In the nonmetallic state of the organic superconductor k-~BEDT-TTF)2Cu@N(CN)2#Br synthesized with deuterated BEDT-TTF molecule, an angle-dependent electron spin resonance signal below 6–8 K was found. This is interpreted in terms of an antiferromagnetic resonance. The signal was found only when the sample was rapidly cooled, corresponding to the characteristics in that the present salt stays cl...

The basic physics and technological aspects of application of the electromagnetic impulses for the obtaining of permanent connections from pipes, for compacting of powders and for shaping of details from metallic and nonmetallic materials are analyzed. The recommendations on choice of parameters of the equipment (pulsed electromagnetic fields generator) and of the tool (magnetic coil) for the a...

Layered compounds AMnBi2 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba, or rare earth element) have been established as Dirac materials. Dirac electrons generated by the two-dimensional (2D) Bi square net in these materials are normally massive due to the presence of a spin-orbital coupling (SOC) induced gap at Dirac nodes. Here we report that the Sb square net in an isostructural compound BaMnSb2 can host nearly massless D...

Impurities are often driven to segregate to grain boundaries, which can significantly alter a material's thermal stability and mechanical behavior. To provide a comprehensive picture of this issue, the influence of a wide variety of common nonmetallic impurities (H, B, C, N, O, Si, P and S) incorporated during service or materials processing are studied using first-principles simulations, with ...

We have investigated the structural, electronic, and vibrational properties of graphene oxide based on first-principles density-functional calculations. A twist-boat conformation is identified as the energetically most favorable nonmetallic configuration for fully oxidized graphene. The calculated Raman G-band blue shift is in very good agreement with experimental observations. Our results prov...

The demand for decreasing CO2-emission and harmful material content of the exhaust gas passenger cars requires improvement entire powertrain including applied lubricants. One possible future engines lubricant can be nano-sized ceramic particles, which provide positive tribological properties also in presence nonmetallic surface materials. This paper presents experimental investigation ZrO2 nano...

Recently in Thailand, the recycling process of waste printed circuit board (WPCB) has retained a large volume of nonmetallic fraction (NMF), which has entered the industrial waste stream and awaits an appropriate treatment to be suggested. The aim of this paper was to assess environmental impacts of the recycled nonmetallic fraction from waste printed circuit board in Thailand, using the ReCiPe...
