VISIONS: Remote Observations of a Spatially-Structured Filamentary Source of Energetic Neutral Atoms near the Polar Cap Boundary During an Auroral Substorm

We report initial results from the VISualizing Ion Outflow via Neutral atom imaging during a Substorm (VISIONS) rocket that flew through and near several regions of enhanced auroral activity and also sensed regions of ion outflow both remotely and directly. The observed neutral atom fluxes were largest at the lower energies and generally higher in the auroral zone than in the polar cap. In this paper, we focus on data from the latter half of the VISIONS trajectory when the rocket traversed the polar cap region. During this period, many of the energetic neutral atom spectra show a peak at 100 electronvolts. Spectra with peaks around 100 electronvolts are also observed in the Electrostatic Ion Analyzer (EIA) data consistent with these ions comprising the source population for the energetic neutral atoms. The EIA observations of this low energy population extend only over a few tens of kilometers. Furthermore, the directionality of the arriving energetic neutral atoms is consistent with either this spatially localized source of energetic ions extending from as low as about 300 kilometers up to above 600 kilometers or a larger source of energetic ions to the southwest.

The Star Formation Rate Efficiency of Neutral Atomic-Dominated Hydrogen Gas in the Ooutskirts of Star-Forming Galaxies From z approx. 1 to z approx. 3

Current observational evidence suggests that the star formation rate (SFR)efficiency of neutral atomic hydrogen gas measured in damped Ly(alpha) systems (DLAs) at z approx. 3 is more than 10 times lower than predicted by the Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS)relation. To understand the origin of this deficit, and to investigate possible evolution with redshift and galaxy properties, we measure the SFR efficiency of atomic gas at z approx. 1, z approx. 2, and z approx. 3 around star-forming galaxies. We use new robust photometric redshifts in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field to create galaxy stacks in these three redshift bins, and measure the SFR efficiency by combining DLA absorber statistics with the observed rest-frame UV emission in the galaxies' outskirts. We find that the SFR efficiency of H I gas at z > 1 is approx. 1%-3% of that predicted by the KS relation. Contrary to simulations and models that predict a reduced SFR efficiency with decreasing metallicity and thus with increasing redshift, we find no significant evolution in the SFR efficiency with redshift. Our analysis instead suggests that the reduced SFR efficiency is driven by the low molecular content of this atomic-dominated phase, with metallicity playing a secondary effect in regulating the conversion between atomic and molecular gas. This interpretation is supported by the similarity between the observed SFR efficiency and that observed in local atomic-dominated gas, such as in the outskirts of local spiral galaxies and local dwarf galaxies.

Design of Experiment for the Measurement of Aerosol Droplet Size Distribution of Temperature-Controlled Thermally Atomized Printed Electronic Inks

In-Space Manufacturing (ISM) centers around NASA’s growing need and ability to produce space technologies on demand in space. As the future of long term presence in space and deep space exploration approach, fundamental questions of our dependence on earth resupply to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) remain unanswered. ISM is leading various effort to evaluate the feasibility of producing essential spares and redundant parts on demand to enable a sustainable space-based supply chain model for part resupply. Among the parts and systems being considered, Avionics form the neural network of modern day aircraft and space vehicles providing a wealth of information ranging from Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GN&C) systems to on board Environmental Control and Life Support (ECLS) systems. Recent advances in the use of Aerosol Jet Technology to print Avionics components ranging from electrical traces on a circuit board to complex transistors and sensors raise the possibility of using such technology to reproduce or recreate electronic parts on demand with the help of custom electronics 3D printers. The challenge herein lies within the ability of such printers to generate and deposit an aerosol of electronic material utilizing processes independent of or enhanced by gravity to ensure controllably identical or improved behavior of the aerosol in an International Space Station (ISS) laboratory and on the ground. The behavior as well as the hazards and properties associated with such aerosols in a microgravity environment must be understood well in order to merit a feasible approach to utilizing them for manufacturing in space. In this report, we outline the experimental setup of a modified conventional vaping device to be used as the ideal gravity independent thermal atomization mechanism to generate aerosol. Our objective is to identify the ideal mass, density, and volume of our aerosolized droplets of ink to conclude that there exist a threshold of aerosolized ink droplet sizes that are indeed independent of the effects of gravity and remain stable after atomization. We use a Malvern Spraytec® Spray Particle Size Analyzer to perform real-time laser diffraction measurement of our ink droplets during atomization. The droplet size between conductive ink, dielectric ink and vegetable glycerin have been measured and contrasted. Furthermore, the mechanism of thermal atomization versus traditional pneumatic and ultrasonic atomization for operation in microgravity have been explored.

