Unraveling the structural dependency of Weyl nodes in Co 2 MnGa

Conventionally, the modulation of the intrinsic Weyl nodes in Weyl semimetals is challenging, due to topological protection. Here we report the structural dependence of the Weyl nodes in a Co2⁢MnGa Heusler thin film via a temperature-dependent tetragonal distortion. The ability to manipulate these Weyl nodes allows for the control of the intrinsic electromagnetic properties. Temperature-dependent x-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements identify a compressive tetragonal distortion with decreasing temperature from 300 to 20 K. The calculated Weyl properties can be directly compared with experimental parameters through the temperature-dependent XRD measurements which show the intrinsic correlation between Weyl properties and important magnetic parameters. Further, the microscopic momentum space properties of Weyl nodes such as the distance (d W ), solid angle (Ω W ), tilt (φ W ), and nodal point energy (E W ) directly affect the macroscopic observable properties such as exchange stiffness (A), magnetization (M), and effective anisotropy field $H^{eff}_{K}$, as shown via structure-dependent density functional theory calculations. These predictions are experimentally observed as large variations in the bulk magnetization and effective anisotropy field as a function of temperature. These results highlight a unique degree of freedom in the control of macroscopic magnetic properties via the modulation of the intrinsic properties of Weyl nodes through structural distortions.

Computational descriptor for electrochemical currents of carbon dioxide reduction on Cu facets

Computation screening is crucial for designing efficient electrochemical catalysts for carbon dioxide (CO 2 R) reduction that produce valuable hydrocarbons and oxygenates. In this work, leveraging density functional theory calculations for the CO adsorption energy ΔE CO on seventeen Cu terminations, we discover a strong linear correlation between ΔE CO and the experimentally measured CO 2 R electrochemical currents (ACS Catal. 2022, 12, 11, 6578–6588). Examining ab initio thermodynamics of early critical intermediates CO*, COH*, and CHO*, we find that CO* → CHO* is the thermodynamically controlling step. Beyond the general CO adsorption energy that only shows a linear trend with CO 2 R activity, we show that the reaction free energy of CO* → CHO* is the descriptor for the overall CO 2 R activity for Cu facets, as it displays a volcano relationship with the experimental current. Importantly, we show that high step and kink density of the Cu terminations not only enhances CO adsorption strength but also modulates the CO* → CHO* pathway, as respectively exemplified in the (941) and (741) facets. In addition, we explain that the high activity of (741) is due to its relatively low hydrogen evolution reaction activity compared with the other Cu surfaces.

First-principles simulation of a shocked H-He mixture along the principal Hugoniot

Recent laser-shock experiments on an H–He mixture containing 11% helium (atomic fraction) have suggested the presence of an immiscibility region inside Jupiter. Reflectivity measurements were used as the primary diagnostic of H–He demixing, with discontinuities in the optical reflectivity proposed as a signature of phase separation under conditions relevant to Jupiter's interior. Here, we investigate shock-compressed H–He using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations with optical properties evaluated within the Kubo–Greenwood formalism. The equation of state and ionic configurations were obtained using the thermal Tr 2 SCANL meta-GGA exchange–correlation (XC) functional, while optical properties were computed using the recently developed RS-KDT0 range-separated thermal hybrid XC, which provides state-of-the-art accuracy for band-gap predictions in the warm dense matter regime. The calculated reflectivity shows overall good agreement with experimental measurements; however, no discontinuity is observed at elevated temperatures. Moreover, the reflectivity predictions for the mixed system are consistent with the experimental measurements in the temperature range where the mixture is inferred to be demixed. Furthermore, these results suggest that reflectivity alone may not provide a unique or sensitive diagnostic of H–He demixing at low helium concentrations under these conditions.

