Shape Stability of Truncated Octahedral fcc Metal Nanocrystals

Metallic nanocrystals (NCs) can be synthesized with tailored nonequilibrium shapes to enhance desired properties, e.g., octahedral fcc metal NCs optimize catalytic activity associated with {111} facets. However, maintenance of optimized properties requires stability against thermal reshaping. Thus, we analyze the reshaping of truncated fcc metal octahedra mediated by surface diffusion using a stochastic atomistic-level model with energetic input parameters for Pd. Furthermore, the model describes NC thermodynamics by an effective nearest-neighbor interaction and includes a realistic treatment of diffusive hopping for undercoordinated surface atoms. Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation reveals that the effective barrier, E eff , for the initial stage of reshaping is strongly tied to the degree of truncation of the vertices in the synthesized initial octahedral shapes. This feature is elucidated via exact analytic determination of the energy variation along the optimal reshaping pathway at low-temperature (T), which involves transfer of atoms from truncated {100} vertex facets to form new layers on {111} side facets. Deviations from predictions of the low-T analysis due to entropic effects are more prominent for higher T and larger NC sizes.

A Decadal Hybrid GCM Simulation Using Deep‐Learning‐Based Cloud and Convection Parameterization Generalized to a Warm Climate

A critical challenge for machine‐learning (ML) parameterization in global climate models (GCMs) is to achieve stable, accurate simulations under climates not seen during training. Previous studies have demonstrated promising offline performance and year‐long online stability in aquaplanet simulations but have encountered difficulties in real geography and under climate warming. Here we report that a GCM with real geography configuration using neural‐network‐based cloud and convection parameterization, trained exclusively with present‐day climate data, successfully performs a stable, decade‐long simulation of a warm climate with +4 K sea surface temperature (SST). The neural network (NN) is based on Han et al. (2023, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022ms003508 ) with additional inputs. The simulation captures the global precipitation distribution, surface temperatures, vertical atmospheric structures, and extreme precipitation very well, closely matching simulations from both the superparameterized CAM (SPCAM) and the conventional CAM5 in the warm climate without accuracy degradation compared to those in the baseline climate. Moreover, it produces a climate response to +4 K SST in atmospheric thermodynamic states and circulations similar to those from SPCAM and CAM5. Prognostic ablation tests on NN input variables show that the NN without convective memory as input suffers from numerical instability, and the NN without considering radiative variables and land fraction as input, or with reduced training samples produce less accurate results. To our knowledge, this is the first time an ML parameterization successfully achieves online extrapolation to a warm climate without using additional warm‐climate data for training. It demonstrates the potential of ML‐driven parameterizations for credible long‐term climate projections.

Long-range Doppler lidar measurements of wind turbine wakes and their interaction with turbulent atmospheric boundary-layer flow at Perdigao 2017

As part of the Perdigão 2017 campaign, vertical RHI (range-height indicator) scans with long-range pulsed Doppler wind lidars were performed aligned with the main wind direction and a wind turbine (WT) located on a mountain ridge. The measurements are used to not only retrieve flow velocities, but also their variance and - by using the turbulent broadening of the Doppler spectrum - also turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation rate. The study shows that turbulence in the WT wake is dependent on the turbulence of the inflow, but also on atmospheric stability. In stable atmospheric conditions, wakes could be analyzed up to five rotor diameters downstream (D) and showed the maximum turbulence in the wake at 2-3 D, whereas in unstable conditions, the maximum was found at 2 D and the wake could not be detected further than 3 D. A clear dependency of wake turbulence enhancement on inflow turbulence intensity is found, which levels out to no further enhancement at turbulence intensities of 30%.

