Nanotwinned alloys under high pressure

Nanotwinned alloys are of interest due to their high strength and ductility, but twin boundaries may not be stable under shear. Computational studies indicate that high hydrostatic pressure may suppress detwinning mechanisms. Here, in this study, we investigate the microstructural changes of nanotwinned-nanocrystalline copper-nickel and Inconel 725 alloys under quasi-hydrostatic pressures up to 50 gigapascals (GPa). The alloys are compressed in a diamond anvil cell. In-situ x-ray diffraction (XRD) and ex-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were employed to monitor microstructural changes. Twin boundary deformation and grain growth occur at 11.4 GPa quasi-hydrostatic pressure in the copper-nickel alloy. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations reveal that hydrostatic pressure causes elevated local shear stress at grain boundaries, which leads to atomic rearrangements. A superposition of hydrostatic and deviatoric pressures lead to partial dislocation mediated twin boundary migration. In contrast, the Inconel 725 alloy showed stable twin and grain boundaries up to a quasi-hydrostatic pressure of 12.7 GPa. Texture, high solid solution strengthening, and low stacking fault energy are hypothesized to the enhanced microstructural stability in Inconel 725.

Pressure-induced cation and vacancy disorder-order transition and near-zero τ f in deficient hexagonal perovskite Ba 8 ZnTa 6 O 24 dielectrics

Pressure applications can enable the tuning of atomic/defect ordering and provide access to new functional materials. Here, in this study, we report that pressure-induced structural transformation featuring disorder-order transition of both cations and vacancies in the 8-layer deficient hexagonal perovskite tantalate dielectrics Ba 8 ZnTa 6 O 24 , which transformed the structure from twin to shift and remarkably lowered the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency τ f down to near zero (∼0.56 ppm/°C) from 38 ppm/°C for the twinned precursor. The atomic scale STEM-HAADF and EDS results confirm the ordering of Zn in the Ta host at the nanometer scale in the shifted material featuring well-ordered Ba 8 ZnTa 6 O 24 slabs intergrown with Ba 3 ZnTa 2 O 9 and Ba 5 Ta 4 O 15 monolayers and anti-phase grain boundaries as planar defects. The pressure-induced twin-shift structural transformation of Ba 8 ZnTa 6 O 24 features the rare constant concentration of the hexagonal stacked layers, which is allowed by the vacancy ordering at the central layers of face-shared octahedral (FSO) trimers avoiding the FSO B-B repulsion, and remarkably the faster cationic ordering kinetics compared with the 2:1 ordered complex perovskites. Although the inclusion of numerous planar defects and the oxidizable atomic defects led to significant p-type conduction and inhomogeneous electrical microstructures, resulting in an extraordinarily high extrinsic dielectric loss for the high-pressure shifted Ba 8 ZnTa 6 O 24 pellet, the intrinsically near-zero τ f could make the shifted Ba 8 ZnTa 6 O 24 perovskite an ideal microwave dielectric resonator candidate if the defects could be eliminated.

Resolving Lonsdaleite's decade-long controversy: Atomistic insights into a metastable diamond polymorph

Lonsdaleite, a theoretically proposed hexagonal diamond polymorph, has remained at the center of a five-decade scientific controversy since its 1967 identification. While some studies claim it exhibits superior hardness through compression-induced structural changes, others contend it is merely a stacking-faulted cubic diamond. Meteoritic samples and synthetic preparations have yielded conflicting evidence, with even advanced characterisation techniques like XRD and TEM failing to provide definitive proof. In this work, we employ first-principles density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to generate unambiguous theoretical fingerprints through XRD, Raman, and SAED patterns that distinguish true Lonsdaleite from cubic diamond and its defective variants. Our atomistic approach quantifies the thermodynamic metastability of Lonsdaleite under realistic pressure-temperature conditions, reveals distinct spectral signatures through simulated Raman and resolves the structural ambiguity through generalised stacking fault energy analysis. By establishing clear criteria for definitive identification, this study provides long-awaited clarity to the Lonsdaleite debate while offering a robust computational framework for characterising metastable carbon phases in meteoritic, synthetic and industrial materials.