Spin-Charge-Lattice Coupling across the Charge Density Wave Transition in a Kagome Lattice Antiferromagnet

Understanding spin and lattice excitations in a metallic magnetic ordered system forms the basis to unveil the magnetic and lattice exchange couplings and their interactions with itinerant electrons. Kagome lattice antiferromagnet FeGe is interesting because it displays a rare charge density wave (CDW) deep inside the antiferromagnetic ordered phase that interacts with the magnetic order. Here, we use neutron scattering to study the evolution of spin and lattice excitations across the CDW transition 𝑇 CDW in FeGe. While spin excitations below ∼100 meV can be well described by spin waves of a spin-1 Heisenberg Hamiltonian, spin excitations at higher energies are centered around the Brillouin zone boundary and extend up to ∼180 meV consistent with quasiparticle excitations across spin-polarized electron-hole Fermi surfaces. Furthermore, 𝑐-axis spin wave dispersion and Fe-Ge optical phonon modes show a clear hardening below 𝑇 CDW due to spin-charge-lattice coupling but with no evidence of a phonon Kohn anomaly. By comparing our experimental results with density functional theory calculations in absolute units, we conclude that FeGe is a Hund’s metal in the intermediate correlated regime where magnetism has contributions from both itinerant and localized electrons arising from spin polarized electronic bands near the Fermi level.

Descriptors for Cu facets for CO2 reduction reaction activity

Computation screening is crucial for designing efficient electrochemical catalysts for carbon dioxide (CO2R) reduction to valuable hydrocarbons and oxygenates. Herein, leveraging density functional theory calculations of the CO adsorption energy ΔE_CO on seventeen Cu terminations, we discover a strong linear correlation between ΔE_CO and the recently experimentally measured CO2R electrochemical currents (ACS Catal. 2022, 12, 11, 6578–6588). Examining the ab initio thermodynamics of the early critical intermediates CO*, COH*, and CHO*, we find that CO* → CHO* is the thermodynamically preferred step, and notably shows a volcano trend with the experimental currents where the maximum CO2R current corresponds to the moderate CHO* formation energy. Importantly, we show that increasing the step and kink density of the Cu termination not only enhances CO adsorption strength but also modulates the CO* → CHO* pathway, as respectively exemplified in the (941) and (741) facets. We also explain why (741) is exceptional with high CO2R activity as measured experimentally due to its relatively low activity toward the hydrogen evolution reaction compared with the other Cu surfaces. Beyond the general CO adsorption energy that only shows a linear trend with CO2R activity, we show that the reaction CO* → CHO* free energy is a descriptor that displays a volcano relationship with the overall CO2R activity on Cu facets.

Block Mott insulating state induced by next-nearest-neighbor hopping in the S = 3 2 zigzag chain BaCoTe 2 O 7

Quasi-one-dimensional correlated electronic multiorbital systems with either ladder or chain geometries continue attracting considerable interest due to their complex electronic phases arising from the interplay of the hopping matrix, the crystal-field splitting, the electronic correlations (Hubbard repulsion U and Hund coupling J H ), and strong quantum fluctuations. Recently, the intriguing cobalt zigzag chain system BaCoTe 2 ⁢ O 7 , with electronic density n=7, was prepared experimentally. Here, we systematically study the electronic and magnetic properties of this quasi-one-dimensional compound from the theoretical perspective. Based on first-principles density functional theory calculations, strongly anisotropic one-dimensional electronic Co 3⁢d bands were found near the Fermi level. By evaluating the relevant hopping amplitudes, we provide the magnitude and origin of the nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) hopping matrices in BaCoTe 2 ⁢ O 7 . With this information, we constructed a three-orbital electronic Hubbard model for this zigzag chain system, and studied two cases: with only a NN hopping matrix, and with NN plus NNN hopping matrices. Introducing the Hubbard and Hund couplings and studying the model via the density matrix renormalization group method, we constructed the ground-state phase diagram. A robust staggered ↑ - ↓ - ↑ - ↓ antiferromagnetic (AFM) region was found when only the NN hopping matrix in the chain direction was employed. However, for the realistic case where the NNN hopping matrix is also included, the dominant state becomes instead a block AFM ↑ - ↑ - ↓ - ↓ order, in agreement with experiments. The system displays Mott insulator characteristics with three half-filled orbitals, when the block AFM order is stable. In conclusion, our results for BaCoTe 2 ⁢O 7 provide guidance to experimentalists and theorists working on this zigzag one-dimensional chain and related materials.