Application and Development of Atomic Layer Deposition Techniques to Improve Thermo-Optical Coatings for Spacecraft Thermal Control and Advanced Optical Instruments

A key technology development driver in environmental control systems and next generation optics are discussed utilizing thin film development borrowed from the semiconductor industry. The optical and physical properties of spacecraft radiator coatings are dictated by orbital environmental conditions. For example, coatings must adequately dissipate charge buildup when orbital conditions, such as polar, geostationary or gravity neutral, result in surface charging. Current dissipation techniques include depositing a layer of ITO (indium tin oxide) on the radiator surface in a high temperature process. The application of these enhanced coatings must be such that the properties in question are tailored to mission-specific requirements. The multi-billion-dollar semiconductor industry has adopted Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) for self-assembly and atomic-scale placement. ALD is a cost-effective nanoadditive-manufacturing technique that allows for the conformal coating of substrates with atomic control in a benign temperature and pressure environment. By using ALD, modification of these coatings can be accomplished during coating application preprocessing. The preprocessing is rendered directly on the coating dry pigment before binding. Through the introduction of paired precursor gases, thin films can be deposited on a myriad of substrates ranging from glass, polymers, aerogels, metals, powders, and other high aspect-ratio micro- and nano- structures. By providing atomic-level control, where single layers of atoms can be deposited, the fabrication of metal transparent films, precise nano-laminates, and coatings of nano-channels and pores is achievable. A method has been demonstrated for the ALD of In2O3 and films on a variety of substrates from Si(100) wafers, glass slides, and on Z93P pigments resulting in a direct spaceflight application. Results will be presented that verify the chemical composition of ALD pigments and charge dissipation properties when the pigment goes through its binding and coating process and we present early results of ALD for carbon nanotube formation and encapsulation.

Applications of Atomic Layer Deposition in the Modification of Carbon Nanotubes

Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a cost-effective nanoadditive-manufacturing technique that allows for conformal coating of substrates with atomic control in a benign temperature and pressure environment. Using paired precursor gases, thin films can be deposited on flat or textured surfaces ranging from glass, polymers, aerogels, and metals. Through atomic layer control, where single layers of atoms are deposited, fabrication of metal transparent films, nano-laminates, and coatings of nano-channels and pores is achievable. Reaction mechanisms in ALD are normally self-limiting, allowing for atomically accurate control of nanometer (nm) thicknesses. Therefore, high uniformity and precise thickness control make ALD an attractive process for the creation of novel nano-scale devices. Decreases in resistivity and density of electrical wire are needed to improve the function of electronics, electric motors and cables. Such improvements may be accomplished by adding ballistically conducting, metallic carbon nanotubes (CNT) to Cu. ALD was used to coat multiple substrates including CNT with Cu in an effort to make CNT-Cu composites which is more conductive and less dense than Cu. In addition, ALD can be used to as a method to deposit the catalyst layer seed layer for CNT growth using Ni. The ALD of copper metallic films can follow multiple reaction pathways depending on the ALD precursors used. For this work the reaction pathway was deposition of copper oxide and then post process annealing in a hydrogen environment. Copper(II) diacetylacetonate (Cu(acac)2) and ozone are used as precursors for copper oxide. As-deposited copper oxide films prepared at 180°C resulted in a growth per cycle of 1.0 A/cycle with low film resistivity.

