A new scientific article co-authored by researcher-lecturers, and a doctoral student of Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University (ASOIU) has been published in a prestigious international journal.
The paper, prepared by an international research team including ASOIU researcher, Doctor of Chemical Sciences Dunya Babanly, Head of the “Nanomaterials and Nanotechnologies” Research Laboratory under the Faculty of Oil-Mechanical Engineering at ASOIU, PhD in Chemistry Elnur Orujlu, and doctoral student Fuad Safarov, has been published in the Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials. The journal is one of the well-established and reputable Elsevier publications in the field of magnetism and magnetic materials.
It should be noted that Fuad Safarov is a doctoral student working within the framework of a joint collaboration between Azerbaijan-French University (UFAZ), ASOIU, University of Strasbourg (UNISTRA), and the French National Centre for Scientific Research.
The article titled “Phase equilibria in the MnSb₂Te₄ – GeSb₂Te₄ system and magnetic properties of Mn₁₋ₓGeₓSb₂Te₄ solid solutions” was prepared within the framework of international collaboration with the University of Strasbourg and IPCMS (CNRS).
The study investigates the interplay between magnetic and topological properties, which is highly relevant in modern materials science. Within the research, the effect of germanium substitution on the structure and magnetic behavior of the material was examined, phase equilibria in the MnSb₂Te₄ – GeSb₂Te₄ system were determined, and a phase diagram was constructed. The results showed that germanium substitution was successfully achieved across different compositions, various magnetic transitions occur in the materials, and specific magnetic phenomena were observed in certain samples.
The obtained findings provide an important scientific basis for the selection of new magnetic topological materials, the growth of single crystals, and further in-depth research in this field.