Cr is not an acceptor in 𝛽⁢−G⁢a 2 ⁢O 3

The intensity of red C⁢r 3+ photoluminescence (PL) in monoclinic gallium oxide (𝛽⁢−G⁢a 2 ⁢O 3 ) is suppressed by 𝑛-type conductivity, an effect that has been attributed to a Cr deep acceptor level in the bandgap. In 𝑛-type material, such an acceptor level would be occupied, resulting in the C⁢r 2+ oxidation state and the absence of C⁢r 3+ PL. To test this model, 𝑛-type 𝛽⁢−G⁢a 2 ⁢O 3 crystals co-doped with Cr and Zr (a donor) were grown from the melt. The samples show C⁢r 3+ optical absorption bands and a high free-electron concentration of 4 × 10 18 c⁢m −3 . If Cr were an acceptor, then it would be fully compensated and therefore would not exhibit the C⁢r 3+ optical signature. Hybrid functional calculations indicate that Cr occupies the substitutional octahedral Ga(II) site and that the C⁢r 2+ state is energetically unfavorable, i.e., Cr is not an acceptor. Weak C⁢r 3+ PL was observed in the Cr/Zr co-doped samples. In conclusion, the quenching of PL may be caused by a transfer of energy to free electrons, a nonradiative process that would reduce the emission intensity.

Electronic transport, thermal transport, thermal expansion, and magnetization in the strongly correlated metal LaNi⁢O 3

Perovskite structured LaNiO 3 is a strongly correlated metal with intriguing thermal and magnetic properties. The volume dependence of calculated and measured physical properties can add additional critical information to develop a more in-depth understanding of this strongly correlated phenomenon. Taking advantage of recent single crystal LaNiO 3 growth using the floating-zone method, we have measured the thermal expansion, the magnetostriction, and the pressure dependence of the magnetic susceptibility, which then allows derivation of the Grüneisen parameters γ e = $\frac{dlnN(E_F)}{d lnV}$, γ χ = $\frac{dlnχ}{d lnV}$, as well as of electric and thermal transport properties. We simulate the volume dependence of structural and magnetic properties using Density Functional Theory calculations at the Generalized Gradient Approximation level. A large discrepancy between experimental values and calculated ones suggests that strong correlations are likely to be dynamic in nature. This study also provides a side-by-side comparison of measurements in single crystal and polycrystalline samples of LaNiO 3 to elucidate intrinsic materials properties. A broad hump at high temperatures in the temperature dependence of magnetization found in the single crystal sample of LaNiO 3 has been rationalized by a model that includes the influence of electron correlations on the Landau diamagnetism.

High-throughput dataset of impurity adsorption on common catalysts in biomass upgrading applications

Abstract An extensive dataset consisting of adsorption energies of pernicious impurities present in biomass upgrading processes on common catalysts and support materials has been generated. This work aims to inform catalyst and process development for the conversion of biomass-derived feedstocks to fuels and chemicals. A high-throughput workflow was developed to execute density functional theory calculations for a diverse set of atomic (Al, B, Ca, Cl, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, N, Na, P, S, Si, Zn) and molecular (COS, H 2 S, HCl, HCN, K 2 O, KCl, NH 3 ) species on 35 unique surfaces for transition-metal (Ag, Au, Co, Cu, Fe, Ir, Ni, Pd, Pt, Re, Rh, Ru) and metal-oxide (Al 2 O 3 , MgO, anatase-TiO 2 , rutile-TiO 2 , ZnO, ZrO 2 ) catalysts and supports. Approximately 3,000 unique adsorption geometries and corresponding adsorption energies were obtained.

