First-principles insights into Si substitution effects in Sm 2 (Fe,Si) 17 C x magnet

The partial substitution of Fe by Si enhances the phase stability of Sm 2 Fe 17 C x magnets with x > 1.0. Here, we elucidate the Si-substitution scheme and its impact on phase stability and magnetic properties in Sm 2 (Fe,Si) 17 C 3 from first-principles calculations and chemical bonding analysis. The calculated substitution energies for Si at various Fe sites are negative, indicating improved phase stability. Si preferentially substitutes Fe atoms at the 9d site in Sm 2 (Fe,Si) 17 C 3 while it tends to enter the Fe 18h site in Sm 2 (Fe,Si) 17 . This difference in site preference is attributed to the distinct chemical environments surrounding the Fe (Si) sites in the two compounds. Si substitution favors the formation of Sm–Si bonds while minimizing the Si–C and Si–Si interactions. Crystal orbital Hamilton populations and crystal orbital bond index calculations indicate that the partial replacement of Fe with Si strengthens the chemical bonding of Sm–Fe 3 (18f) and Sm–Fe 4 (18h) and improves overall phase stability in Sm 2 (Fe,Si) 17 C 3 . Beyond the dilution effect, Si substitution also reduces the magnetic moments of neighboring Fe atoms, a phenomenon linked to the strong Fe–Si bonding. These findings highlight the dual role of Si in modifying both the structural and magnetic characteristics of Sm 2 Fe 17 -based magnetic compounds.

Chromium-for-Aluminum Substitution in Synthetic Serpentine

Cr-bearing clay minerals are products of hydrothermal alteration and fluid–rock interactions of ultramafic rocks that form serpentine minerals. Cr is typically observed to substitute for Al in serpentine minerals, but the crystal chemistry and environmental constraints on this substitution are unknown. Here, we synthesized endmember and Cr-substituted amesite, a typical Al-serpentine mineral, via the hydrothermal method. We found that the phase purity highly depends on the pH of the hydrothermal solution, which should be controlled at ~12.7 to avoid the formation of impurity phases. Additionally, amesite can incorporate Cr at a concentration equivalent to ~39.5% substitution of Al. The Cr-free and Cr-substituted amesite are highly defective and contain multiple polytypes, including 6R 2 , 2M 1 , and possibly 2H 2 . However, the relative proportions of these polytypes do not change with increasing chromium substitution.

Processing and properties of PSZT 95/5 ceramics with varying Ti and Nb substitution

Niobium doped lead-tin-zirconate-titanate ceramics near the PZT 95/5 orthorhombic AFE – rhombohedral FE morphotropic phase boundary Pb 1-0.5y (Zr 0.865-x Ti x Sn 0.135 ) 1-y Nb y O 3 were prepared according to a 2 2+1 factorial design with x = 0.05, 0.07 and y = 0.0155, 0.0195. The ceramics were prepared by a traditional solid-state synthesis route and sintered to near full density at 1250°C for 6 hours. All compositions were ~98% dense with no detectable secondary phases by XRD. The ceramics exhibited equiaxed grains with intergranular porosity and grain size was ~5 μm, decreasing with niobium substitution. Compositions exhibited remnant polarization values of ~32 μC/cm 2 , increasing with Ti substitution. Depolarization by the hydrostatic pressure induced FE-AFE phase transition was drastically affected by variation of the Ti and Nb substitution, increasing at a rate of 113 MPa / 1% Ti and 21 MPa / 1% Nb. Total depolarization output was insensitive to the change in Ti and Nb substitution, ~32.8 μC/cm 2 for the PSZT ceramics. The R3c-R3m and R3m-Pm3m phase transition temperatures on heating ranged from 90 to 105°C and 183 to 191°C, respectively. Ti substitution stabilized the R3c and R3m phases to higher temperatures, while Nb substitution stabilized the Pm3m phase to lower temperatures. Thermal hysteresis of the phase transitions was also observed in the ceramics, with transition temperature on cooling being as much as 10°C lower.