Cyber-Physical Simulation of the Cold Startup of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell – Gas Turbine (SOFC-GT) Hybrid Systems

This work introduces experimental studies for the cold startup process (CPS) of the SOFC-GT hybrid system using the cyber-physical simulation approach. The physical gas turbine is coupled with a cyber-physical SOFC stack, which is represented using the integration of a real time dynamic SOFC model with physical components (e.g., pressure chamber, natural gas burner, etc.). Different ramp rates of the turbine speed were tested out during the startup processes. Bypass valves were also used to manipulate the airflow during SOFC-GT hybrid system start-up process. Different ramp rates enable the rapid start-up of the turbine to avoid surge and stall, meanwhile enable acceptable warm rate of the fuel cell stack without damaging the cell material. CPS can enable dynamic characterizations of highly integrated systems at lower cost.

Shock-induced phase transitions and stacking fault formation in additively manufactured eutectic high-entropy alloy Ni 40 Co 20 Fe 10 Cr 10 Al 18 W 2

Ni 40 Co 20 Fe 10 Cr 10 Al 18 W 2 additively manufactured using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is among the toughest as-built alloys reported and is a promising candidate for use in extreme environments. However, its behavior under multi-megabar pressure regimes remains unexplored. We used femtosecond in situ X-ray diffraction to investigate the shock response of LPBF Ni40Co20Fe10Cr10Al18W2 under laser-driven shock compression and release. Our results reveal that the initial dual-phase face-centered + body-centered structure transforms to a single face-centered phase over a wide pressure range of 84±10 to 277±55 GPa, followed by a transition to a single body-centered phase at 431±48 GPa. We establish the Hugoniot equation-of-state of LPBF Ni 40 Co 20 Fe 10 Cr 10 Al 18 W 2 and compare it to the benchmark alloy AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 , demonstrating the effects of W-doping and increased Al content. High stacking fault probabilities, close to those measured in Au and Ag, are observed upon compression. A portion of the stacking faults are annihilated upon release to ambient pressure.

Signatures of ambient pressure superconductivity in thin film La 3 Ni 2 O 7

Recently, the bilayer nickelate La 3 Ni 2 O 7 has been discovered as a new superconductor with transition temperature T c near 80 K under high pressure. Despite extensive theoretical and experimental work to understand the nature of its superconductivity, the requirement of extreme pressure restricts the use of many experimental probes and limits its application potential. Here, in this work, we present signatures of superconductivity in La 3 Ni 2 O 7 thin films at ambient pressure, facilitated by the application of epitaxial compressive strain. The onset T c varies approximately from 26 K to 42 K, with higher T c values correlating with smaller in-plane lattice constants. We observed the co-existence of other Ruddlesden-Popper phases within the films and dependence of transport behavior with ozone annealing, suggesting that the observed low zero resistance T c of around 2 K can be attributed to stacking defects, grain boundaries, and oxygen stoichiometry. This finding initiates numerous opportunities to stabilize and study superconductivity in bilayer nickelates at ambient pressure, and to facilitate the broad understanding of the ever-growing number of high temperature and unconventional superconductors in the transition metal oxides.

Compositional effect on pressure-induced polymorphism in high-entropy alloys

Recently, pressure-induced polymorphic phase transitions were discovered in several fragmented high-entropy alloys (HEAs), offering a valuable opportunity to deepen our understanding of these materials. However, the chemical and physical factors that govern these transitions are still unclear. Here, in this work, we combined in situ high-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction, X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) to systematically study the evolution of the atomic and electronic structures in the Cantor alloy and its face-centered-cubic ( fcc ) subset alloys (CoCrFeMnNi, CoCrFeNi, CoCrMnNi, CoFeMnNi, CoCrNi, CoFeNi, CoMnNi, CrFeNi, and FeMnNi). Surprisingly, diverse behavior was observed among these closely related alloys during compression and decompression, which includes irreversible, reversible fcc to hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase transitions, or even no detectable phase transitions up to ∼40 GPa. HRTEM measurements confirmed that the fcc and hcp phases abided by the classic Shoji-Nishiyama orientation relationship during the transitions. XES data indicated that high-pressure suppresses the local magnetic moments in all the studied alloys, suggesting that magnetic states do not significantly influence the polymorphic transitions. By comparing the effects of the atomic size difference, entropy, valence electron concentration, and stacking fault energy across all the compositions studied, only the stacking fault energy shows a strong correlation with the phase transitions, indicating it plays a key role in inducing polymorphism in HEAs.

