Emergence of Kondo-assisted Néel order in a Kondo necklace model
Abstract The interplay between Kondo screening and magnetic order has long been a central issue in the physics of strongly correlated systems. While the Kondo effect has traditionally been understood to suppress magnetism through the formation of local singlets, recent studies suggest that Kondo…

Stress-induced amorphization as a transformation plasticity mechanism demonstrated in forsterite
Abstract Although stress-induced amorphization has recently been identified as a new and distinctive plasticity mechanism, a formal framework for its systematic application in materials engineering is still lacking. In this study, we establish that stress-induced amorphization in Mg2SiO4 forsterite…