On-demand formation of Lewis bases for efficient and stable perovskite solar cells

In the fabrication of FAPbI 3 -based perovskite solar cells, Lewis bases play a crucial role in facilitating the formation of the desired photovoltaic α-phase. However, an inherent contradiction exists in their role: they must strongly bind to stabilize the intermediate δ-phase, yet weakly bind for rapid removal to enable phase transition and grain growth. To resolve this conflict, we introduced an on-demand Lewis base molecule formation strategy. This approach utilized Lewis-acid-containing organic salts as synthesis additives, which deprotonated to generate Lewis bases precisely when needed and could be reprotonated back to salts for rapid removal once their role is fulfilled. This method promoted the optimal crystallization of α-phase FAPbI 3 perovskite films, ensuring the uniform vertical distribution of A-site cations, larger grain sizes and fewer voids at buried interfaces. Perovskite solar cells incorporating semicarbazide hydrochloride achieved an efficiency of 26.1%, with a National Renewable Energy Laboratory-certified quasi-steady-state efficiency of 25.33%. These cells retained 96% of their initial efficiency after 1,000 h of operation at 85 °C under maximum power point tracking. Additionally, mini-modules with an aperture area of 11.52 cm 2 reached an efficiency of 21.47%. This strategy is broadly applicable to all Lewis-acid-containing organic salts with low acid dissociation constants and offers a universal approach to enhance the performance of perovskite solar cells and modules.

Influences of lidar scanning parameters on wind turbine wake retrievals in complex terrain

Abstract. Scanning lidars enable the collection of spatially distributed measurements of turbine wakes and the estimation of wake properties such as magnitude, extent, and trajectory. Lidar-based characterizations, however, may be subject to distortions due to the observational system. Distortions can arise from the resolution of the measurement points across the wake, the projection of the winds onto the beam, averaging along the beam probe volume, and intervening evolution of the flow over the scan duration. Using a large-eddy simulation and simulated measurements with a virtual lidar model, we assess how scanning lidar systems may influence the properties of the retrieved wake using a case study from the Perdigão campaign. We consider three lidars performing range-height indicator sweeps in complex terrain, based on the deployments of lidars from the Danish Technical University (DTU) and German Aerospace Center (DLR) at the Perdigão site. The unwaked flow, measured by the DTU lidar, is well-captured by the lidar, even without combining data into a multi-lidar retrieval. The two DLR lidars measure a waked transect from different downwind vantage points. In the region of the wake, the observation system reacts to the smaller spatial and temporal variations of the winds, allowing more significant observation distortions to arise. While the measurements largely capture the wake structure and trajectory over its 4–5 D extent, limited spatial resolution of measurement points and volume averaging lead to a quicker loss of the two lobes in the near wake, smearing of the vertical bounds of the wake (< 30 m), wake center displacements up to 10 m, and dampening of the maximum velocity deficit by up to a third. The virtual lidar tool, coupled with simulations, provides a means for assessing measurement capabilities in advance of measurement campaigns.

Similarity of the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate distribution in the upper mixed layer of the tropical Indian Ocean

Turbulence within the upper ocean mixed layer plays a key role in various physical, biological, and chemical processes. Between September and November 2011, a dataset of 570 vertical profiles of the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation rate, as well as conventional hydrological and meteorological data, were collected in the upper layer of the tropical Indian Ocean. These data were used to statistically analyze the vertical distribution of the TKE dissipation rate in the mixed layer. The arithmetic-mean method made the statistical TKE dissipation rate profile more scattered than the median and geometric-mean methods. The statistical TKE dissipation rate were respectively scaled by the surface buoyancy flux and the TKE dissipation rate at the mixed-layer base. It was found that the TKE dissipation rate scaled by that at the mixed-layer base exhibited better similarity characteristics than that scaled by the surface buoyancy flux, whether the stability parameter D/|L MO | was greater or less than 10, indicating that the TKE dissipation rate at the mixed-layer base is a better characteristic scaling parameter for reflecting the intrinsic structure of the TKE dissipation rate in the mixed layer, where D and L MO are respectively the mixed-layer thickness and the Monin-Obukhov length scale. The parameterization of the TKE dissipation rate at the mixed-layer base on the shear-driven dissipation rate and the surface buoyancy flux was further explored. It was found that the TKE dissipation rate at the mixed-layer base could be well fitted by a linear combination of three terms: the wind-shear-driven dissipation rate, the surface buoyancy flux, and a simple nonlinear coupling term of these two.