Tension-compression asymmetry in superelasticity of SrNi 2 P 2 single crystals and the influence of low temperatures

ThCr 2 Si 2 -type intermetallic compounds are known to exhibit superelasticity associated with structural transitions through lattice collapse and expansion. These transitions occur via the formation and breaking of Si-type bonds, respectively, under uniaxial loading along the [0 0 1] direction. Unlike most ThCr 2 Si 2 -type intermetallic compounds, which have either an uncollapsed tetragonal structure or a collapsed tetragonal structure, SrNi 2 P 2 possesses a third type of collapsed structured: a one-third orthorhombic structure, for which one expects the occurrence of unique structural transitions and superelastic behavior. In this study, uniaxial compression and tension tests were conducted on micron-sized SrNi 2 P 2 single crystalline columns at room temperature, 200 K, and 100 K, to investigate the influence of loading direction and temperature on the superelasticity of SrNi 2 P 2 . Experimental data and density functional theory calculations revealed the presence of tension-compression asymmetry in the structural transitions and superelasticity, as well as an asymmetry in their temperature dependence, due to the opposite superelastic process associated with compression (forming P-P bonds) and tension (breaking P-P bonds). Additionally, following thermodynamics, the observations suggest that this asymmetric superelasticity could lead to an opposite elastocaloric effect between compression and tension, which could be beneficial potentially in obtaining large temperature changes compared to conventional superelastic solids that show the same elastocaloric effect regardless of loading direction. Furthermore, these results provide an important fundamental insight into the structural transitions, superelasticity processes, and potential elastocaloric effects in SrNi 2 P 2 .

Growth of Low-Defect WSe 2 Film via High-Purity van der Waals Crystal Precursor

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit exceptional electrical and optical properties, empowering their promising prospects for future nanoelectronics. Despite major advances in n-type 2D semiconductors, the field has yet to synthesize high-mobility p-type 2D TMDs, in particular WSe 2 , and systematically query the influence of defects. In this study, we unveil the pivotal role of substitutional impurity defects vis-à-vis the precursor used and growth method employed in defining the quality of 2D p-type WSe 2 . Density functional theory calculations suggest the adverse effect of Fe-, Co-, Ni- and Si-substituted W impurity defects on the mobility of WSe 2 , whereas defects such as O-, S-substituted Se and Mo-substituted W pose negligible impact. Guided by the theory, we pinpoint van der Waals (vdW) crystals, commonly used in mechanical exfoliation, as the optimal precursor, and develop a facile vdW crystal physical vapor deposition (PVD) method to grow high-purity monolayer 2D WSe 2 film (VPVD-WSe 2 ) that is continuous across a centimeter scale. A suite of spectroscopies confirms the markedly reduced defect density of the as-synthesized WSe 2 compared to those by typical chemical vapor deposition methods, and by PVD with commercial or hydrothermal precursors. Scanning tunneling microscopy further evidence the ultralow substitutional impurity defect density of VPVD-WSe 2 , greatly outperforming the control samples and approaching the mechanically exfoliated counterparts. The VPVD-WSe 2 based field-effect transistors exhibit notable electrical performance with record-high field-effect hole mobility up to 112 cm 2 V –1 s –1 at room temperature, exceeding the best-reported monolayer WSe 2 synthesized by chemical vapor deposition and rivaling the mechanically exfoliated 2D WSe 2 flakes.

Synthesis and Polymorph Manipulation of FeSe 2 Monolayers

Polymorph engineering involves the manipulation of material properties through controlled structural modification and is a candidate technique for creating unique two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) nanodevices. Despite its promise, polymorph engineering of magnetic TMDC monolayers has not yet been demonstrated. Here we grow FeSe 2 monolayers via molecular beam epitaxy and find that they have great promise for magnetic polymorph engineering. Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS), we find that FeSe 2 monolayers predominantly display a 1T' structural polymorph at 5 K. Application of voltage pulses from an STM tip causes a local, reversible transition from the 1T' phase to the 1T phase. Density functional theory calculations suggest that this single-layer structural phase transition is accompanied by a magnetic transition from an antiferromagnetic to a ferromagnetic configuration. In conclusion, these results open new possibilities for creating functional magnetic devices with TMDC monolayers via polymorph engineering.