Understanding the origin of magneto-crystalline anisotropy in pure and Fe/Si substituted SmCo 5

In this paper, we report magneto-crystalline anisotropy of pure and Fe/Si substituted SmCo5. The calculations were performed using the advanced density functional theory (DFT) including onsite electron-electron correlation and spin-orbit coupling. Si substitution substantially reduces both the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and the magnetic moment. Fe substitution with the selective site, on the other hand, enhances the magnetic moment with a limited chemical stability. The magnetic hardness of the SmCo5 is governed by the Sm 4f localized orbital contribution. The 4f density of states (DOS) becomes flat and split with the substitution of Co (2c) with Si/Fe atoms, except with the Fe substitution at 3 g sites. It is also confirmed that Si substitution favors the thermodynamic stability on contrary to the diminished magnetic and anisotropic effects in SmCo5 at either sites.

Aliovalent Substitution Tunes Physical Properties in a Conductive Bis(dithiolene) Two-Dimensional Metal–Organic Framework

Two-dimensional conductive metal–organic frameworks have emerged as promising electronic materials for applications in (opto)electronic, thermoelectric, magnetic, electrocatalytic, and energy storage devices. Many bottom-up or postsynthetic protocols have been developed to isolate these materials or further modulate their electronic properties. However, some methodologies commonly used in classic semiconductors, notably, aliovalent substitution, are conspicuously absent. Here, in this work, we demonstrate how aliovalent Fe(III) to Ni(II) substitution enables the isolation of a Ni bis(dithiolene) material from a previously reported Fe analogue. Detailed characterization supports the idea that aliovalent substitution of Fe(III) to Ni(II) results in an in situ oxidation of the organic dithiolene linker. This substitution-induced redox tuning modulates the electronic properties in the system, leading to higher electrical conductivity and Hall mobility but slightly lower carrier densities and weaker antiferromagnetic interactions. Moreover, this aliovalent substitution improves the material’s electrochemical stability and thus enables pseudocapacitive behavior in the Ni material. These results demonstrate how classic aliovalent substitution strategies in semiconductors can also be leveraged in conductive MOFs and add further support to this class of compounds as emerging electronic materials.

Data-driven multi-element substitution of TiFe alloys for tunable thermodynamics and enhanced activation behaviour for hydrogen storage

Due to their high volumetric hydrogen storage capacity under moderate storage conditions, TiFe alloys have been widely investigated as candidates for practical solid-state hydrogen storage. Partially substituting Ti or Fe sites can improve the key characteristics of TiFe alloys, such as the first hydrogen absorption step (activation) and the equilibrium hydrogen pressure (thermodynamic properties). However, the selection of substitution elements has heavily relied on intuition and trial-and-error. Also, conventional substitution strategies have mainly focused on single-element substitution within the TiFe alloy, limiting the design space and tunability for target applications. Here, to address this limitation, we report a multi-element substitution strategy motivated by an efficient, data-driven machine learning (ML) approach combined with corroborating density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Our models successfully predict experimentally measured hydride stability in five selected alloys using only compositional descriptors. Most importantly, the multi-element substitution leads to enhanced activation properties compared to pure TiFe, achieving near room-temperature activation behaviour. This work provides a method for on-demand tuning of hydrogen storage and activation properties, which may have broad implications for data-driven discovery of energy storage materials.

