Full Heusler alloys display a wide range of physical phenomena with potential applications in different areas. However, researchers still struggle to overcome many limiting factors optimize their functional properties. Particularly, the poor mechanical properties X2YZ series undermine its exploration as shape memory and solid-state cooling materials. Recently, suppression p–d covalent hybridization characteristic these came up promising approach, resulting novel compounds displaying enhanced...

We have produced Fe-doped paramagnetic MAPbI3 microwires by using a novel strategy involving self-assembly growth process of [PbI6]4– octahedral chains in the presence liquid water. Structural and morphological studies confirmed that after dissociation recrystallization process, doped samples preserved both perovskite structure with tetragonal phase microwire shape, while X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed mixed-valence Fe3+/Fe2+ ions negligible change PbI6 cage environment maximum...

Modeling quantum thermal machines provides a practical approach to describing the thermodynamic properties of technologies and devices. For this purpose, power-law potentials are often employed as working mediums cycles investigate concepts heat, work, efficiency. With in mind, we present results for Stirling Otto numerical modeling that use general power law potential with characteristic $q$ exponent. We calculate its energy spectra, showing it recovers traditional forms harmonic oscillator...
