The temperature dependence of the heat capacity CoFe 2 O 4 ferromagnet and 0.3CoFe -0.7PbTiO 3 multiferroic composite in range 150-820 K has been studied. over a wide range. It is noted that additional component due to transition cobalt or iron ions higher energy levels, as well distortion lattice parameters appearance three coexisting phases. Keywords: capacity, composite, Schottky effect.

A first principles density functional study into the bulk and surfaces properties of MAX-phase early transition metal silicon carbides points to their potential as carbon dioxide hydrogenation catalysts.