Impact of in situ nuclear networks and atomic opacities on neutron star merger ejecta dynamics, nucleosynthesis, and kilonovae

Context. Binary neutron star merger (BNSM) ejecta are key sites of rapid neutron capture (r-process) nucleosynthesis and they produce kilonovae powered by the radioactive decay of freshly synthesized nuclei. Modeling their evolution requires multi-physics simulations involving hydrodynamics, nuclear reactions, and radiative processes. The impact of nuclear burning and atomic opacity is poorly understood and often treated with simplified prescriptions. Aims. We systematically investigate different treatments of nuclear heating, particle thermalization, and atomic opacities in radiation-hydrodynamics simulations of BNSM ejecta and kilonova light curves. Methods. Ejecta profiles from long-term numerical-relativity simulations of asymmetric neutron star binaries with a massive neutron star remnant were evolved to ∼30 days using a 2D ray-by-ray approach. We compared simplified heating-rate and thermalization prescriptions with in situ Nuclear reaction Network (NN) calculations that track nuclear energy deposition and include a composition-dependent thermalization scheme. We also contrasted various gray opacity models with a frequency-dependent treatment based on atomic calculations. Results. Coupling NN and hydrodynamics significantly affects nucleosynthesis and kilonova emission. Assuming homologous expansion alters abundance evolution and produces a narrower, less populated second r-process peak and a third peak shifted to higher mass numbers. The back-reaction of nuclear heating affects the temperature evolution enough to delay and redden the early (t∼ hours) kilonova peaks. A constant thermalization efficiency underestimates and reddens the early emission while overestimating the late-time luminosity compared to the composition-dependent treatment. Analytical opacity prescriptions yield a more extended, colder photosphere, resulting in dimmer, redder kilonovae at early times (t≲ hour), while the delayed recession of the photosphere prolongs the red emission at t ≳ 5 days. Conclusions. Coupling hydrodynamics to an in situ NN is crucial for reliable nucleosynthesis and kilonova predictions. Resolving the first several hundred milliseconds of the hydrodynamics is essential for robust nucleosynthesis calculations. Composition-dependent thermalization and frequency-dependent, atomic-physics-based opacities are needed to accurately capture the temperature evolution of the ejecta and the brightness and color evolution of the kilonova. Calibrated analytic nuclear-power fits with simplified thermalization and opacity prescriptions can still reproduce the density and temperature evolution of the ejecta.

Probing Dipolar Interactions between Rydberg Atoms and Ultracold Polar Molecules

Here, we probe resonant dipolar interactions between ultracold 40 K ⁢ 87 Rb molecules and Rydberg 87 Rb atoms in an optically trapped ensemble. Through state-selective ionization detection of the KRb molecules, we observe resonant energy transfer at 2.227 GHz from Rydberg atoms to molecules under a tunable external electric field. We measure a broadening up to 3.5 MHz, for the Rb Rydberg excitation spectrum, which matches a Monte Carlo simulation that describes a Rydberg atom and neighboring molecules evolving under a dipole-dipole interacting Hamiltonian. The demonstrated interspecies dipolar interaction is a key ingredient for hybrid Rydberg-polar molecule systems, where the advantages of each system can be leveraged and combined.

