Investigating the structure-property relationships of solid state materials can help improve many of the materials we use each day in life. It can also lead to the discovery of materials with interesting and unforeseen properties. In this work the structure property relationships of newly discovered layered oxypnictide phases are presented...
This work prepared YInMnO3, YCuTiO3, and YInFeO3 solid state pigments via microwave synthesis. The microwave-prepared pigments contain optical and structural properties similar to their furnace homologues. Overall synthesis times for each pigment have been significantly reduced via microwave synthesis, while keeping the same relative phase purity as solid-state.

The solid solutions of InGa₁₋ₓFeₓCuO₄, InFeCu₁₋ₓMgₓO₄, and InGa₁₋ₓFeₓCu₁₋ₓMgₓO₄ were
synthesized and characterized through the use of X – ray and neutron diffraction, and DC –
magnetism measurements. All compositions of InGa₁₋ₓFeₓCuO₄ are single phase and crystallize
in the R3m space group, but a transformation to the spinel InFeMgO₄ structure was...
The future of iron pnictide superconductors in technology is still undecided. While these materials are now known to possess high critical temperatures and critical magnetic fields processing methods for these materials are still in their infancy. Recently we have been investigating possible ways to speed up the synthetic process for...
Filled skutterudites are promising thermoelectric materials due to reduced thermal
conductivity upon inserting a guest atom or 'rattler' into the CoSb₃ structure. By using an
indium rattler dimensionless Figure of Merit (ZT) values > 1 at 650 K have been reported.
The conventional synthesis of these compounds typically takes several...
Magnetic and gravity modelling was completed along two E-W transects offshore central Oregon. These models indicate that the backstop-forming western edge of the Siletz terrane has a seaward dip of approximately 40° to 49° at 44°48'N, shallowing to ~28° at 44°1 1 'N. This is a well-determined result, given available...