Biochemical Characterization of Rice Xylan Biosynthetic Enzymes in Determining Xylan Chain Elongation and Substitutions

Abstract Grass xylan consists of a linear chain of β-1,4-linked xylosyl residues that often form domains substituted only with either arabinofuranose (Araf) or glucuronic acid (GlcA)/methylglucuronic acid (MeGlcA) residues, and it lacks the unique reducing end tetrasaccharide sequence found in dicot xylan. The mechanism of how grass xylan backbone elongation is initiated and how its distinctive substitution pattern is determined remains elusive. Here, we performed biochemical characterization of rice xylan biosynthetic enzymes, including xylan synthases, glucuronyltransferases and methyltransferases. Activity assays of rice xylan synthases demonstrated that they required short xylooligomers as acceptors for their activities. While rice xylan glucuronyltransferases effectively glucuronidated unsubstituted xylohexaose acceptors, they transferred little GlcA residues onto (Araf)-substituted xylohexaoses and rice xylan 3-O-arabinosyltransferase could not arabinosylate GlcA-substituted xylohexaoses, indicating that their intrinsic biochemical properties may contribute to the distinctive substitution patterns of rice xylan. In addition, we found that rice xylan methyltransferase exhibited a low substrate binding affinity, which may explain the partial GlcA methylation in rice xylan. Furthermore, immunolocalization of xylan in xylem cells of both rice and Arabidopsis showed that it was deposited together with cellulose in secondary walls without forming xylan-rich nanodomains. Together, our findings provide new insights into the biochemical mechanisms underlying xylan backbone elongation and substitutions in grass species.

Suppression of ferromagnetism governed by a critical lattice parameter in CeTiGe 3 with hydrostatic pressure or V substitution

We combine structural and magnetic measurements to compare the different magnetic phase diagrams between the pressure and substitution studies in CeTiGe 3 . We report on the structural, magnetic, and electrical transport properties of single crystals of CeTi 1–x V x Ge 3 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.9, and 1), and of polycrystalline samples (x = 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8), as well as structural properties of CeTiGe 3 under pressure up to 9 GPa. The ferromagnetic ordering in CeTiGe 3 is suppressed with V doping in CeTi 1–x V x Ge 3 , and suggests a possible ferromagnetic quantum critical point near x = 0.45. We perform a detailed crystalline electric field (CEF) analysis, and the magnetic susceptibility data in pure CeTiGe 3 and CeVGe 3 can be well explained by the CEF model. The proposed CEF energy levels suggest that there is a gradual change of the ground state from |±5/2 in CeTiGe 3 to |±1/2 in CeVGe 3 , and a suppression of CEF splitting energies near the quantum critical region. When hydrostatic pressure is used instead of chemical substitution, the quantum critical point is avoided by the appearance of magnetic phases above around 4.1 GPa. In the substitution study, the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic regions are well separated, whereas they touch in the pressure study. We observe a different trend in the temperature dependence of the resistivity maximum in both studies, suggesting that the CEF splitting energy is suppressed by V substitution but enhanced by pressure. Here, we also observe different responses in lattice constants between the two studies, highlighting the fact that substitution effects cannot be reduced to chemical pressure effects only. Nevertheless, when the magnetic phase diagrams of both hydrostatic pressure and substitution are compared, we find a common critical lattice constant c = 5.78 Å where the ferromagnetic ordering is suppressed in both studies.

Method and composition for reducing nitrates, nitrites, and/or hydroxylamine in water using a homogeneous reduced copper tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand catalyst complex

A method for reducing nitrates, nitrites, and/or hydroxylamine in water using a homogeneous reduced copper tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand catalyst complex. The method includes dissolving a copper(II) tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand pre-catalyst complex in water having an excess amount of nitrates, nitrites, and/or hydroxylamine therein. The dissolved copper(II) tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand pre-catalyst complex in the water is subjected to electrochemical reduction to form a homogeneous reduced copper tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand catalyst complex. The homogeneous reduced copper tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand catalyst complex reduces the nitrates, nitrites, and/or hydroxylamine in the water to compounds with nitrogen in a lower oxidation state with the homogeneous reduced copper tetra-substituted fluorinated pinacolate ligand catalyst complex.

