The New Laves Phase Na2Ba

After preliminary investigations o f the B a -N a N system, resulting in the discovery of the first sub-nitride NaBa3N [1], we decided to examine more closely the intermetallic phases formed by the two metals, leading to the discovery of the new Laves phase N a2Ba. The literature contains a variety o f conflicting reports concerning N a -B a intermetallic phases. The standard references for bin...

Ferromagnetism in Laves-phase WFe2 nanoparticles

Electronic Structure and Magnetovolume Instabilities of the Hexagonal Laves Phase Compound Fe2Ti

We investigate the electronic and cohesive properties of the hexagonal and cubic Laves phases of Fe2Ti by ab initio band structure calculations. In particular the stability range of these compounds is studied. In the volume range considered, the state of lowest energy is hexagonal (C14) and exhibits antiferromagnetic order. However, we find a slightly higher in energy lying ferromagnetic state ...
