Summary: The stable domestic supply of gallium, indium, and germanium is crucial for the USA. Process residue from the recovery of zinc from electric arc furnace dusts could potentially serve as a source of these critical materials. An analysis of an industrial zinc leach residue revealed the main mineral phases, and leaching experiments with sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid were conducted to determine the extractions of gallium, indium, and germanium under varying conditions. The extraction of gallium was found to be similar to that of iron in all experiments, with maximum leaching percentages of 82% for Ga, close to 100% for Ge, and 89% for In.

Summary: Pollution of surface waters from anthropogenic activities is a global problem with significant impacts on ecosystems and living organisms. This study proposes the use of selected critical elements as indicators of anthropogenic pollution in the Biala Przemsza River. The results show that Te, Ge, and In can be reliable indicators, while Ga and Tl cannot due to their presence in natural deposits. Correlation analysis reveals significant relationships between these critical elements and other water parameters.

Summary: We conducted two-dimensional X-ray diffraction measurements during the formation of a silicon-germanium (SiGe) layer by a simple method of aluminum-germanium (Al-Ge) paste screen-printing and annealing. The study found that aluminum (Al) and germanium (Ge) in the Al-Ge paste enter the liquid phase at temperatures around 540°C and 430°C respectively. The SiGe layer grows epitaxially in the same direction as the silicon (Si) substrate by utilizing the liquid phase formed during the cooling process.

Summary: Sm(O,F)BiS2 superconducting single crystals with various nominal F contents were successfully grown using KI-KCl flux, with a solid solution limit of F at the O-site of less than 20 at%. Despite similar F concentration and c-axis lattice constants, the F concentrations in the single crystals were hardly controlled by nominal F contents, suggesting the presence of an intrinsic stable phase. The superconducting transition temperature increased with increasing nominal F contents within less than 70 at% in the O-site.

Summary: This study investigates the crystal orientation evolution and superconducting properties changes of REBCO superconductor tape under severe deformation. In-situ electron backscatter diffraction is used to observe the crystal orientation evolution in real-time, while the critical current and its angle dependence are measured under different tensile stresses. By comparing the microscopic and macroscopic results, the synergetic evolution mechanism is established, revealing the degradation mechanism of REBCO tapes and providing insight for improving their electromechanical properties.

Summary: The study utilizes the lossy nature of indium tin oxide (ITO) at epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) wavelength to design an electrically tunable metasurface absorber, achieving total absorption of reflected light through coupling of magnetic dipole resonance with ENZ wavelength. The metasurface can achieve high modulation depth at a specific bias voltage and is insensitive to incident light polarization due to its circular resonator design and symmetrical bias connections.

Summary: Ultrasonic irradiation of molten metals in liquid media causes dispersion of the metals into suspensions of micro- and nanoparticles that can be separated. This review article summarizes the various interactions and reactions that occur upon sonication of metals in liquid media, including simultaneous reduction of metal ions, reactions between metals, and formation of carbon dots doped with metal nanoparticles.

Summary: The study explores the use of complex structure modification to improve the mechanical properties of aluminium casting alloys, and a new modifying flux with complex effects on the structure of Al-Si alloys has been developed. The research found that the modifying flux had a significant impact on the macro- and microstructure of the alloys, resulting in improved tensile strength and elongation properties.
