Identification of a window for quiescent H-mode operation in MHD stability diagram of DIII-D plasmas

A window for quiescent H-mode (QH-mode) operation in DIII-D plasmas in the diagram of pedestal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stability was identified through linear MHD stability analysis, accounting for the effects of plasma rotation and ion diamagnetic drift. The operation window lies between the stability boundaries of the kink/peeling mode (K/PM) identified with and without the inclusion of plasma rotation effects. In this region, the mode remains unstable unless rotation effects are considered alongside the ion diamagnetic drift, which is consistently included in the analysis. The stabilization of the MHD mode, facilitated by the coupled effects of plasma rotation and ion diamagnetic drift, plays a crucial role in widening the window, enabling the attainment of the QH-mode state. Furthermore, the suppression of edge localized modes (ELM) can be achieved by controlling the pedestal structure to ensure the plasma state remains within the operation window. The location of the operation window in the stability diagram depends on the K/PM stability properties. Therefore, optimizing conditions for QH-mode requires adjustments based on changes in stability characteristics. A pressure pedestal and its associated bootstrap current density near the last closed flux surface are advantageous for situating the plasma state within the window. However, excessive current density can trigger ELMs. This trend was confirmed through comparisons of MHD stability diagrams between QH-mode and ELMy H-mode plasmas.

Ultrafast exciton and trion dynamics in highly 𝑛-doped Mo⁢S 2 monolayers: Many-body effects

Understanding many-body interactions of excitons and charge carriers in monolayer semiconductors is crucial for tuning their unique optical properties and optimizing their performance in optoelectronic devices. However, the sensitivity of these atomically thin semiconductors to doping, defects, and strain–arising from synthesis, substrate, and environmental conditions–hinders consistent observation of many-body effects. In this work, we employed linear and ultrafast transient optical absorption spectroscopy to investigate the influence of background doping on exciton many-body interactions in Mo⁢S 2 monolayers. Using reversible molecular physisorption gating, we achieved a high background doping density of 4.9 × 10 13 c⁢m −2 in an argon environment, which is significantly higher than those attainable with conventional electrical gating. Our results reveal a photoinduced 𝐴-exciton resonance redshift, attributed to band-gap renormalization at a low background-doping density of 4.3 × 10 12 c⁢m −2 in an air environment, transitioning to a blueshift at a high background-doping density of 4.9 × 10 13 c⁢m −2 due to dominant Pauli blocking effects and vertical excitation shifts. We further observed transient energy splitting between free-exciton and -trion states up to 57 meV due to exciton-electron interactions. The ultrafast spectroscopy further revealed exciton and trion dynamics, including fast energy splitting of exciton and trion resonances within 1 picosecond (ps) followed by a rapid decay having a lifetime of ∼5.4 ps. Furthermore, our results demonstrate the critical role of background-doping conditions in tuning many-body interactions and quasiparticle dynamics in 2D semiconductors, providing valuable insights for future device design and material engineering.

Enhanced magnetic moments in Mn-doped FeCo clusters owing to ferromagnetic surface Mn atoms

Here, we provide an avenue to achieve optimized magnetic properties without relying on rare-earth elements. In particular, we focus on transition-metal nanoparticles with magnetic ordering that is rarely seen in bulk. By using first-principles real-space pseudopotential calculations, we show that Mn can exhibit ferromagnetic behavior similar to Fe when Mn is placed on the surface of a FeCo cluster. This ferromagnetic behavior of surface Mn is in sharp contrast with Mn bulk and Mn-based alloys, which are either antiferromagnetic or paramagnetic. The local magnetic moment carried by a surface Mn atom is larger than those of Fe and Co, leading to an increase of the total magnetic moment. We find that surface-Mn-induced magnetic enhancement is robust in ternary MnFeCo clusters with different sizes and various chemical compositions. Our theoretical findings provide a useful guide for designing new nanoparticles with a large magnetic moment.

