Polarons are quasiparticles that easily form in polarizable materials due to the coupling of
excess electrons or holes with ionic vibrations. These quasiparticles manifest themselves in …

Verwey transition (VT) of Fe3O4 has been extensively investigated as this results in sharp
changes in its physical properties. Exploitation of VT for potential applications in spin/charge …

The progress of inexpensive, high-efficiency, and steady oxygen evolution reaction (OER)
electrocatalysts is of great importance to promoting water splitting for green hydrogen …

Antimony and bismuth⟨ 111⟩ layered perovskites have recently attracted significant
attention as possible, nontoxic alternatives to lead halide perovskites. Unlike lead halide …

Phase-change materials (PCMs) and metal-insulator transition (MIT) materials have the
unique feature of changing their material phase through external excitations such as …

Fundamental electronic principles underlying all transition metal compounds are the
symmetry and filling of the d-electron orbitals and the influence of this filling on structural …

The Verwey transition in magnetite (Fe3O4) is the first metal–insulator transition ever
observed and involves a concomitant structural rearrangement and charge–orbital ordering …

The nature of the Verwey transition occurring at TV≈ 125 K in magnetite (Fe3O4) has been
an outstanding problem over many decades. A complex low temperature electronic order …

A novel type of sub-lattice of the Jahn-Teller (JT) centers was arranged in Ti-doped barium
hexaferrite BaFe12O19. In the un-doped crystal all iron ions, sitting in five different …

The magnetite Fe3O4, being anciently known magnetic material to human kind and
remaining in leading positions for development of advanced technologies presently …