PI Loop Resonance Control for Dark Photon Experiment at 2 K Using a 2.6 GHz SRF Cavity

Two 2.6 GHz SRF cavities are being used for a dark photon search at the vertical test stand (VTS) in FNAL, for the second phase of the Dark SRF experiment. During testing at 2 K the cavities experience frequency detuning caused by microphonics and slow frequency drifts. The experiment requires that the two cavities have the same frequency within the cavity's bandwidth. These two cavities are equipped with frequency tuners consisting of three piezo actuators. The piezo actuators are used for fine-fast frequency tuning. A proportional-integral (PI) loop utilizing the three piezos on the emitter was used to stabilize the cavity frequency and match the receiver cavity frequency. The results from this implementation will be discussed. The integration time was also calculated via simulation.

Effect of Molecular Conformation on Intermolecular Interactions and Photovoltaic Performances of Giant Molecule Acceptors

The molecular conformation of giant molecule acceptors (GMAs) plays a significant role in regulating the intermolecular interactions and their photovoltaic performances in organic solar cells (OSCs). For the linear GMA GT‐l, the stronger homo‐molecular interaction causes its aggregation being weakly affected by the donor, thus forming an ordered molecular stacking and proper phase separation in its blend film. The star‐shaped GMA GT‐s‐based blend film shows a dominant hetero‐molecular interaction that suppresses the aggregation of the donor and acceptor, resulting in smaller phase separation and more uniform vertical phase distribution. While for another star‐shaped GMA GTs, the weakest hetero‐molecular interaction causes its blend film to form larger phase separation. Therefore, the GT‐l based OSC with PM6 as donor shows the highest charge mobilities, the fastest charge transfer (CT) process, reduced energy loss and less charge recombination, contributing to a higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 19.03%. Comparatively, the PCEs of the OSCs based on GTs and GT‐s are 18.05% and 17.58% respectively. Notably, all the three GMAs based OSCs show excellent thermal stability and long‐term storage stability. This study provides a facile strategy by tuning the linking unit and its connecting mode for designing highly efficient and stable organic photovoltaic materials.

Dust and Ions: Self Organization and Stability (Final Report)

This project explores the stability and structure of systems with non-reciprocal interactions, challenging the traditional understanding based on Newton's third law, which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Reciprocal forces are fundamental to the stability of systems ranging in size from atomic nuclei to galactic clusters. Our research investigates what happens when the forces between two objects are not equal and opposite. We used dusty plasmas as a model system to study non-reciprocal interactions. In a plasma chamber, micron-sized dust particles acquire a negative charge and form 2D planar "dust crystals" when levitated by the electric field present in the plasma sheath at the interface between the plasma and the lower surface of the chamber. This electric field also drives a vertical ion flow, creating a positively charged "plasma wake" downstream of the dust grains. While horizontally aligned dust grains interact reciprocally, a slight vertical displacement causes non-reciprocal interactions due to the attraction of the lower dust grain to the upper dust grain’s ion wake. Our experiments investigated the range of plasma conditions (gas pressure and system power) where stable dusty plasma structures are able to self-organize, aided by the ion wake. We studied systems ranging from pairs of dust particles to large 2D crystals, providing insights into the conditions that lead to stable or unstable structures. We used numerical simulations to investigate how ion wakes changed in response to changes in the operating conditions as well as how the wakes of separate grains interact when dust grains are in close proximity.