Quasilinear dispersion in electronic band structure and high Seebeck coefficient in CuFeS 2 -based thermoelectric materials

The earth-abundant natural mineral chalcopyrite CuFeS 2 is a potential n-type thermoelectric material because of its large Seebeck coefficient at high carrier concentrations. For a long time, the large Seebeck coefficient of CuFeS 2 has been attributed to a large electron effective mass, but the reasons for this and the unusual carrier concentration dependent behavior have rarely been discussed. Here, we systematically investigated the special transport behavior of CuFeS 2 and found the classical parabolic band model to be inadequate in explaining it. Our experimental and theoretical studies indicate that there are two flat electronic pockets at the and Z points of the Brillouin zone near the conduction band edge of CuFeS 2 that dominate the charge transport. These electronic pockets result from nonparabolic quasilinearly dispersing bands that give rise to a linear wave vector dependent energy (E ~ k) and a carrier density dependent effective mass (m* ~ m 0 n 1/3 ). Such a strong carrier concentration dependent carrier effective mass results in the high Seebeck coefficient of CuFeS 2 compound under a large carrier density. Here, the work demonstrates that quasilinearly dispersing bands can give strongly enhanced Seebeck coefficient, and could be useful in optimizing the properties of thermoelectric materials.

Elements Required for an Efficient NADP-Malic Enzyme Type C4 Photosynthesis

Abstract C4 photosynthesis has higher light, nitrogen, and water use efficiencies than C3 photosynthesis. Although the basic anatomical, cellular, and biochemical features of C4 photosynthesis are well understood, the quantitative significance of each element of C4 photosynthesis to the high photosynthetic efficiency are not well defined. Here, we addressed this question by developing and using a systems model of C4 photosynthesis, which includes not only the Calvin-Benson cycle, starch synthesis, sucrose synthesis, C4 shuttle, and CO2 leakage, but also photorespiration and metabolite transport between the bundle sheath cells and mesophyll cells. The model effectively simulated the CO2 uptake rates, and the changes of metabolite concentrations under varied CO2 and light levels. Analyses show that triose phosphate transport and CO2 leakage can help maintain a high photosynthetic rate by balancing ATP and NADPH amounts in bundle sheath cells and mesophyll cells. Finally, we used the model to define the optimal enzyme properties and a blueprint for C4 engineering. As such, this model provides a theoretical framework for guiding C4 engineering and studying C4 photosynthesis in general.

Local orthorhombic phase in zirconium oxide nanocrystals: insights from X-ray pair distribution function analysis

Zirconium dioxide (ZrO 2 ) and hafnium dioxide (HfO 2 ) have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional ferroelectric materials. Understanding the crystal phases of these oxides under different conditions is crucial for optimizing their properties. There are several theories for the (anti)ferroelectric properties; however, comprehensive analysis, particularly at the local structure level, is lacking. In this study, we investigate the local structure of ZrO 2 nanocrystals using X-ray pair distribution function (PDF) analysis, revealing an unexpected local orthorhombic distortion irrespective of crystallite size. This finding suggests the potential existence of an intermediate orthorhombic phase during the microscopic switching pathway observed in previous studies. Additionally, we explore the influence of crystallite size and surface effects on the PDF. These results contribute to a deeper understanding of the structural dynamics in ZrO 2 and offer insights for the design of next-generation ferroelectric materials.

Low-Cd CIGS solar cells made with a hybrid CdS/Zn(O,S) buffer layer

In Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells, CdS and Zn(O,S) buffer layers were compared with a hybrid buffer layer consisting of thin CdS followed Zn(O,S). We explore the physics of this hybrid layer that combines the standard (Cd) approach with the alternative (Zn) approach in the pursuit to unlock further potential for CIGS technology. CdS buffer development has shown optimal interface properties, whereas Zn(O,S) buffer development has shown increased photocurrent. Although a totally Cd-free solar module is more marketable, the retention of a small amount of Cd can be beneficial to achieve optimum junction properties. As long as the amount of Cd is reduced to less than 0.01% by weight, the presence of Cd does not violate the hazardous substance restrictions of the European Union (EU). We estimate the amount of Cd allowed in the EU for CIGS on both glass and stainless steel substrates, and we show that reducing Cd becomes increasingly important as substrate weights decrease. As a result, this hybrid buffer layer had reduced Cd content and a wider space charge region, while achieving equal or better solar cell performance than buffer layers of either CdS or Zn(O,S) alone.

