Summary: The thermal stability of a composition Zr60Co27Al13 was analyzed under both a monolithic amorphous state and symbiotic primary crystal-glass state. It was found that the symbiotic metallic glass is more stable than the monolithic metallic glass due to the consumption of short-range order clusters, relaxation in atomic dimensions, and more homogenous elemental distribution in the residual amorphous regions. This research may contribute to the development of metallic glasses with higher thermal stability.

Summary: This study investigates the reaction products in alkali activated materials (AAMs) synthesized from (Na-Mg) aluminosilicate glasses, revealing the existence of an amorphous magnesium silicate (AMS) phase instead of magnesium silicate hydrate (M-S-H) in Mg-containing AAMs. The formation of AMS is driven by the high charge density of the Mg cation, while the absence of hydrotalcite-group phases is attributed to aluminum depletion caused by zeolite formation.

Summary: The layered crystal structure of Cr2Ge2Te6 exhibits ferromagnetic ordering in the two-dimensional limit, making it a promising candidate for spintronic applications. However, the non-crystalline phase induced by external voltage pulses may lead to changes in the magnetic properties. This study demonstrates that Cr2Ge2Te6 preserves its spin-polarized nature in the amorphous phase but undergoes a magnetic transition to a spin glass state at low temperatures. Quantum-mechanical computations reveal that this transition is due to strong distortions in the Cr-Te-Cr bonds and the overall increase in disorder upon amorphization. The tunable magnetic properties of Cr2Ge2Te6 can be utilized for multifunctional magnetic phase-change devices that can switch between crystalline and amorphous states.

Summary: In this study, we developed a criterion based on the chemical composition to determine whether metallic glasses (MGs) can be rejuvenated. By studying six different MG systems, we found that the rejuvenated MGs have a slow diffusion process at high temperatures. Additionally, the rejuvenated MGs showed large negative mixing enthalpy and large mismatch entropy, indicating a close correlation with the glass-forming ability. These findings advance our understanding of the rejuvenation mechanism in MGs, and establish a correlation between the chemical composition and rejuvenation.

Summary: Metal halide perovskites have excellent optical and electronic properties, but their limited stability under ambient conditions hampers their potential commercialization. Encapsulation of perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) within amorphous oxide glass matrices has been widely studied as a method to improve stability while maintaining advantageous optical properties. This article provides a brief introduction to all-inorganic metal halide PeNCs and amorphous oxide glasses, reviews methods to fabricate and enhance the quality of PeNC@glass composites, and presents examples of their applications in various fields.

Summary: Modeling the first oxygen-oxygen peak in a glass can provide structural information about other correlations, such as the calculation of O-O coordination number from network theory and the determination of Na-O bond length distribution in a sodium silicate glass. The study also shows that sodium ions in the glass are bonded primarily to non-bridging oxygens (NBOs) and have a more widely distributed Na-O bond lengths compared to sodium silicate crystal structures.

Summary: This study investigates the spectroscopic properties of uranium in two historical glasses, including a green soda-lime-silica uranium glass bowl from the 1920s-1930s Art Deco period (Bagley Carnival) and a yellow full lead crystal uranium glass vase from the 1930s-1940s (Thomas Webb). The results suggest that the uranium speciation differs between the two glasses, with the Webb glass containing more reduced uranium species (U(V)) than the Bagley glass. These differences can be attributed to the fining procedure and variations in the base glass composition.

Summary: This study discusses the potential routes for the glass industry to achieve net-zero in line with the current UK decarbonization policy. Biomass ash is seen as a viable alternative material for low-carbon glass production as it contains advantageous components. Simple sieving processes effectively remove impurities from biomass ash, while washing of the ashes purifies the material. The use of biomass ash in glass production has minimal impact on the color and redox state of glass.

Summary: In this study, a composite electrode composed of Ti/TiH2/beta-PbO2_Mn3O4@C was fabricated and investigated for zinc electrowinning. The composite electrode exhibited low overpotential, Tafel slope, icorr, and high voltage stability, outperforming most reported Ti-based PbO2 electrode materials. The excellent catalytic activity can be attributed to the low resistance and porous interlayer of TiH2 nanosheets, as well as the addition of Mn3O4@C micro-flakes to the active layer.