Public Reference Data for Megawatt-Scale Hydrogen Electrolysis - Simulated Wave

The U.S. Department of Energy and the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) demonstrate hydrogen electrolysis, hydrogen compression and storage, and variable hydrogen fuel cell power production using megawatt-scale equipment at NLR’s Flatirons Campus as part of the Advanced Research on Integrated Energy Systems (ARIES) initiative. This dataset represents part of that effort and is intended for academic, national laboratory, industrial, and other stakeholders to plan, design, and validate models of megawatt-scale hydrogen technologies and diverse energy infrastructure nationwide. These data provide a baseline for how existing hydrogen electrolysis technologies perform when coupled with various energy technologies. Future datasets will demonstrate how existing hydrogen fuel cell technologies can provide controllable, dispatchable, and variable power output for artificial intelligence (AI) data centers and other variable loads. This dataset entry describes hydrogen production using a single, simulated wave energy conversion device. The electrolyzer is a 1.25-MW proton exchange membrane type MC250 system manufactured by Nel Hydrogen. While the unit supports up to 2.5 MW of electrolysis, NLR only has a single 1.25-MW electrolysis stack. For the wave energy, NLR used a wave energy converter model from PacWave. These devices can be equipped with accumulators and pressure relief values to smooth the power output by storing and releasing hydraulic energy. Using a peak power output of 10 MW, the model created two 25-minute profiles: one with and one without the accumulators and pressure relief valves. To down select the profile data from the native resolution of 20 Hz to 1 Hz, NLR took the mean of every 20 data points. NLR experimented with two simulated wave energy power plants: one that peaks at 10 MW, and one that peaks at 5 MW. These profiles were scaled for the physical 1.25 MW electrolyzer by multiplying the original profiles by one eighth and one quarter, respectively. The first profile matches the capacity rating of eight of the 1.25 MW electrolyzers, while the second matches four electrolyzers. Finally, NLR experimented with two settings for the electrolyzer power supply minimum and maximum current ramp rates (gain and slew): 200 and 400 amperes per second. The simulated profiles were translated from power (kilowatts) to current (amperes) using a curve fit with calibration data and sent to the electrolyzer power supply at 1-Hz frequency. These datasets report relevant hydrogen balance-of-plant and system data, all captured at 1 Hz, including hydrogen mass production measured with an Emerson Coriolis flow meter. Each .zip file represents a single wave electrolysis experiment and is formatted as follows: {technology}-{accumulator?}_{number of 1.25 MW electrolyzers connected}-{electrolyzer ramp rate in amperes/second} For instance, “wavePacWave-Noacc_4-400.zip” represents the 25 minute-long experiment using the PacWave’s wave energy converter model, equipped with no accumulator, connected to four 1.25-MW electrolyzers with their power supplies set to a maximum current ramp rate (gain and slew) of 400 A/s. Each .zip folder contains the following files: A .csv file containing raw data. An .xlsx file explaining all the fields in the raw data. A .png plot showing the time series of hydrogen production in kilograms per hour, electrolysis power consumption, and input wave power. An experiment, labeled “characterization_200.zip”, demonstrates the MC250 electrolyzer steady-state response with 30 minute load steps for a total duration of 5 hours. Finally, a .csv file is provided with all wave profiles combined into one dataset labeled "combined_wave_experiments.csv". NLR also built an AI/machine-learning predictive model based on these datasets. The model ingests the electrolyzer current command in amperes, as well as various pressures and temperatures across the system, and predicts hydrogen output in kilograms per hour. The complete model can be found at https://huggingface.co/NatLabRockies/ptmelt-hydrogen-electrolysis.

Multiport high-pressure synchrotron x-ray microscopy cell (CRADA Final Report)

The LBNL team developed a multiport cell allowing for fluid flow, with electrical contacts for sample bias, and with reference electrodes. The cell is currently installed and operating in beam-line 11.0.2 of the ALS, the Berkeley Synchrotron. The cell is closed by a membrane consisting of several stacked layers of graphene (1 to 3). The graphene membrane is supported on a 100 nm thick Si3N4 membrane covered with a 20 nm thin gold film for improved adhesion of the graphene and to ensure electrical conductivity. The Si3N4 film is perforated with a periodic array of holes 1 to 2 micrometers diameter. The cell can withhold an internal pressure (gas or liquid) of up to 10 atmospheres for in situ/operando studies using X-ray Photoelectron emission (XPS), and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS). It is also ideal for tip-enhanced nano-Infrared Spectroscopy studies of molecules at the interface between the graphene and the liquid or gas filling the cell. Materials studied in the LBNL laboratory are in the form of nanoparticles, or thin films (few nm) deposited on the side of the graphene membrane facing the solution or gas inside the cell.

