  text: The coupling between magnetic and electric subsystems in composites of ferromagnetic
    and ferroelectric phases is a product property that is facilitated by mechanical
    strain that arises due to magnetostriction and the piezoelectric effect in the
    constituent phases. Such multiferroic composites are of immense interests for
    studies on the physics of electromagnetic coupling and for use in a variety of
    applications. Here, we focus on magneto-electric (ME) coupling in nanocomposites.
    Particular emphasis is on core-shell particles and coaxial fibers, thin film heterostructures,
    and planar structures with a variety of mechanical connectivity. A brief review
    of models that predict strong ME effects in nanostructures is followed by synthesis
    and characterization. Core-shell particulate composites can be prepared by hydrothermal
    processes and chemical or deoxyribonucleic acid-assisted assembly. Electrospinning
    techniques have been utilized to prepare defect free core-shell nanofibers. Core-shell
    particles and fibers can be assembled into superstructures with the aid of magnetic
    and electric fields and characterized for possible use in advanced technologies.
    Chemical-vapor deposition techniques have been shown to be effective for the preparation
    of heterostructures of ferrites and ferroelectrics. Exotic planar multiferroic
    structures with potential for enhancing ME coupling strengths are also considered.
    Scanning probe microscopy techniques are ideal for probing the nature of direct-
    and converse-ME coupling in individual nanostructures. Magnetoelectric characterization
    of assemblies of nanocomposites can be done by ME voltage coefficient, magnetic
    field induced polarization, and magneto-dielectric effects. We conclude with a
    brief discussion on possible avenues for strengthening the product properties
    in the nanocomposites.

  text: We have observed that reacting Pb:Te:Ag:Se in a 1:1:1.9:1 molar ratio gives
    rise to what appears to be a predominantly single-phase alloy, which crystallizes
    in the PbSe cF8 fcc structure. However, further investigation of the structure
    using energy dispersive x-ray analysis reveals the presence of two phases, PbSe
    and β-Ag2Te, with identical lattice parameters. The total thermal conductivity
    of the formed alloy is remarkably low for a crystalline material, κT<0.6W∕mK at
    675K, it is reproducible, and in addition, the compound has good mechanical properties.