Hyperfine-to-rotational energy transfer in ultracold atom–molecule collisions of Rb and KRb

Energy transfer between different mechanical degrees of freedom in atom–molecule collisions has been studied and largely understood. However, systems involving spins remain less explored. Here, in this study, we directly observed energy transfer from atomic hyperfine to molecular rotation in the 87 Rb ($| {F}_{a},{M}_{{F}_{a}}\rangle =| 2,2\rangle$) + 40 K 87 Rb (X 1 Σ + , rotational state N = 0) ⟶ Rb ($| 1,1\rangle$) + KRb ( N = 0, 1, 2) collision with state-to-state precision. We also performed quantum scattering calculations that rigorously included the coupling between spin and rotational degrees of freedom at short range under the assumption of rigid-rotor KRb monomers moving along a single potential energy surface. The calculated product rotational state distribution deviates from the observations even after extensive tuning of the atom–molecule potential energy surface. In addition, our ab initio calculations indicate that spin–rotation coupling is enhanced close to a conical intersection that is energetically accessible at short range. This, together with the deviation, suggests that vibrational degrees of freedom and conical intersections play an important part in the coupling. Our observations confirm that spin is coupled to mechanical rotation at short range and establish a benchmark for future theoretical studies.

Review of Carbon Support Coordination Environments for Single Metal Atom Electrocatalysts (SACS)

This topical review focuses on the distinct role of carbon support coordination environment of single-atom catalysts (SACs) for electrocatalysis. The article begins with an overview of atomic coordination configurations in SACs, including a discussion of the advanced characterization techniques and simulation used for understanding the active sites. A summary of key electrocatalysis applications is then provided. These processes are oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR), and carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO 2 RR). The review then shifts to modulation of the metal atom-carbon coordination environments, focusing on nitrogen and other non-metal coordination through modulation at the first coordination shell and modulation in the second and higher coordination shells. Representative case studies are provided, starting with the classic four-nitrogen-coordinated single metal atom (M$-$N 4 ) based SACs. Bimetallic coordination models including homo-paired and hetero-paired active sites are also discussed, being categorized as emerging approaches. The theme of the discussions is the correlation between synthesis methods for selective doping, the carbon structure–electron configuration changes associated with the doping, the analytical techniques used to ascertain these changes, and the resultant electrocatalysis performance. In conclusion, critical unanswered questions as well as promising underexplored research directions are identified.

Two advanced characterization techniques, a revived and an emerging one, offer direct experimental access even to such complex atomic structures: Diffuse Scattering and Atomic Resolution Holography. Finally, in this overview, we introduce their specific application to aperiodic crystals and discuss their merits and difficulties.

Benchmarking of X‐Ray Fluorescence Microscopy with Ion Beam Implanted Samples Showing Detection Sensitivity of Hundreds of Atoms

Abstract Single impurities in insulators are now often used for quantum sensors and single photon sources, while nanoscale semiconductor doping features are being constructed for electrical contacts in quantum technology devices, implying that new methods for sensitive, non‐destructive imaging of single‐ or few‐atom structures are needed. X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) can provide nanoscale imaging with chemical specificity, and features comprising as few as 100 000 atoms have been detected without any need for specialized or destructive sample preparation. Presently, the ultimate limits of sensitivity of XRF are unknown – here, gallium dopants in silicon are investigated using a high brilliance, synchrotron source collimated to a small spot. It is demonstrated that with a single‐pixel integration time of 1 s, the sensitivity is sufficient to identify a single isolated feature of only 3000 Ga impurities (a mass of just 350 zg). With increased integration (25 s), 650 impurities can be detected. The results are quantified using a calibration sample consisting of precisely controlled numbers of implanted atoms in nanometer‐sized structures. The results show that such features can now be mapped quantitatively when calibration samples are used, and suggest that, in the near future, planned upgrades to XRF facilities might achieve single‐atom sensitivity.

