In situ observation of the multistep process of cold sintering

May 15, 2024
Author(s)
Russell Maier
A compact cold sintering stage was constructed to densify ceramic samples in capillary tubes for the purpose of conducting in situ experiments designed to elucidate fundamental cold sintering mechanisms. The stage was used to successfully densify samples

In situ Probing of Interfacial Roughness and Transient Phases During Ceramic Cold Sintering Process

October 15, 2023
Author(s)
Fan Zhang, Russell Maier, Igor Levin, Andrew J. Allen, Jun-Sang Park, Peter Kenesei, Ivan Kuzmenko, Jan Ilavsky, Pete Jemian
The ceramic cold sintering process (CSP) offers an eco-friendly approach to producing fully dense ceramics at low temperatures. However, an incomplete mechanistic understanding hinders its optimization and widespread adoption. In this study, we analyze the

Effects of Octahedral Tilting on the Site of Substitution of Manganese in CaTiO3

January 22, 2021
Author(s)
Russell Maier, Kevin Garrity, Matthew P. Donohue, Andrzej Ozarowski, Igor Levin
Combined electron-paramagnetic-resonance and X-ray absorption spectroscopies with first principles calculations were used to investigate the substitutional behavior of Mn ions in perovskite CaTiO3 ceramics. While transition-metal dopants in perovskite

In situ characterization of ceramic cold sintering by small-angle scattering

January 1, 2021
Author(s)
Andrew J. Allen, Igor Levin, Russell Maier, Suzanne E. Witt, Fan Zhang, Ivan Kuzmenko
The first in situ characterization of the pore morphology evolution during the cold sintering process (CSP) is presented using small-angle X-ray scattering methods. For practical reasons, measurements have been made on a model system, KH2PO4 (KDP). The

Scalable microresonators for room-temperature detection of electron spin resonance from dilute, sub-nanoliter volume solids

October 28, 2020
Author(s)

Nandita S. Abhyankar, Amit K. Agrawal, Pragya R. Shrestha, Russell A. Maier, Robert D. McMichael, Jason P. Campbell, Veronika A. Szalai

Microresonators used for spin detection in volume-limited samples suffer from poor quality factors, which adversely affect sensitivity and ease of coupling to the microwave source. Here we adapt a metamaterial design with toroidal moment to confine

Approaches for the Quantitative Analysis of Oxidation State in Cerium Oxide Nanomaterials

September 21, 2018
Author(s)
Christopher M. Sims, Russell A. Maier, Aaron C. Johnston-Peck, Justin M. Gorham, Vincent A. Hackley, Bryant C. Nelson
Cerium oxide nanomaterials (nanoceria, CNMs) are receiving increased attention from the research community due to their unique chemical properties, most prominent of which is their ability to alternate between the Ce3+ and Ce4+ oxidation states. While many

Quantitative Analysis of Oxidation State in Cerium Oxide Nanomaterials

May 14, 2017
Author(s)
Christopher Sims, Russell Maier, Aaron Johnston-Peck, Justin Gorham, Vincent A. Hackley, Bryant C. Nelson
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) are receiving increased attention from the research community due to the large number and wide range of their current and potential applications. The attractiveness of nanoceria for these various applications is