A Circular and Tacticity‐Independent Crystalline Mono‐Substituted Nylon‐6 Platform: Unexpected Large Positional Effects on Crystallizability and Performance

Seeking recyclable, more sustainable alternatives to nylon 6 has drawn much attention, but achieving its variants with both crystallinity and enhanced recyclability still remains a challenge. Here, by utilizing bio-derivable mono-substituted racemic lactam monomers, we reveal surprisingly large effects of methyl substitution positions on the nylon-6 backbone on crystallizability, thermomechanical performance, and recyclability of the resulting atactic nylon-6 variants. While γ-methyl substitution gives an amorphous nylon, all other four methyl-substitution positions (α, β, δ, and ε) afford, unexpectedly, crystalline nylons with melting temperatures ranging from 145°C to 200°C and tunable mechanical performance from being stiff and strong (α, ε) to ductile (β, δ). Investigations reveal that the crystallinity of atactic nylons arises independently of stereoregularity, which is driven by the amide backbone with robust hydrogen-bonding interactions and countered by the chain flexibility regulated by the substitution position. These nylons can be chemically recycled back to their parent monomers with high isolated yields up to 92%, enabling a circular, tacticity-independent crystalline nylon platform.

Mechanism of Contrasting Ionic Conductivities in Li 2 ZrCl 6 via I and Br Substitution

Understanding the complex structural and chemical factors that influence ionic conduction mechanisms is paramount for developing advanced inorganic superionic conductors in all‐solid‐state batteries, particularly halide solid electrolytes with excellent electrochemical oxidative stability and mechanical sinterability. Herein, contrasting ionic conduction behaviors in I − and Br − substituted Li 2 ZrCl 6 are revealed by combining experimental structural analyses and theoretical calculations. The inter‐slab distance along the c ‐axis, which varies with the anion substitution and M2‐M3 site disorder, is a key factor for opening the ab ‐plane conduction and facilitating the overall Li + conduction. Increased M3 site occupancy generally leads to contracted inter‐slab distance. The substantial increase in Li + conductivity upon I substitution (from 0.40 to 0.91 mS cm −1 ) originates from a sufficiently expanded lattice volume owing to its large ionic radii (I − = 2.20 Å), particularly inter‐slab distance that facilitates the ab intra‐plane Li + conduction, which also benefits from decreased M2‐M3 disorder. In contrast, Br (Br − = 1.96 Å) substitution results in insufficiently expanded Li + channels, which, exacerbated by increased M2‐M3 disorder, leads to degradation in Li + conductivity. Implementing I − substituted Li 2 ZrCl 6 resulted in superior electrochemical performance in LiCoO 2 ||Li‐In cells compared to those with an unsubstituted catholyte.

Photoluminescence Induced by Substitutional Nitrogen in Single-Layer Tungsten Disulfide

The electronic and optical properties of two-dimensional materials can be strongly influenced by defects, some of which can find significant implementations, such as controllable doping, prolonged valley lifetime, and single-photon emissions. Here, we demonstrate that defects created by remote N 2 plasma exposure in single-layer WS 2 can induce a distinct low-energy photoluminescence (PL) peak at 1.59 eV, which is in sharp contrast to that caused by remote Ar plasma. This PL peak has a critical requirement on the N 2 plasma exposure dose, which is strongest for WS 2 with about 2.0% sulfur deficiencies (including substitutions and vacancies) and vanishes at 5.6% or higher sulfur deficiencies. Both experiments and first-principles calculations suggest that this 1.59 eV PL peak is caused by defects related to the sulfur substitutions by nitrogen, even though low-temperature PL measurements also reveal that not all the sulfur vacancies are remedied by the substitutional nitrogen. The distinct low-energy PL peak suggests that the substitutional nitrogen defect in single-layer WS 2 can potentially serve as an isolated artificial atom for creating single-photon emitters, and its intensity can also be used to monitor the doping concentrations of substitutional nitrogen.