From atomistic models to machine learning: Predictive design of nanocarbons under extreme conditions

The formation of technologically valuable nanocarbon structures under extreme conditions, such as those produced during high-explosive detonations, remains poorly understood but holds significant potential for the development of controlled synthesis pathways. While detonation shockwaves provide the high-pressure, high-temperature environment required for nanodiamond formation, subsequent cooling and decompression dictate whether the diamond phase is preserved or transformed into other nanocarbon structures. Here, in this study, we employ GPU-accelerated reactive molecular dynamics (ReaxFF) simulations to investigate the graphitization and structural remodeling of detonation nanodiamond under nonlinear quench and pressure-release trajectories. We further investigate how the initial nanodiamond morphology; cuboctahedral, octahedral, or hexagonal prism influences the resulting transformation products. Evolution of nanostructure, allotrope (via simulated x-ray diffraction), carbon hybridization, and ring statistics are tracked during a two-stage quench from 5000 K to 60 GPa. Rapid cooling combined with slow decompression optimizes cubic diamond retention, whereas slow cooling with rapid pressure release promotes surface-to-core graphitization, producing concentric sp 2 -hybridized layers and hollowed inner shells. Octahedral nanodiamonds evolve into carbon nano-onions, initially forming bucky diamonds that progressively transform into fully sp 2 -hybridized structures, while hexagonal prisms preferentially form parallel-stacked graphite layers resembling carbon dots. Transient hexagonal diamond (lonsdaleite) emerges as an interfacial phase, suggesting potential reversibility in the shock-induced graphite-to-diamond transformation pathway transformation route. To extend predictive capabilities, we trained machine learning (ML) regressors on over 10 5 node-hours of molecular dynamics (MD) trajectories. A multilayer perceptron (MLP) model reliably predicts the number of graphitized layers from temperature–pressure trajectories with a coefficient of determination (R 2 ) exceeding 0.90. This high predictive fidelity enables efficient, high-throughput mapping of the synthesis parameter space for optimized graphitization outcomes. Collectively, morphological control combined with optimized quench–decompression conditions promote the selective synthesis of nanocarbon allotropes. This work establishes a data-driven framework for the rational, a priori design of carbon nanomaterials for applications in energy storage, sensing, and biomedicine.

Production of Renewable Natural Gas from Waste Carbon Dioxide Sources (CRADA Final Report)

This CRADA provides new funding from SoCalGas and DOE's BETO and FCTO Offices focused hydrogen mass transfer limitations in H2@Scale processes. The project leverages the existing hydrogen production capabilities at the Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF) and SoCalGas' 700 L bioreactor system designed, built, and delivered to NLR under the first phase of this CRADA. This Joint Work Statement will cover new hardware modifications between NLR's electorlyzer stack and the SoCalGas bioreactor located outdoors. The new hardware and controls will provide researchers with the tools needed to obtain preliminary experimental data for a non-provisional application due in July 2019. The IP being developed is expected to improve the productivity of the bioreactor and would have wider impacts on other end-use processes using pressurized hydrogen (H2). In addition, this new funding enhances an existing BETO Biopower award by developing a 10-15 kW electrolyzer that is scalable to the MW-class with reduced capital cost and higher efficiency aimed at improving H2 mass transfer to downstream processes, like biomethanation. Finally due to the close-coupling between the electrolyzer stack and bioreactor, R&D will focus on cell retention, nutrient maintenance, optimal water management and process controls.

Electronic structure, self-doping, and superconducting instability in the alternating single-layer trilayer stacking nickelates La 3 ⁢Ni 2 ⁢O 7

Motivated by the recently proposed alternating single-layer trilayer stacking structure for the nickelate La 3 ⁢Ni 2 ⁢O 7 , we comprehensively study this system using ab initio and random-phase approximation techniques. Here, our analysis unveils similarities between this novel La 3⁢ Ni 2 ⁢O 7 structure and other Ruddlesden-Popper nickelate superconductors, such as a similar charge-transfer gap value and orbital-selective behavior of the eg orbitals. Pressure primarily increases the bandwidths of the Ni e g bands, suggesting an enhancement of the itinerant properties of those e g states. By changing the cell volume ratio V/V 0 from 0.9 to 1.10, we found that the bilayer structure in La 3 ⁢Ni 2 ⁢O 7 always has lower energy than the single-layer trilayer stacking La 3 ⁢Ni 2 ⁢O 7 . In addition, we observe a “self-doping” effect (compared to the average 1.5 electrons per eg orbital per site of the entire structure) from the trilayer to the single-layer sublattices and this effect will be enhanced by overall electron doping. Moreover, we find a leading d x 2 -y 2 -wave pairing state that is restricted to the single layer. Because the effective coupling between the single layers is very weak, due to the nonsuperconducting trilayer in-between, this suggests that the superconducting transition temperature T c in this structure should be much lower than in the bilayer structure.

