We propose a mathematical description of crystal structure: underlying translational periodicity together with the distinct atomic positions up to the symmetry operations in the unit cell. It is consistent with the international table of crystallography. By the Cauchy-Born hypothesis, such a description can be integrated with the theory of continuum mechanics to calculate a derived crystal structure produced by solid-solid phase transformation. In addition, we generalize the expressions for orientation relationship between the parent lattice and the derived lattice. The derived structure rationalizes the lattice parameters and the general equivalent atomic positions that assist the indexing process of X-ray diffraction analysis for low symmetry martensitic materials undergoing phase transformation. The analysis is demonstrated in a CuAlMn shape memory alloy. From its austenite phase (L2_1 face-centered cubic structure), we identify that the derived martensitic structure has the orthorhombic symmetry Pmmm with derived lattice parameters a_dv = 4.36491 AA, b_dv = 5.40865 AA and c_dv = 4.2402 AA, by which the complicated X-ray Laue diffraction pattern can be well indexed, and the orientation relationship can be verified.

The application of stress to multiphase solid-liquid systems often results in morphological instabilities. Here we propose a solid-solid phase transformation model for roughening instability in the interface between two porous materials with differen
t porosities under normal compression stresses. This instability is triggered by a finite jump in the free energy density across the interface, and it leads to the formation of finger-like structures aligned with the principal direction of compaction. The model is proposed as an explanation for the roughening of stylolites - irregular interfaces associated with the compaction of sedimentary rocks that fluctuate about a plane perpendicular to the principal direction of compaction.
Adding thermal conductivity enhancements to increase thermal power in solid-liquid phase-change thermal energy storage modules compromises volumetric energy density and often times reduces the mass and volume of active phase change material (PCM) by
well over half. In this study, a new concept of building thermal energy storage modules using high-conductivity, solid-solid, shape memory alloys is demonstrated to eliminate this trade-off and enable devices that have both high heat transfer rate and high thermal capacity. Nickel titanium, Ni50.28Ti49.36, was solution heat treated and characterized using differential scanning calorimetry and Xenon Flash to determine transformation temperature (78deg-C), latent heat (183 kJm-3), and thermal conductivity in the Austenite and Martensite phases (12.92/12.64 Wm-1K-1). Four parallel-plate thermal energy storage demonstrators were designed, fabricated, and tested in a thermofluidic test setup. These included a baseline sensible heating module (aluminum), a conventional solid-liquid PCM module (aluminum/1-octadecanol), an all-solid-solid PCM module (Ni50.28Ti49.36), and a composite solid-solid/solid-liquid PCM module (Ni50.28Ti49.36/1-octadecanol). By using high-conductivity solid-solid PCMs, and eliminating the need for encapsulants and conductivity enhancements, we are able to demonstrate a 1.73-3.38 times improvement in volumetric thermal capacity and a 2.03-3.21 times improvement in power density as compared to the conventional approaches. These experimental results are bolstered by analytical models to explain the observed heat transfer physics and reveal a 5.86 times improvement in thermal time constant. This work demonstrates the ability to build high-capacity and high-power thermal energy storage modules using multifunctional shape memory alloys and opens the door for leap ahead improvement in thermal energy storage performance.
A phase-field crystal model based on the density-field approach incorporating high-order interparticle direct correlations is developed to study vapor-liquid-solid coexistence and transitions within a single continuum description. Conditions for the
realization of the phase coexistence and transition sequence are systematically analyzed and shown to be satisfied by a broad range of model parameters, demonstrating the high flexibility and applicability of the model. Both temperature-density and temperature-pressure phase diagrams are identified, while structural evolution and coexistence among the three phases are examined through dynamical simulations. The model is also able to produce some temperature and pressure related material properties, including effects of thermal expansion and pressure on equilibrium lattice spacing, and temperature dependence of saturation vapor pressure. This model can be used as an effective approach for investigating a variety of material growth and deposition processes based on vapor-solid, liquid-solid, and vapor-liquid-solid growth.
Ternary nitride materials hold promise for many optical, electronic, and refractory applications yet their preparation via solid-state synthesis remains challenging. Often, high pressures or reactive gasses are used to manipulate the effective chemic
al potential of nitrogen, yet these strategies require specialized equipment. Here we report on a simple two-step synthesis using ion-exchange reactions that yield rocksalt-derived MgZrN$_2$ and Mg$_2$NbN$_3$, as well as layered MgMoN$_2$. All three compounds show nearly temperature-independent and weak paramagnetic responses to an applied magnetic field at cryogenic temperatures indicating phase pure products. The key to synthesizing these ternary materials is an initial low-temperature step (300-450 $^{circ}$C) to promote Mg-M-N bond formation. Then the products are annealed (800-900 $^{circ}$C) to increase crystalline domains of the ternary product. Calorimetry experiments reveal that initial reaction temperatures are determined by phase transitions of reaction precursors, whereas heating directly to high temperatures results in decomposition. These two-step reactions provide a rational guide to material discovery of other bulk ternary nitrides.
We present the results of an experiment where amorphous carbon was irradiated by femtosecond x-ray free electron laser pulses. The 830 eV laser pulses induce a phase transition in the material which is characterized ex-situ. The phase transition ener
gy threshold is determined by measuring the surface of each irradiated area using an optical Nomarski microscope. The threshold fluence is found to be 282 +/- 11 mJ/cm^2, corresponding to an absorbed dose at the surface of 131 +/-5 meV/atom. Atomic force microscopy measurements show volume expansion of the irradiated sample area, suggesting a solid to solid phase transition. Deeper insight into the phase transition is gained by using scanning photoelectron microscopy and micro-Raman spectroscopy. Photoelectron microscopy shows graphitization, i.e. modification from sp3 to sp2 hybridization, of the irradiated material. The micro-Raman spectra show the appearance of local order, i.e. formation of graphite nanocrystals. Finally, the nature of the phase transition is discussed, taking into account previous theory and experimental results.
