  1. The resurgence of interest in Kondo insulators has been driven by two major mysteries: the presence of metallic surface states and the observation of quantum oscillations. To further explore these mysteries, it is crucial to investigate another similar system beyond the two existing ones, SmB6and YbB12. Here, we address this by reporting on a Kondo insulator, U3Bi4Ni3. Our transport measurements reveal that a surface state emerges below 250 kelvin and dominates transport properties below 150 kelvin, which is well above the temperature scale of SmB6and YbB12. At low temperatures, the surface conductivity is about one order of magnitude higher than the bulk. The robustness of the surface state indicates that it is inherently protected. The similarities and differences between U3Bi4Ni3and the other two Kondo insulators will provide valuable insights into the nature of metallic surface states in Kondo insulators and their interplay with strong electron correlations.

  3. Abstract High‐temperature, high‐velocity water vapor (steam‐jet) exposures were conducted on Y2O3, Y2SiO5, Y2Si2O7, and SiO2for 60 hours at 1400°C. Volatility of Y2O3was not observed. Phase‐pure Y2SiO5exhibited SiO2loss forming Y2O3and porosity. A mixed porous and dense Y2SiO5layer formed on the surface of Y2Si2O7due to SiO2depletion. The mechanisms and kinetics of the reaction between SiO2and H2O(g) to form Si(OH)4(g) from Y2SiO5, Y2Si2O7, and SiO2are discussed.
