Electronic states of intrinsic surface and bulk vacancies in FeS2.
TL;DR: The presence of surface states is observed to cause a reduction in the band gap at the (100) surface, which was captured computationally and experimentally using tunneling spectroscopy measurements in this work and has important implications for the reactivity of pyrite.

Modified Oxygen Defect Chemistry at Transition Metal Oxide Heterostructures Probed by Hard X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and X-ray Diffraction
Yan Chen,Dillon D. Fong,F. William Herbert,Julien E. Rault,Jean-Pascal Rueff,Nikolai Tsvetkov,Bilge Yildiz +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) and high resolution Xray diffraction (HRXRD) was used to probe the local oxygen defect distribution across the buried interfaces of oxide heterolayers.

Non-equilibrium oxidation states of zirconium during early stages of metal oxidation
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of non-equilibrium valence states between Zr0 and Zr4+ at the metal-oxide interface was investigated and the presence of local strong electric fields and the minimization of interfacial energy were assessed.
Magnetic diffusion anomaly at the Néel temperature of pyrrhotite, Fe1−xS
TL;DR: These constitute the first set of consistent diffusivity data obtained in magnetic pyrrhotite, allowing more accurate prediction of pyrRhotite growth rates and determination of magnetic properties for synthetic devices.

Nanoindentation Induced Deformation Near Grain Boundaries of Corrosion Resistant Nickel Alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, the damage accumulation behavior of different grain boundary structures in Inconel 690 (Ni-29wt%Cr-9wt%Fe) was investigated in the presence of large, localized plastic strains induced by nanoindentation.