Effect of the Nature of Both Cation and Anion Substitution on the Structural Symmetry of Li‐Rich 3 d ‐Metal Chalcogenide Electrodes

Abstract Li‐rich layered chalcogenides have recently led to better understanding of the anionic redox process and its associated high capacity while providing ways to overcome its practical limitations of voltage fade and irreversibility. This study reports on the feasibility of triggering anionic activity in Li 2 TiS 3 , through anionic substitution (Se for S) or cationic substitution (Fe for Ti). Herein, the chalcogenide chemical space is further explored to prepare mono‐substituted Li 1.7 Ti 0.85 Mn 0.45 Ch 3 (Ch = S/Se) and doubly substituted cationic and anionic phases (Li 1.7 Ti 0.85 Fe 0.45 S 3‐z Se z ) which crystallize either in the O3‐ or O1‐type structures depending upon substituents. All series show a bell‐shape capacity variation as function of the transition metal (TM) substitution degree with values up to 240 mAh g −1 . For specific compositions, a structural O3 to O1 phase transition is observed upon Li removal, which is not reversible upon Li re‐insertion due to kinetic limitations and negatively affects long‐term cycling performance. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations confirm the O3/O1 relative stability along the different series and point subtle electronic differences in the TM‐doping, rationalizing the structural and electrochemical behaviors of these phases upon cycling. These findings provide further insights into the link between structural and electronic stability, which is of key importance for designing chalcogenide‐based anionic redox compounds.

CoSn-type NiIn1–xSbx (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.17): Site-Selective Substitution, Electronic Structure, Chemical Bonding, and Structural Transformation

CoSn-type intermetallic compounds have emerged as a model platform for Kagome-derived flat-band physics, where subtle chemical perturbations can strongly influence electronic structure and phase stability. Here, we present a combined experimental and theoretical study of Sb-substitution in CoSn-type NiIn1–xSbx (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.17) to elucidate the interplay between site selectivity, solubility limit, chemical bonding, and electronic structure. Rietveld refinements on Neutron powder diffraction data confirmed the selective Sb-substitution at the electron-rich In2 (2d) site forming the honeycomb substructure, while the In1 (1a) site within the Kagome layer remains exclusively occupied by In. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that pristine CoSn-type NiIn hosts Ni 3d-dominated flat bands near the Fermi level (EF), originating from the Kagome-like Ni substructure. Partial replacement of In by Sb within the honeycomb layer alters these flat-band features below EF, reducing the density of states and suppressing the flat-band topology near the Fermi level. Orbital-resolved electronic structure and chemical-bonding analyses show that Sb-substitution enhances Ni-p-block (In/Sb) covalency and optimizes charge compensation, stabilizing the CoSn-type structure up to the solubility limit x ≈ 0.17. Beyond the limit, the higher-Sb compositions show satellite reflections consistent with an incommensurately modulated phase. These results establish a link between site-selective chemical substitution, bonding optimization, and flat-band electronic structure evolution, providing fundamental insights into how chemical substitution influences the electronic properties of Kagome-based intermetallic compounds.

Exciton-vibrational dynamics induces efficient self-trapping in a substituted nanoring

Cycloparaphenylenes, being the smallest segments of carbon nanotubes, have emerged as prototypes of the simplest carbon nanohoops. Their unique structure–dynamics–optical properties relationships have motivated a wide variety of synthesis of new related nanohoop species. Studies of how chemical changes, introduced in these new materials, lead to systems with new structural, dynamics and optical properties, expand their functionalities for optoelectronics applications. Herein, we study the effect that conjugation extension of a cycloparaphenylene through the introduction of a satellite tetraphenyl substitution has on its structural and dynamical properties. Our non-adiabatic excited state molecular dynamics simulations suggest that this substitution accelerates the electronic relaxation from the high-energy band to the lowest excited state. This is partially due to efficient conjugation achieved between specific phenyl units as introduced by the tetraphenyl substitution. We observe a particular exciton redistribution during relaxation, in which the tetraphenyl substitution plays a significant role. As a result, an efficient inter-band energy transfer takes place. Besides, the observed phonon-exciton interplay induces a significant exciton self-trapping. Finally, our results encourage and guide the future studies of new phenyl substitutions in carbon nanorings with desired optoelectronic properties.