Hole doping in compositionally complex correlated oxide enables tunable exchange biasing

Magnetic interfaces and the phenomena arising from them drive both the design of modern spintronics and fundamental research. Recently, it was revealed that through designing magnetic frustration in configurationally complex entropy stabilized oxides, exchange bias can occur in structurally single crystal films. This eliminates the need for complex heterostructures and nanocomposites in the design and control of magnetic response phenomena. In this work, we demonstrate through hole doping of a high entropy perovskite oxide that tuning of magnetic responses can be achieved. With detailed magnetometry, we show magnetic coupling exhibiting a variety of magnetic responses including exchange bias and antiferromagnetic spin reversal in the entropy stabilized ABO 3 perovskite oxide La 1-x Sr x (Cr 0.2 Mn 0.2 Fe 0.2 Co 0.2 Ni 0.2 )O 3 family. We find that manipulation of the A-site charge state can be used to balance magnetic phase compositions and coupling responses. This allows for the creation of highly tunable exchange bias responses. In the low Sr doping regime, a spin frustrated region arising at the antiferromagnetic phase boundary is shown to directly couple to the antiferromagnetic moments of the film and emerges as the dominant mechanism, leading to a vertical shift of magnetization loops in response to field biasing. At higher concentrations, direct coupling of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic regions is observed. This tunability of magnetic coupling is discussed within the context of these three competing magnetic phases, revealing critical features in designing exchange bias through exploiting spin frustration and disorder in high entropy oxides.

NiGa 2 O 4 interfacial layers in NiO/Ga 2 O 3 heterojunction diodes at high temperature

NiO/Ga 2 O 3 heterojunction diodes have attracted attention for high-power applications, but their high temperature performance and reliability remain underexplored. Here, we report the time evolution of the electrical properties in the widely studied p-NiO/n-Ga 2 O 3 heterojunction diodes and formation of NiGa 2 O 4 interfacial layers at high temperatures. Results of our thermal cycling experiment show an initial leakage current increase which stabilizes after sustained thermal load, due to reactions at the NiO–Ga 2 O 3 interface. High-resolution TEM microstructure analysis of the devices after thermal cycling indicates that the NiO–Ga 2 O 3 interface forms a ternary compound at high temperatures, and thermodynamic calculations suggest the formation of the spinel NiGa 2 O 4 layer between NiO and Ga 2 O 3 . First-principles defect calculations find that NiGa 2 O 4 shows low p-type intrinsic doping and hence can serve to limit electric field crowding at the interface. Vertical NiO/ Ga 2 O 3 diodes with intentionally grown 5 nm thin spinel-type NiGa 2 O 4 interfacial layers show an excellent device ON/OFF ratio of >10 10 (± 3 V), V ON of ~1.9 V, and increased breakdown voltage of ~1.2 kV for an initial unoptimized 300 lm diameter device. These p–n heterojunction diodes are promising for high-voltage, high temperature applications.

Probing eddy size and its effective mixing length in stably stratified roughness sublayer flows

Stably stratified roughness sublayer flows are ubiquitous yet remain difficult to represent in models and to interpret using field experiments. Here, continuous high-frequency potential temperature profiles from the forest floor up to 6.5 times the canopy height observed with distributed temperature sensing (DTS) are used to link eddy topology to roughness sublayer stability correction functions and coupling between air layers within and above the canopy. The experiments are conducted at two forest stands classified as hydrodynamically sparse and dense. Near-continuous profiles of eddy sizes (length scales) and effective mixing lengths for heat are derived from the observed profiles using a novel conditional sampling approach. The approach utilizes potential temperature isoline fluctuations from a statically stable background state. The transport of potential temperature by an observed eddy is assumed to be conserved (adiabatic movement) and we assume that irreversible heat exchange between the eddy and the surrounding background occurs along the (vertical) periphery of the eddy. This assumption is analogous to Prandtl's mixing-length concept, where momentum is transported rapidly vertically and then equilibrated with the local mean velocity gradient. A distinct dependence of the derived length scales on background stratification, height above ground, and canopy characteristics emerges from the observed profiles. Implications of these findings for (1) the failure of Monin–Obukhov similarity in the roughness sublayer and (2) above-canopy flow coupling to the forest floor are examined. The findings have practical applications in terms of analysing similar DTS data sets with the proposed approach, modelling roughness sublayer flows, and interpreting nocturnal eddy covariance measurements above tall forested canopies.

A coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical model for simulating leakoff-dominated hydraulic fracturing with application to geologic carbon storage

A potential risk of injecting CO2 into storage reservoirs with marginal permeability (≲ 10 mD (1 mD = 10 –15 m 2 )) is that commercial injection rates could induce fracturing of the reservoir and/or the caprock. Such fracturing is essentially fluid-driven fracturing in the leakoff-dominated regime. Recent studies suggested that fracturing, if contained within the lower portion of the caprock complex, could substantially improve the injectivity without compromising the overall seal integrity. Modeling this phenomenon entails complex coupled interactions among the fluids, the fracture, the reservoir, and the caprock. Here, we develop a simple method to capture all these interplays in high fidelity by sequentially coupling a hydraulic fracturing module with a coupled thermal-hydrological-mechanical (THM) model for nonisothermal multiphase flow. The model was made numerically tractable by taking advantage of self-stabilizing features of leakoff-dominated fracturing. The model is validated against the PKN solution in the leakoff-dominated regime. Moreover, we employ the model to study thermo-poromechanical responses of a fluid-driven fracture in a field-scale carbon storage reservoir that is loosely based on the In Salah project's Krechba reservoir. The model reveals complex yet intriguing behaviors of the reservoir-caprock-fluid system with fracturing induced by cold CO 2 injection. We also study the effects of the in situ stress contrast between the reservoir and caprock and thermal contraction on the vertical containment of the fracture. The proposed model proves effective in simulating practical problems on length and time scales relevant to geological carbon storage.

Wind Shear and Wind Veer Effects on Wind Turbines

This chapter highlights key contributions to the scientific literature on the sources of wind shear and wind veer in the atmospheric boundary layer, observations of shear and veer, and the effects of shear and veer on wind turbine power production, wind turbine wake evolution, and wind turbine loads. As wind turbines have grown larger, they encounter deeper and more complicated regions of the atmosphere. Over this height, profiles of wind speed shear and wind direction veer play a quantifiable role. Changes in the wind speed and wind direction across the vertical extent of a wind turbine rotor disk modify the inflow vector on the blades of the turbine, thereby affecting the magnitude and orientation of the lift and drag forces of the blade's airfoil. These changes can affect the power production and loads on large modern turbines, as well as the evolution of the wake that could affect a downwind turbine.

Observations of airflow around a supertall curved building and its impact on temperature and humidity in Houston's urban center

Characterization of realistically shaped skyscrapers embedded in non-uniform neighbourhoods experiencing intricate weather patterns remains inadequately investigated. Aiming to close this gap, the Center for Multiscale Applied Sensing team deployed its mobile observatory in the street canyons around the curved Wells Fargo Plaza skyscraper in downtown Houston, TX. Three deployments allowed airflow observations under different inflow wind and thermodynamic stability conditions. Doppler lidar measurements reveal that when inflow hits the curved wall of the skyscraper, perpendicular canyons experience similar vortex configurations creating two windward and two leeward circulations. Windsond measurements support that buoyancy within the deep street canyons can generate thermal updrafts as strong as 2 m s -1 which is sufficient to overturn the mechanical downwash under gentle wind conditions. Canyons experiencing venting during the daytime were observed to be more thermodynamically stable at night while thermodynamically stable canyons during the day were observed to be more thermodynamically unstable at night owing to the accumulation of heat near street-level. Fourier decomposition of the vertical velocity measurements shows that in all cases flow exhibited high Reynolds numbers and was composed of turbulent eddies of predominantly 6 and 15 min periods. Here, this observational dataset provides insights to assess wind load, pedestrian comfort, urban air mobility, and natural ventilation and may be used as a benchmark for numerical model and wind tunnel studies attempting to represent realistically complex urban conditions.

