Summary:

This dissertation by Aurelija Mockutė explores the synthesis and properties of new MAX phase alloys, focusing on incorporating previously unconsidered M and X elements to achieve novel characteristics. The research emphasizes the use of manganese (Mn) to attain magnetic properties and oxygen (O) for tuning transport properties. Through a combinatorial approach involving magnetron sputtering and cathodic arc deposition, the study presents the first experimental evidence of Mn incorporation in MAX phases, identifying (Cr,Mn)2AlC, (Cr,Mn)2GeC, and (Cr,Mn)2GaC as the first magnetic MAX phases. The dissertation provides insights into the structural and magnetic properties of these materials, expanding the definition of MAX phases and their potential applications. The work targets researchers and professionals in materials science, particularly those focused on thin film physics and advanced material synthesis. Generated by AI.