Scalable Bottom-Up Synthesis of Nanoporous Hexagonal Boron Nitride ( h -BN) for Large-Area Atomically Thin Ceramic Membranes

Nanopores embedded within monolayer hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) offer possibilities of creating atomically thin ceramic membranes with unique combinations of high permeance (atomic thinness), high selectivity (via molecular sieving), increased thermal stability, and superior chemical resistance. However, fabricating size-selective nanopores in monolayer h-BN via scalable top-down processes remains nontrivial due to its chemical inertness, and characterizing nanopore size distribution over a large area remains extremely challenging. Here, we demonstrate a facile and scalable approach of exploiting the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process temperature to enable direct incorporation of subnanometer/nanoscale pores into the monolayer h-BN lattice, in combination with manufacturing compatible polymer casting to fabricate centimeter-scale nanoporous atomically thin ceramic membranes. We leverage diffusive transport of analytes including size-selective Ficoll sieving to characterize subnanometer-scale and nanoscale defects that manifest as pores in centimeter-scale h-BN membranes, overcoming previous limitations in large-area characterization of nanoscale defects in h-BN. Our approach opens a new frontier to advance atomically thin membranes to 2D ceramic materials, such as h-BN via facile and direct formation of nanopores, for size-selective separations.

Tuning the Coordination Environment of Rh Single Atoms on Highly Dispersed Reducible Oxides for Enhanced Reverse Water-Gas Shift Performance

Controlling the dynamic mobility of catalyst surface active sites and their interactions with the surrounding environment is critical in generating active surfaces that directly influence the catalytic activity and selectivity. Here, we report a strategy for tailoring the dispersion and electronic environment of single atom Rh catalysts by decorating the alumina support with highly dispersed (HD) cerium and molybdenum oxides. The resulting catalysts exhibit markedly different behavior in the Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) reaction. In particular, Rh/MoOx(HD)/Al2O3 maintains atomically dispersed Rh even at elevated temperatures (up to 400 °C), achieving CO selectivity of up to 100% and resists sintering via the formation of a newly developed structure featuring Rh single atoms embedded in MoOx clusters. In situ spectroscopy and microscopy analyses confirm the stabilization of Rh and the dynamic evolution of Rh–Mo coordination under reaction conditions. Our findings highlight the power of support modification in steering active site structure and activity, offering a pathway toward enhanced and tunable single atom catalysts for CO2 valorization.

Photocatalytic Semiconductor–Metal Hybrid Nanoparticles: Single-Atom Catalyst Regime Surpasses Metal Tips

Semiconductor–metal hybrid nanoparticles (HNPs) are promising materials for photocatalytic applications, such as water splitting for green hydrogen generation. While most studies have focused on Cd containing HNPs, the realization of actual applications will require environmentally compatible systems. Using heavy-metal free ZnSe-Au HNPs as a model, we investigate the dependence of their functionality and efficiency on the cocatalyst metal domain characteristics ranging from the single-atom catalyst (SAC) regime to metal-tipped systems. The SAC regime was achieved via the deposition of individual atomic cocatalysts on the semiconductor nanocrystals in solution. Utilizing a combination of electron microscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we established the presence of single Au atoms on the ZnSe nanorod surface. Upon increased Au concentration, this transitions to metal tip growth. Photocatalytic hydrogen generation measurements reveal a strong dependence on the cocatalyst loading with a sharp response maximum in the SAC regime. Ultrafast dynamics studies show similar electron decay kinetics for the pristine ZnSe nanorods and the ZnSe-Au HNPs in either SAC or tipped systems. This indicates that electron transfer is not the rate-limiting step for the photocatalytic process. Combined with the structural-chemical characterization, we conclude that the enhanced photocatalytic activity is due to the higher reactivity of the single-atom sites. This holistic view establishes the significance of SAC-HNPs, setting the stage for designing efficient and sustainable heavy-metal-free photocatalyst nanoparticles for numerous applications.