Disentangling Acid‐Base Chemistry through Blue Shifting Hydrogen Bond Contributions

The blue shifting of vibrational frequencies in hydrogen bonded molecules, as observed in aqueous environments, has been attributed to local partial charge transfer from solvation. Here, in this study, we extrapolate the blue shift model to the stronger ionic interactions between hydrogen bond acceptors associated with protonation through augmented pH levels and competitive interactions with counter ion pairing. The chemical model we utilize in this work is the aqueous pyridine‐pyridinium equilibrium to characterize the blue shifts observed in the pyridinium chloride ionic system. The observed agreement between observed experimental and calculated spectral shifts shows that the blue shifting model can be extrapolated to stronger interactions and accurately describe the nature of the hydrogen bond.

Characterizing the nonequilibrium response of FeRh thin films using time-domain thermoreflectance

Time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) characterization of FeRh throughout its first-order antiferromagnetic (AF) to ferromagnetic (FM) transition shows that the transient reflectance ΔR⁡(t)/R strongly depends on the magnetic order of the sample. Using TDTR, which uses optical pulses to induce small temperature excursions, we have found that Δ⁢R⁡(t)/R of the AF phase exhibits a large negative response, while the response of the FM phase is positive. This magnetic phase sensitivity has allowed us to study the transient response of both the AF and FM phases to the pump-pulse excitation and the mixed phase of the material. These results are significant since the ultrafast properties of antiferromagnetic materials and mixed antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic materials are difficult to detect using other conventional techniques. We have found that the AF phase exhibits a strong subpicosecond decaying signal not observed in the FM phase. The magnetic phase dependence of the sign of Δ⁢R⁡(t)/R is qualitatively explained using the results of ab initio density functional theory calculations. Using the two-temperature model, we found that the change in the thermalization time across the transition is caused by differences in both the electronic heat capacity and the electron-phonon coupling factor of the AF and FM phases. The electron-phonon coupling constant in the AF phase is also determined using the two-temperature model conducted using the ntmpy code package. For the FM phase, we provide boundaries for the magnitude of the electron-phonon coupling factor for the FM phase. Finally, these results indicate that TDTR can be used to study the transient properties of magnetic materials that are otherwise challenging to probe.

Nernst power factor and figure of merit in the compensated semimetal ScSb

Recently, topological semimetals have emerged as strong candidates for solid-state thermomagnetic refrigerators due to their enhanced Nernst effect. This enhancement arises from the combined contributions of the Berry-curvature-induced anomalous Nernst coefficient associated with topological bands and the normal Nernst effect resulting from synergistic electron-hole compensation. Generally, these two effects are intertwined in topological semimetals, making it challenging to evaluate them independently. Here, we report the observation of a high Nernst effect in the electron-hole compensated semimetal ScSb with topologically trivial electronic band structures. Remarkably, we find a high maximum Nernst power factor of 𝑃⁢𝐹 𝑁 ∼ 35 × 10 −4 W m −1 K −2 in ScSb. The Nernst thermopower (𝑆 𝑥⁢𝑦 ) exhibits a peak of ∼ 47 µ⁢V/K at 12 K and 14 T, yielding a Nernst figure of merit (𝑧 𝑁 ) of ∼ 28 × 10 −4 K −1 . Notably, despite its trivial electronic band structure, both the 𝑃⁢𝐹 𝑁 and 𝑧 𝑁 values of ScSb are comparable to those observed in topological semimetals with Dirac band dispersions. In conclusion, the origin of the large Nernst signal in ScSb is explained by compensated electron and hole carriers, through Hall resistivity measurements, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations.

