Xiaofeng Jin of Fudan University in Shanghai and colleagues in China, Italy and the US have made nickel with a body-centred cubic structure and shown that it is ferromagnetic. However, its magnetic ...

Nickel, Ni: Index: Nickel is a metal in group VIII of the periodic table with atomic number 29, an atomic weight of 58.71, ... (4s) 2, and the atomic radius is 0.124 nm. At room temperature the ...

IT has been shown by one of us1 that, at ordinary temperatures, the structure of nickel oxide is slightly deformed from face-centred cubic symmetry. Later work2 proved that at − 180° C. an ...

IN a previous communication1, it was recorded that precision X-ray powder methods with a large-diameter camera show that the structure of nickel oxide is not strictly cubic, but only pseudo-cubic.

Nickel oxide is interesting because when you expose it to hydrogen gas, its crystalline structure subtly changes and more electrons become available to generate an electrical current.