Revisiting metastable immiscibility in SiO 2 –Al 2 O 3 : Structure and phase separation of supercooled liquids and glasses

Understanding and controlling liquid–liquid phase separation in aluminosilicates is crucial for optimizing glass properties. However, the metastable nature of aluminosilicates’ phase separation has made it difficult to study experimentally, and uncertainty persists regarding the compositional and temperature extents of the miscibility gap. Here, we present new experimental evidence that suggests a consolute temperature between 1440 and 1590°C and endmember compositions of 7 and 62 mol.% Al 2 O 3 for the phase-separated glasses. Using containerless melt processing, deeply supercooled liquids over the 0–60 mol.% Al 2 O 3 range are probed with in situ small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering, which simultaneously reveals changes in nanoscale density heterogeneity and atomic structure. Correlations between phase separation and atomic coordination environments are compared for liquids and glasses. Pair distribution function analysis shows mean O–(Si + Al) coordination increases with Al 2 O 3 content and decreases with temperature.

Propagation distance-resolved characteristics of filament-induced copper plasma

Copper plasma generated at different filament-copper interaction points was characterized by spectroscopic, acoustic, and imaging measurements. The longitudinal variation of the filament intensity was qualitatively determined by acoustic measurements in air. The maximum plasma temperature was measured at the location of peak filament intensity, corresponding to the maximum mean electron energy during plasma formation. The highest copper plasma density was measured past the location of the maximum electron density in the filament, where spectral broadening of the filament leads to enhanced ionization. Acoustic measurements in air and on solid target were correlated to reconstructed plasma properties. Lastly, optimal line emission is measured near the geometric focus of the lens used to produce the filament.

Fuel Cell Tech Team Meeting: Engineered Nano-scale Ceramic Supports for PEM Fuel Cells [Slides]

Catalyst support durability is currently a technical barrier for commercialization of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells, especially for transportation applications. Degradation and corrosion of the conventional carbon supports leads to losses in active catalyst surface area and, consequently, reduced performance. As a result, the goal of this work is to develop support materials that interact strongly with Pt, yet sustain bulk-like catalytic activities with very highly dispersed particles. Ceramic materials that are prepared using conventional solid-state methods have large grain sizes and low surface areas that can only be minimally ameliorated through grinding and ball milling. Other synthesis routes to produce ceramic materials must be investigated and utilized in order to obtain desired surface areas. In this work, several different synthesis methods are being utilized to prepare electronically conductive ceramic boride, nitride, and oxide materials with high surface areas and have the potential for use as PEMFC catalyst supports. Polymer-assisted deposition (PAD) and aerosol-through plasma (A-T-P) torch are among several methods used to obtain ceramic materials with surface areas that are equal to, or exceed Vulcan XC-72R supports. Cubic Mo-based ceramic phases have been prepared with average XRD-determined crystallite sizes as low as 1.6 nm (from full profile, XRD fitting) and a BET surface area exceeding 200 m 2 /g. Additionally, black, sub-stoichiometric TiO 2-x , have been prepared with an average crystallite size in the 4 nm range and surface areas exceeding 250 m 2 /gr. Pt disposition using an incipient wetness approach produced materials with activity for hydrogen redox reactions and ORR. Cyclic voltammetry data will be shown for a variety of potential Pt/ceramic catalysts. Initial experiments indicate enhanced Pt metal-support interactions as well. Plane wave periodic density functional calculations (VASP) are being used to predict the thermodynamic and activation barriers for fundamental electrode processes occurring at platinum surfaces supported on thin films of the ceramic support materials. The results of this work will be used in order to optimize support properties.

Engineered core/shell quantum dots as phosphors for solid-state lighting

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for solid state light ing (SSL) typically combine a blue or near- ultraviolet drive LED with one or more dow nconverting phosphors to produce “white” light. Further advances in both efficiency and wh ite-light quality will re quire new phosphors with narrow-band, highly efficient emission, particul arly in the red. A team led by principal investigator Dr. Victor Klim ov of Los Alamos National Labo ratory proposes to develop engineered semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) that combine optimal luminescent properties with long-term stability under ty pical downconverting conditions to enable new performance levels in SSL. The white LED phosphor industry is estimated to have sales of roughly $400 million in 2018 and would significantly benefit from the development of bright and narrow red-emitting QD phosphors because they woul d enable warmer whites without wasting energy by emission of light beyond the response of the human eye. In order to capitalize on the market opportunity, the LANL team is partnering with a local company called UbiQD that will facilitate US manufacturing.

