Abstract:An important frontier in materials science is to understand, characterize and quantize disorder in inorganic materials and its relation to their properties. This requires deep knowledge of both the average structure and the defects present in the samples. Spinel-type compounds form a family of industrially relevant materials1 that potentially exhibit both atomic and/or magnetic disorder.2, 3 Spinel ferrites, AFe2O4, in particular have seen use in high-frequency applications due to their magnetism in conjunctio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