A computational investigation of high-flux, plate-and-frame membrane modules for industrial carbon capture

In this work, we study the application of membrane-based separation systems for carbon capture, considering plate-and-frame membrane modules. The successful deployment of membrane CO 2 capture system relies on high-performing membranes as well as effective membrane modules that can fully exploit the developed membranes. A plate-and-frame membrane module is especially attractive for CO 2 capture from industrial flue gas due to its lower pressure drop compared to its counterparts such as spiral wound modules and hollow fiber modules. To design better plate-and-frame modules, we investigate their basic unit - a single membrane stack through a combination of computational modeling and experimental investigations. The modeling approach is based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to represent a multiphysics problem, including the fluid flow and diffusion processes within a membrane module. We use experimental data collected under different operating conditions to validate the CFD model. Numerical results suggest a good agreement between experiments and model outputs for the CO 2 recovery, CO 2 mole fraction in the retentate and permeate, and stage-cut. The CFD model is able to predict accurately the flow behavior, providing valuable insights on the effects of fluid dynamics on mass transfer of CO 2 . We also carry out a sensitivity analysis to identify the effect of key parameters on the CO 2 recovery and the CO 2 purity of the outlet streams.

Exceptional radiation resistance of hardened amorphous SiC under high-temperature hydrogen ion implantation

This study provides a compelling comparison of the structural and mechanical responses of single-crystal silicon carbide (sc-SiC), nanocrystalline silicon carbide (nc-SiC), and amorphous silicon carbide (am-SiC) to hydrogen ion implantation at 650 °C across three distinct fluences: low, medium, and high (LF, MF, HF). While both sc-SiC and nc-SiC exhibit blistering, microcracking, and exfoliation, am-SiC remains free of blisters, demonstrating superior resilience. Notably, nc-SiC, with its high density of stacking faults (SFs), requires a higher fluence to initiate blistering compared to sc-SiC. At high fluences, hydrogen accumulation at grain boundaries (GBs) in nc-SiC elevates internal gas pressure, intensifying exfoliation. In sc-SiC, blistering leads to increased hardness, whereas in nc-SiC, the degradation of the SF structure results in a reduction in hardness. In contrast, am-SiC undergoes structural relaxation during irradiation, resulting in a significant increase in hardness while maintaining its structural integrity, with only the formation of nano-sized spherical bubbles observed. Furthermore, these findings highlight the exceptional suitability of am-SiC for nuclear applications, where resistance to radiation-induced microcracking is critical.

Cyber-Physical Reformer Development at NETL

Integrated energy systems are considered one of promising technologies to provide efficient, reliable and resilient power generation. The U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory is building an automated reformer-solid oxide fuel cell-gas turbine integrated energy system using a cyber-physical systems (CPS) approach, which exploits the advantage of both numerical model and physical system, as well as gapping the inaccessible technologies. Both the fuel reformer and the fuel cell stack are designed to be CPS components, of which the hardware representations are physically integrated with the gas turbine. A compact design is used with the consideration of future commercialization by placing all components inside of a pressure chamber, which is pressurized by the compressor discharge.

Bipolar plate flow channel designs for vanadium redox flow battery: a review

Vanadium redox flow battery is one of the preferred systems for grid scale energy storage due to long service life (>20000 cycles), higher efficiency (>85 %), deep discharge capability (>95 % DoD), and inherent scalability and safety. Among system components, flow field is most critical as it governs electrolyte distribution, mass transport and hydraulic performance. Here, this review examines emerging flow channel geometries, highlighting the impact of channel width (0.66 to 1.5 mm), depth (1 to 1.5 mm) and land width (0.5 to 1.5 mm) can reduce pressure drop to <10 kPa while enabling power densities above 600 mW.cm -2 . A key finding is that low channel width to depth ratio (<1) enhances voltage and energy efficiencies by improving under rib convection. The review also provides an overview of progress and perspective in bipolar plate materials, manufacturability, and shunt current mitigation strategies for stack scaling up. Cost analysis emphasizes the influence of flow field designs on the levelized cost of storage and pathways towards the US DOE's $\$$0.05 per kWh energy generation cost target. In addition, opportunities for AI/ML/DT tools assisted design and data driven optimization strategies are also outlined to accelerate next generation flow field development.
