After ingestion, pharmaceuticals are partly excreted unchanged. They can reach the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) via the sewer network. Becaus ... Full text Cite