Investigation of onshore wind farm wake recovery with in situ aircraft measurements during AWAKEN

The share of wind power for electricity supply is increasing worldwide. This highly variable resource requires the improved prediction of power output for network stability. The interaction between wind farm wakes and the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) introduces uncertainties in power production that warrant detailed investigation. The flow downwind of wind farms is characterized by a reduction in wind speed and an increase in turbulence, which both vary with atmospheric conditions. During the American WAKE experimeNt (AWAKEN), the Technische Universität Braunschweig conducted measurement flights with a research aircraft upwind and downwind of onshore wind farms in the southern Great Plains in Oklahoma in the USA. This study utilizes data from 20 flights conducted at approximately hub height in September 2023 to investigate the wind field variability downwind of the wind farms and vertical profiles to observe atmospheric stratification. The flights were aligned perpendicular to the main wind direction downwind of the King Plains and Armadillo Flats wind farms. Additionally, lidar data from both upwind and downwind ground-based measurement sites and sonic anemometer data were used for comprehensive analysis. Results indicate that under stable ABL conditions, the wake persists at greater downwind distances with a higher velocity deficit in the wake relative to the undisturbed flow compared to unstable stratification. In homogeneous terrain under stable conditions, wake recovery to 95 % occurs between a distance of 4.5 and 9 km downwind of the wind farm. In the semi-complex terrain characterized by shallow hills, slopes, and valleys, the wake exhibits a higher velocity deficit compared to homogeneous terrain, while in some cases the wake was amplified by the terrain resulting in higher velocity deficit 10 km downwind of the wind farm compared to the measurements closer to the wind farm. The turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and “TKE difference” was found to be a valuable measure in understanding wakes in a semi-complex terrain, showing a clear wake recovery and formation depending on the stratification of the ABL.

Integration of layered group IV selenides: From SnSe–SnSe 2-x S x core-shell crystals to complex (SnSe–SnSe 2-x S x )-GeSe van der waals heterostructures

The layered semiconductor tin selenide (SnSe) has received extensive interest due to its promising thermoelectric and ferroelectric properties. Integrating SnSe with other layered crystals in heterostructures can enable the modification of charge- and thermal transport, electrical polarization, and other properties such as chemical stability, optoelectronics, and photonics. Here, we demonstrate the vapor transport synthesis of single-crystalline SnSe monochalcogenide flakes that are spontaneously encapsulated in a thin layered SnSe 2-x S x dichalcogenide shell. In a second growth step, such SnSe-SnSe 2-x S x heterostructures are integrated with the monochalcogenide GeSe, which is laterally stitched to the SnSe side facets while preserving the dichalcogenide shell across the basal facets. This architecture is confirmed by optical microscopy, electron microscopy and diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray and Raman spectroscopies, as well as cathodoluminescence spectroscopy. Furthermore, the results extend our capabilities for materials integration by forming complex heterostructures with both vertical van der Waals interfaces and covalent lateral interfaces between layered semiconductors.

Photodetachment Dynamics and Structural Flexibility of Undercoordinated Iridium Halides IrCl n − (n = 3−5): An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation

Three undercoordinated iridium chloride anions, IrCl n − (n = 3–5), and their neutral counterparts were investigated by cryogenic anion photoelectron spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. Photodetachment of IrCl n − leads to the formation of the corresponding neutral complex, i.e., a triplet ground state for n = 3, a quartet for n = 4, and close-lying singlet and triplet for n = 5. The vertical detachment energies are determined to be 3.89, 4.98, and 5.14 eV for n = 3, 4, and 5, respectively, revealing superhalogen anion properties with increasing electron detachment energies as chloride ligands added. The IrCl 3 − spectrum features an extremely broad, lowest electron binding energy band, attributed to resonant autodetachment with prominent non-Franck–Condon profiles. In IrCl 5 − , detachment prompts a d-orbital rearrangement that drives a structural transformation from a twisted square-based pyramidal to a trigonal–bipyramidal geometry in the singlet state. In conclusion, these findings provide insights into the electronic and structural adaptability of iridium halides, advancing our understanding of ligand exchange reactions and dissociative stability in transition metal complexes.
