We have discovered a new compound of the composition ScPd2Al3 crystallizing in unknown structure type. Moreover, ScPd2Al3 reveals polymorphism. We have found an orthorhombic crystal structure at room temperature and a high temperature cubic phase. The polymorphic phases are separated by a reversible first order transition at 1053{deg}C with a hysteresis of 19{deg}C. ScPd2Al3 exists as a very stable intermetallic phase just in the vicinity of the icosahedral quasicrystal Tsai-type i-phase Al54Pd30Sc16.

We report a combined experimental and theoretical study of the PdSe2-xTex system. With increasing Te fraction, structural evolutions, first from an orthorhombic phase (space group Pbca) to a monoclinic phase (space group C2/c) and then to a trigonal
phase (space group P-3m1), are observed accompanied with clearly distinct electrical transport behavior. The monoclinic phase (C2/c) is a completely new polymorphic phase and is discovered within a narrow range of Te composition (0.3 leq x leq 0.8). This phase has a different packing sequence from all known transition metal dichalcogenides to date. Electronic calculations and detailed transport analysis of the new polymorphic PdSe1.3Te0.7 phase are presented. In the trigonal phase region, superconductivity with enhanced critical temperature is also observed within a narrow range of Te content (1.0 leq x leq 1.2). The rich phase diagram, new polymorphic structure as well as abnormally enhanced superconductivity could further stimulate more interest to explore new types of polymorphs and investigate their transport and electronic properties in the transition metal dichalcogenides family that are of significant interest.
In this work, we have thoroughly studied the effects of flux composition and temperature on the crystal growth of the BaCu2As2 compound. While Pb and CuAs self-flux produce the well-known {alpha}-phase ThCr2Si2-type structure (Z=2), a new polymorphic
phase of BaCu2As2 (b{eta} phase) with a much larger c lattice parameter (Z=10), which could be considered an intergrowth of the ThCr2Si2- and CaBe2Ge2-type structures, has been discovered via Sn flux growth. We have characterized this structure through single-crystal X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) studies. Furthermore, we compare this new polymorphic intergrowth structure with the {alpha}-phase BaCu2As2 (ThCr2Si2 type with Z=2) and the b{eta}-phase BaCu2Sb2 (intergrowth of ThCr2Si2 and CaBe2Ge2 types with Z=6), both with the same space group I4/mmm. Electrical transport studies reveal p-type carriers and magnetoresistivity up to 22% at 5 K and under a magnetic field of 7 T. Our work suggests a new route for the discovery of new polymorphic structures through flux and temperature control during material synthesis.
Based on density functional calculations, we propose that ZrMn_2 is a polymorphic material. We predict that at low temperatures the cubic C15, and the hexagonal C14 and C36 structures of the Laves phase compound ZrMn_2 are nearly equally stable withi
n 0.3 kJmol^{-1} or 30 K. This degeneracy occurs when the Mn atoms magnetize spontaneously in a ferromagnetic arrangement forming the states of lowest energy. From the temperature dependent free energies at T approx 160K we predict a transition from the most stable C15 to the C14 structure, which is the experimentally observed structure at elevated temperatures.
Thin film quasicrystal coatings have unique properties such as very high electrical and thermal resistivity and very low surface energy. A nano quasicrystalline thin film of icosahedral Al-Ga-Pd-Mn alloy, has produced by flash evaporation followed by
annealing. Attempts will be made to discuss the micromechanisms for the formation of quasicrystalline thin film in Al-Ga-Pd-Mn alloys
Two different precipitate hardening aluminium alloys processed by friction stir welding were investigated. The microstructure and the hardness of the as delivered materials were compared to that of the weld nugget. Transmission electron microscopy ob
servations combined with three-dimensional atom probe analyses clearly show that beta; precipitates dissolved in the nugget of the Al-Mg-Si giving rise to some supersaturated solid solution. It is shown that the dramatic softening of the weld could be partly recovered by post-welding ageing treatments. In the Al-Mg-Sc alloy, Al3Sc precipitate size and density are unchanged in the nugget comparing to the base metal. These precipitates strongly reduce the boundary mobility of recrystallised grains, leading to a grain size in the nugget much smaller than in the Al-Mg-Si alloy. Both coherent and incoherent precipitates were detected. This feature may indicate that a combination of continuous and discontinuous recrystallisation occurred in the weld nugget.