Additive Manufacturing of Near-net Shaped Permanent Magnets

The technical objective of this technical collaboration phase I proposal is to fabricate near net-shaped permanent magnets using alloy powders utilizing direct metal deposition technologies at the ORNL MDF. Direct Manufacturing using the POM laser system was used to consolidate Nd 2 Fe 14 B (NdFeB) magnet powders into near net-shape parts efficiently and with virtually no wasted material as part of the feasibility study. We fabricated builds based on spherical NdFeB magnet particles. The results show that despite the ability to fabricate highly reactive materials in the laser deposition process, the magnetic coercivity and remanence of the NdFeB hard magnets is significantly reduced. X-ray powder diffraction in conjunction with electron microscopy showed that the material experienced a primary Nd 2 Fe 17 B x solidification due to the undercooling effect (>60K). Consequently the presence of alpha iron phase resulted in deterioration of the build properties. Further optimization of the processing parameters is needed to maintain the Nd 2 Fe 14 B phase during fabrication.

Mesoscale Design of Magnetoelectric Heterostructures and Nanocomposites

Multiferroic materials have a coexistence of at least two ferroic orders. The coupling interaction between the different order parameters can produce new phenomena, such as the magnetoelectric (ME) effect. The ME response is the appearance of an electric polarization P upon applying a magnetic field H, and/or vice versa. Magnetoelectricity has been observed as an intrinsic effect in some natural materials at low temperature; however, such single phase materials suffer from extremely weak ME exchange. Better alternatives are two-phase composites consisting of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric phases, which have been shown to have large ME coefficients. Said composites exploit a unique product ME tensor property that depends upon the individual strictions of the piezoelectric and magnetostrictive phases, the elastic stiffness and integrity of the interphase interfaces, the phase distribution and the dimensionality of its connectivity, and any elastic constraint; amongst other things. This research program between D. Viehland PI and S.Priya at Virginia Tech investigated the mesoscale physics and chemistry of such two-phase ME heterostructures. The results of the proposed research are relevant to new generations of multifunctional materials involving heterogeneous components. How the product ME property be optimized? The answers lies with the interphase-interfaces, where the atomic layers coordinate stress transfer from one phase to another. It was the primary goal of this research program to discover such fundamental relationship for two phase ME heterostructures and nanocomposites. This research program integrated all the components required to fully investigate the ME phenomenon: starting from synthesis of nanomaterials with diversified interfacial characteristics; to full electrical, magnetic, and structural characterizations.

