Materials Data on RbAs by Materials Project

RbAs is Magnesium tetraboride-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six As1- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–As bond distances ranging from 3.47–3.90 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five As1- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–As bond distances ranging from 3.44–3.64 Å. There are two inequivalent As1- sites. In the first As1- site, As1- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to five Rb1+ and two equivalent As1- atoms. There are one shorter (2.53 Å) and one longer (2.55 Å) As–As bond lengths. In the second As1- site, As1- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six Rb1+ and two equivalent As1- atoms.

Probing Phosphorus Solubility and Its Effect on Critical Temperature ( T c ) in the Helical Superconducting Magnet RbEuFe 4 As 4– x P x

RbEuFe 4 As 4 exhibits a rare combination of high-temperature superconductivity and noncollinear magnetism, originating from the FeAs and Eu layers, respectively. In order to fine-tune its superconducting and magnetic properties, we studied P-doped RbEuFe 4 As 4–x P x . To determine the value of x for which RbEuFe 4 As 4–x P x exists, members of the series have been synthesized in the form of relatively large-sized single crystals by a high-temperature flux growth technique using RbAs flux as well as polycrystalline powder by direct combination reactions between RbFe 2 As 2 and EuFe 2 As 2–x P x . The flux crystal growth reactions indicate that RbEuFe 4 As 4–x P x forms with the values of x ≤ 0.12, which is corroborated by the Rietveld refinement analysis on the products obtained from direct combination reactions. The solubility limit exists primarily due to the preferential site As(2) occupation by P in the RbEuFe 4 As 4 crystal structure. Finally, as x increases in RbEuFe 4 As 4–x P x , magnetization measurements reveal that the superconducting critical transition temperature (T c ) decreases, while the magnetic ordering temperature (T N ) remains almost unchanged in comparison to undoped RbEuFe 4 As 4 .

General Employee Radiological Training: 24 Month Refresher (Course #47968)

GERT is required by the 10 CFR 835, the Federal Regulation on Radiation Protection that we follow here at LANL. It’s the training for non Rad Workers who may enter Radiological Controlled Areas (RCAs) and Radioactive Material Areas (RMAs) in an unescorted manner. If your work assignment requires access to areas posted for higher radiological hazards like Radiological Buffer Areas (RBAs), Radiation Areas, Contamination Areas, and others you are required to have Rad Worker training. Once you complete this training you will be qualified to access RCAs and RMAs at LANL without an escort. However, you are not qualified to operate radiation producing devices, work with radioactive material, or do work where you may receive greater than 100 mrem of exposure in a year.
