Thermal properties of Cu2S binary copper sulfides by М.М. Кубенова, К.А. Кутербеков, М.Х. Балапанов, Р.Х. Ишембетов, Г.Д. Кабдрахимова, Р.А. Алина, М. Татай, Р. Ильдос

“… Copper chalcogenides have a complex electronic structure due to the interaction of hybridized s- and p-states of chalcogen forming a valence band with 3d states of copper, which greatly complicates the interpretation of temperature dependences of kinetic parameters having a nonmonotonic character. Cu2S copper sulfide is an effective thermoelectric material, so it is interesting to study its kinetic parameters of solid solutions that it forms with alkali metals. …”

The connection between the accumulation of structural defects caused by proton irradiation and the destruction of the near-surface layer of Li4SiO4 – Li2TiO3 ceramics by Inesh E. Kenzhina, Artem L. Kozlovskiy, Aktolkyn Tolenova, Meiram Begentayev, Saulet Askerbekov

“…Moreover, in contrast to other types of ceramics, the presence of lithium in the composition of the samples under study leads to limitations in the use of classical analysis methods (scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive analysis or optical spectroscopy) of structural changes caused by the accumulation of radiation damage, which requires the use of more complex methods for the assessment of the defect concentration in the structure, as well as establishing their relationship with the deterioration of strength and thermophysical parameters, playing a key role in determining the stability mechanisms and further exploitation of ceramics for tritium production. …”