Catalytic Bio-crude Production in a Novel, Short-Contact Time Reactor

RTI has developed a catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) process to produce biomass-based hydrocarbon replacement fuels. From a technology perspective, this advanced biofuels process produces liquid transportation fuels that can leverage capital expenditures in the existing petroleum distribution infrastructure. From a business perspective, this technology does not face potential market limitations caused by oxygenate blend limitations for light duty vehicle applications. A promising catalyst has been developed with excellent potential for deoxygenation to produce a hydrocarbon-rich biocrude that is more suitable for upgrading with traditional hydroprocessing technology. The role of the catalyst is to control the chemistry during biomass pyrolysis to produce a biocrude in a single step that has lower oxygen content and is more thermally stable than conventional biomass fast pyrolysis oil. Catalyst properties are optimized to minimize gas and coke production and improve catalytic deoxygenation and biocrude yields. Results from this project have demonstrated that biocrudes from catalytic fast pyrolysis contain <20 wt% oxygen, with the organic fraction as low as 12% oxygen. These oxygen numbers are > 50% lower compared to traditional fast pyrolysis oils. The biocrude produced from our CFP process can be upgraded to gasoline range hydrocarbons. A very conservative approach for upgrading included a preliminary stabilization step followed by a hydroprocessing step. The oxygen content in the upgraded product was decreased by 97% (to less than 3wt %) from the oxygen content of the biocrude sample. Additionally, the acid content was reduced by 99% from the acid content of the biocrude sample. In an optimized integrated process, the CFP step and the hydroprocessing (upgrading) step need to be carefully balanced to maximize the input biomass energy that is recovered in the finished biofuels. Hydrogen utilization and carbon recovery during both catalytic biomass pyrolysis and biocrude upgrading need to be optimized to maximize energy recovery in the finished biofuel. A nominal 1 ton per day (TPD) catalytic biomass pyrolysis system was designed based on the laboratory experimental data. The system was designed to achieve the short residence times (0.5–2 sec) and high heat transfer rates required for maximum liquid biocrude yields while optimizing process integration to maintain catalyst activity by continuous regeneration. The catalytic biomass pyrolysis reactor is a continuously circulating single-loop transport reactor design that is flexible enough to allow sensitivity studies around temperature, residence time, biomass feed rate, and catalyst-to-biomass ratio (i.e., catalyst circulation rate) for process optimization. For a nominal 100 lb/hr feed rate of dry biomass, the products include ~25 lb/hr char and coke, ~20 lb/hr permanent gases, and ~55 lb/hr condensable vapors. Pyrolysis temperatures are 350–600°C, and the system is operated close to ambient pressure. Production of the catalyst developed within the project was scaled up to provide enough material (200kg) for bench-scale testing. The 1TPD bench-scale unit was fabricated, installed and commissioned with this project. Biocrude samples from wood were produced in this unit with the CFP catalyst with material balance > 90%. The intermediate biocrude yields and chemical composition compare well with previous laboratory results and a hydroprocessing strategy for upgrading the resulting biocrude was developed. The experimental results obtained within this project were used to develop a process model for a 2000 TPD commercial facility. Detailed flow sheets were developed for all major unit operations in the process and provided a basis for an economic analysis to develop capital and operating costs. Estimates of the biofuel production costs were used to develop internal rates of return for the yields and compositions measured for the current state of technology at the end of this project and for the yields anticipated for an optimized (nth plant) scenario as additional process improvements are made.

In-Situ Pipeline Coatings for Methane Emissions Mitigation and Quantification from Natural Gas Pipelines

Addressing the current health of the nation’s existing 3 million miles of pipeline infrastructure is key to preventing further climate change. In 2020, natural gas production exceeded 34 trillion cubic feet (Tcf). Roughly 75% of natural gas consists of methane (CH 4 ), which is up to 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) at trapping heat within the atmosphere over a 100-year period, and studies from the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) estimate approximately 2% of all the natural gas produced will be lost during normal operations due to unaddressed leaks. This does not even consider the risks of major disaster due to pipeline failure, or the losses and extra fuel costs incurred due to corrosion and scale deposits in under-maintained pipelines. The objective of the proposed research is to demonstrate the protection capabilities and economic benefits of Oceanit’s internal pipe surface treatment, known as DragX™. DragX™ is a chemically resistant, water-and-oil repellent nanocomposite system that can be readily applied in-situ on natural gas transmission and distribution pipelines with a minimum of surface preparation. This makes it an ideal candidate for in-place retrofitting and refurbishment of existing pipelines without the need for expensive extraction and replacement. DragX™ is also able to significantly reduce the surface roughness, and subsequently, the frictional drag forces within a pipeline, improving throughput, decreasing energy costs of pressurization and pumping, and allowing for longer pipeline operation without interruption, reducing the methane emitted during pipe isolation and venting. As part of this project, Oceanit has utilized the Department of Energy’s support to fully develop, de-risk and prove the DragX™ core technology is both economically viable and commercially desirable to pipeline operators and energy companies alike. DragX™ material properties were optimized in this effort both for ease of applicability, to provide value in certain key parameters, and was demonstrated on pilot applications exceeding 2 miles in length. Beyond the already field demonstrated applications, this innovative nanocomposite surface treatment has the potential to be the backbone for CO 2 and Hydrogen transporting pipeline infrastructure. The learnings from this project could accelerate the deployment of surface treatment technologies related to the energy transition infrastructure, thus benefitting the clean energy initiatives in the United States and all around the world.