Manipulating the Second Coordination Shell of Single-Atom Fe for Enhanced Fenton Reaction

While current methods use oxidizable metals as electron donors to effectively reduce Fe 3+ , they suffer from the irreversible oxidation of these metals, ultimately compromising the catalyst’s longevity. To address this challenge, we engineered the second coordination shell of a single-atom Fe center by doping boron (B) onto a graphene-based support (Fe 1 /B-graphene) and utilized H 2 O 2 as the electron source for efficient Fe 2+ regeneration. Experimental results, supported by theoretical calculations, revealed that the Fe–O–B motif functions like a micro galvanic cell, with intermediary O atoms facilitating electron transfer between electrodes. Specifically, electrons consumed during H 2 O 2 activation at Fe 1 sites (positive electrode) are replenished by electrons extracted from H 2 O 2 at B atoms (negative electrode), where the activation energy for H 2 O 2 oxidation is significantly lower than that at Fe 1 sites. This study offers inspirational insights into the design of Fenton catalysts through precise regulation of the second coordination shell, demonstrating the potential of tailoring the outer coordination environment of single-atom catalysts to enhance catalytic performance across various reactions.

Atomic resolution coherent x-ray imaging with physics-based phase retrieval

Coherent x-ray imaging and scattering from accelerator based sources such as synchrotrons continue to impact biology, medicine, technology, and materials science. Many synchrotrons around the world are currently undergoing major upgrades to increase their available coherent x-ray flux by approximately two orders of magnitude. The improvement of synchrotrons may enable imaging of materials in operando at the atomic scale which may revolutionize battery and catalysis technologies. Current algorithms used for phase retrieval in coherent x-ray imaging are based on the projection onto sets method. These traditional iterative phase retrieval methods will become more computationally expensive as they push towards atomic resolution and may struggle to converge. Additionally, these methods do not incorporate physical information that may additionally constrain the solution. In this work, we present an algorithm which incorporates molecular dynamics into Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI). This algorithm, which we call PRAMMol (Phase Retrieval with Atomic Modeling and Molecular Dynamics) combines statistical techniques with molecular dynamics to solve the phase retrieval problem. We present several examples where our algorithm is applied to simulated coherent diffraction from 3D crystals and show convergence to the correct solution at the atomic scale.

Feature engineering descriptors, transforms, and machine learning for grain boundaries and variable-sized atom clusters

Abstract Obtaining microscopic structure-property relationships for grain boundaries is challenging due to their complex atomic structures. Recent efforts use machine learning to derive these relationships, but the way the atomic grain boundary structure is represented can have a significant impact on the predictions. Key steps for property prediction common to grain boundaries and other variable-sized atom clustered structures include: (1) describing the atomic structure as a feature matrix, (2) transforming the variable-sized feature matrix to a fixed length common to all structures, and (3) applying a machine learning algorithm to predict properties from the transformed matrices. We examine how these steps and different combinations of engineered features impact the accuracy of grain boundary energy predictions using a database of over 7000 grain boundaries. Additionally, we assess how different engineered features support interpretability, offering insights into the physics of the structure-property relationships.

Tungsten single-atom catalysts for the efficient conversion of isobutene into highly branched liquid hydrocarbons

The catalytic transformation of isobutene into branched liquid hydrocarbons is crucial for the production of reformulated gasoline and fuel additives. Conventional supported catalysts often lack high activity and selectivity toward the desired highly branched dimers and trimers in isobutene oligomerization. Here, by developing a tungsten single-atom catalyst (W SAC ) atomically dispersed on a silica-doped alumina (SDA) support, we report that the W SAC /SDA catalyst enables efficient and selective conversion of isobutene into highly branched C 8 and C 12 liquid olefins while suppressing the formation of heavier hydrocarbons. The atomically dispersed W 1 –O 3 moieties incorporated within the SDA support were synthesized via a high-temperature pyrolysis of a templating zinc metal–organic framework (Zn-MOF) under argon, followed by annealing in static air. The W SAC /SDA catalysts with 1.6–3.7 wt% W loading exhibited single-atom dispersion (∼0.2 nm) and outstanding performance, achieving up to 60% and 95% selectivity to branched C8 olefins at 150 °C and 250 °C, respectively, under ambient pressure. With the demonstrated high activity, selectivity, and stability, the W SAC /SDA catalyst system presents a promising platform for next-generation heterogeneous catalysts for the efficient and selective upgrading of isobutene into high-performance fuel additives.
