摘要

Material synthesis and material manipulation using shear stress under compression have been conducted to enhance electronic functionalities of inorganic magnets and superconductors. Through the shear stress under compression, dislocation-like defects are inserted, which result in grain structure changes. During subsequent pressure release, lattice strains occur at the unit-cell level, such as anisotropic change in lattice parameters and/or lattice expansion, resulting in the creation of novel functionalities in electronic materials. Here, we demonstrate the possibility of stabilizing novel metastable materials using shear stress under high pressure through high-pressure torsion (HPT) processing. Metastable states created via HPT processing, which may be regarded as excited states, can be modified by simultaneous and/or successive heating. Regarding successful properties in the metastable states, high-Tc superconductivity appears in single-element metals such as Re with lattice expansion accompanied by an increase in density-of-states at Fermi energy and Ba with residual high-pressure phases accompanied by strained unit cell, Al-Ti oxides characterized by Magnéli phases with unique valence states, and hyperoxia cuprates of La2CuO4 with carrier control via oxygen defects. These features are different from those in high-quality materials obtained via the high-pressure synthesis using isotropic compression at high temperature.