Topotactic Reduction‐Driven Crystal Field Excitations in Brownmillerite Manganite Thin Films

Topotactic reduction of perovskite oxides offers a powerful approach for discovering novel phenomena, such as superconducting infinite-layer nickelates and polar metallicity, and is commonly accompanied by the emergence of multiple valence states and/or complex crystal fields of transition metals. However, understanding the complex interplay between crystal chemistry, electronic structure, and physical properties at the spin- and orbital-resolved levels in these reduced systems remains elusive. Here, in this study, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS), and density functional theory calculations are used to uncover topotactic metal-insulator transition and orbital-specific crystal field excitations in brownmillerite La 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 2.5 thin films. The Mn valence states are found to be Mn 2+ /Mn 3+ , along with their corresponding populations at octahedral and tetrahedral sites, which effectively weaken the Mn-O hybridization compared to the parent perovskite phase. As a result, La 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 2.5 films exhibit an antiferromagnetic insulating ground state. Moreover, by combining the RIXS measurements on selected single-valence manganites, specifically MnO, LaMnO 3 , and CaMnO 3 , with orbital- and spin-resolved density-of-states calculations, the study identifies the dd excitations of octahedrally and tetrahedrally coordinated Mn 2+ /Mn 3+ ions, directly linking the microscopic electronic structure to the macroscopic magnetic/electrical properties.

Design of biphenylene-derived tunable dirac materials

The exploration of carbon allotropes has unveiled a series of two-dimensional (2D) materials with unique electronic and mechanical properties, yet the need for stable structures with tailored electronic properties persists. Here, in this study, we introduce a new class of 2D carbon allotropes derived from the biphenylene network (BPN), incorporating acetylenic linkages to tune their structural and electronic characteristics. Through density functional theory calculations, we identified ten novel BPN-derived structures that exhibit both energetic and dynamic stability, confirmed by cohesive energy and phonon spectrum analyses. Among them, BPN-02 and BPN04 are metallic, featuring critically-tilted type-III Dirac cones under ~ 5 % biaxial strain, while BPN-22 is a semiconductor with a band gap of 0.95 eV and exhibits highly anisotropic carrier mobility. Additionally, these structures demonstrate significant anisotropy in their elastic properties, further distinguishing them from other 2D carbon materials like graphene. Our findings suggest that these novel BPN-based structures have strong potential for next-generation electronic and optoelectronic applications, providing new avenues for the design and synthesis of advanced carbon materials.

Atomic-scale vacancy engineering unlocks basal-plane catalytic activity in metallic WSe 2 for reversible oxygen electrocatalysis

Two-dimensional metallic transition metal dichalcogenides offer high electrical conductivity and large surface areas for electrocatalysis, yet their inherent basal planes are catalytically inert. Here, we present an atomic-scale vacancy engineering strategy to activate the basal surfaces of metallic WSe 2 for reversible oxygen electrocatalysis. This approach, based on intentionally designed substitutional metal doping, promotes the spontaneous formation of selenium vacancies while preserving the metallic 1 T′ phase, thereby creating highly reactive and oxygen-affinitive sites. Density functional theory calculations reveal that these vacancy-mediated metal complexes dramatically lower the energy barriers for initial oxygen adsorption, enabling dissociative oxygen adsorption. Operando and ex-situ spectroscopic analyses confirm that vacancy-mediated metal complexes transform into dynamic Se/W-oxide intermediates under operating conditions. Se/W-oxides on the surface experimentally and theoretically prove electrocatalytic activity and reversibility. Applying this strategy in lithium–oxygen batteries, the basal-plane activated WSe 2 shows high discharge capacities (9868 mA h g −1 , corresponding to 3947 mA h g$^{-1}_{cathode}$), impressive cycle retention over 550 cycles at 1000 mA h g −1 , and outstanding rate–capability over a wide current–density range (100–3000 mA g −1 ) during 256 cycles.