Effect of atom substitutions on the magnetic properties in Ce 2 Fe 17 : Toward permanent magnet applications

Due to the rapidly developing technologies and huge market demand, there has been increasing interest internationally in exploring permanent magnet formulations in addition to the well-known Nd 2 Fe 14 B and SmCo 5 /Sm 2 Co 17 . Given Fe's low materials cost and generally high magnetization, Fe-rich rare earth binaries such as Ce 2 Fe 17 comprise a rich “hunting ground” for such new materials. While this compound suffers from a low ordering point and is a heli magnet, these difficulties are easily remedied by the substitution of appropriate amounts of cobalt for Fe, with room-temperature saturation magnetization as high as 1.5 T. In this work, we try to switch the all-important magnetic anisotropy from planar to uniaxial behavior in Ce 2 Fe 17 via 18 h - and 6 c -type atom substitutions with Si, Ir, and numerous other atoms. The uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy is successfully achieved in the 6 c -site-substituted Ce 2 Fe 15 Ir 2 systems, along with large magnetization. We find that iridium substitution, in particular, induces a substantial uniaxial anisotropy of 11.25 MJ/m 3 , which is comparable to most of the current rare earth permanent magnets. Although the iridium substitution is costly, the finding of Ir-triggered uniaxial magnetic anisotropy indicates the potential of Ce–Fe-based alloys for permanent magnets.

Tuning effect of vanadium substitution on the structural and electronic properties of potassium hollandite surfaces

Metal oxide surfaces possess unique properties that are crucial for a wide variety of applications. Herein, density functional theory calculations are performed to study surfaces of potassium hollandite, KMn 8 O 16 , a promising cathode material for electrochemical energy storage, and the vanadium-substituted analog KMn 7 VO 16 . The results show that there is a clear increase in the stability of KMn 8 O 16 with (001) < (110) < (100) or (010), apt to adopt an elongated rod-like morphology. The vanadium (V)-substitution lowers the crystal symmetry and prefers to occupy the surface sites, resulting in electron redistribution and selective tuning of surface energy depending on the surface structures. In particular, the higher stability of substituted V 4+ compared with Mn 4+ ions leads to stabilization of the (001) surface due to the direct interaction of reduced Mn δ+ ions on the surface, while such tuning effect decreases with the increase in surface stability, (110) > (100) and (010). As a result, the KMnO 16 rod is shortened upon V-substitution as observed experimentally, effectively facilitating the ion transport during discharge. The V substituents also introduce stabilization to the defect surfaces resulting from Mn 2+ dissolution during cycling, thereby hindering further structural decay. In conclusion, our study demonstrates the potential tuning effect of V-substitution to promote the ion transport and mitigate the capacity degradation of α-MnO 2 -based materials.

Inducing Fe moment in LaFeSi with p-block element substitution

We studied the LaFeSi phase using density functional theory based full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. Specifically we examined the effect of p-element substitution on the stability and magnetic properties focusing on pathways to induce Fe magnetic moments. We demonstrate that either partial or complete substitutions at the Si 2 c-site by several p-block elements lead to non-zero Fe moments. Our theoretical study shows that partially substituted LaFeSi 1-y Ga y and LaFeSi 1-y Al y are more thermodynamically stable than the fully substituted LaFeGa and LaFeAl. We also found that the P substitutions, either partial or complete, have the most negative formation energies, however the compounds containing phosphorus are non-magnetic. Our work highlights a pathway toward manipulations of the otherwise quenched Fe-moments in LaFeSi-related compounds and help in advancing the potential magnetic functionalities of LaFeX compounds.
