Bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) is a topological insulator with potential applications in thermoelectrics, spintronics, and optoelectronics. However, its response to radiation remains poorly understood. We investigate cumulative X-ray damage in Bi2Se3 using simultane- ous transmission X-ray microscopy (T…

In layered materials, spacing and stacking-order extent are usually locked. Here we show that in swollen suspensions of stiff, charged nanosheets they decouple, and that this defines a distinct regime, apart from the crystalline- and Wigner-swelling regimes such systems usually occupy. The mean spa…

Rare-earth van der Waals magnets provide a route to combining strong spin-orbit coupling, large magnetic moments, and reduced dimensionality in bulk crystals. We report a comparative study of the dysprosium oxyhalides DyOX (X = Cl, Br, I), which realize square-bilayer networks of Dy3+ moments separ…

Abstract Coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations of bio- and macromolecular systems offer a method of accessing otherwise unobtainable time and length scales, compared to atomistic simulation techniques. However, a limiting step is often the generation and validation of the coarse-grained mod…

Dense liquids gradually transform into nonequilibrium amorphous solids as they pass through the experimental glass transition. Experimentally, ergodicity is lost because measurements are conducted within a finite time window. More than seventy years ago, Kauzmann posed a fundamental question: If ex…

Many problems in disordered materials require sampling beyond fixed composition and volume, where coupled changes in atomic identities and structure create a prohibitively expensive discrete-continuous sampling problem. Here we introduce JANUS, a multimodal neural sampler that couples continuous an…

Machine-learned exchange--correlation (XC) functionals offer a route to improve Kohn--Sham density-functional theory without incurring the cost of explicitly correlated electronic-structure methods. Their use in production simulation codes, however, requires a well-defined mapping between the learn…

Anti-altermagnets exhibit odd-parity nonrelativistic spin splitting, yet unlike even-parity altermagnets, their momentum-space symmetries lack a reduced classification analogous to spin Laue groups. Here, we introduce anti-spin Laue groups, organized into three distinct classes, and identify 21 gro…

Complex concentrated alloys (CCAs), including high- and medium-entropy alloys, deform in chemically heterogeneous energy landscapes where dislocation glide, solute aging, twinning, phase transformation and microstructural barriers may all contribute.

Quantitative microstructural characterization of Li-ion battery electrode materials using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) has been proven as a critical method for optimizing cell performance. However, the inherently slow nature of EBSD can hinder the throughput of analyses needed for statis…

Weak particle-matrix interfaces play a critical role in the tensile fracture of particle-filled polymer composites, but how they govern progressive debonding, fracture localization, and the resulting changes in macroscopic mechanical properties remains insufficiently understood.

Predicting charge transport in strongly anharmonic materials, particularly ultralow thermal conductors, remains a major challenge for first-principles methods. In such systems, perturbative treatments of electron-phonon interactions and the harmonic phonon picture often break down, necessitating no…
