Application of anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with ceria based electrolyte has often been limited by high cost of electrolyte film fabrication and high electrode polarization. In this study, dense Gd0.1Ce0.9O2 (GDC) thin film electrolytes have been fabricated on hierarchically oriented macroporous NiO-GD…
A 100-nm-thick L21-ordered full-Heusler Co2FeSi (CFS) alloy film was fabricated using the facing targets sputtering (FTS) method at a substrate temperature TS of 300 °C. The degrees of L21- and B2-order for the film were 37% and 96%, respectively. In addition, full-Heusler CFS alloy thin films with perpendicular magne…
A group theoretical discussion on the hypercubic lattice described by the affine Coxeter-Weyl group Wa(Bn) has been presented. When the lattice is projected onto the Coxeter plane it is noted that the maximal dihedral subgroup Dh of W(Bn) with h = 2n representing the Coxeter number describes the h-fold symmetric quasi…
The electronic structure of doped Mn in (Ga,Mn)As is studied by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. From configuration-interaction cluster-model calculations, the line shapes of the Mn L3 resonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectra can be explained by d-d excitations from the Mn ground state dominated by charge-trans…
We present an ab initio calculation of the k and spin-resolved electronic lifetimes in the half-metallic Heusler compounds Co(2)MnSi and Co(2)FeSi. We determine the spin-flip and spin-conserving contributions to the lifetimes and study in detail the behavior of the lifetimes around states that are strongly spin-mixed…
The primary purpose of this investigation is to determine the effective coherent extent of the neutron wave packet transverse to its mean propagation vector k, when it is prepared in a typical instrument used to study the structure of materials in thin film form via specular reflection. There are two principal reasons…
We develop a self-consistent relativistic disordered local moment (RDLM) scheme aimed at describing finite temperature magnetism of itinerant metals from first principles. Our implementation in terms of the Korringa--Kohn--Rostoker multiple scattering theory and the coherent potential approximation allows to relate th…
We analytically calculate the intrinsic longitudinal and transverse optical conductivities of electronic systems which govern by a modified Dirac fermion model Hamiltonian for materials beyond graphene such as monolayer ${\text{MoS}}_{2}$ and ultrathin film of the topological insulator. We analyze the effect of a topo…
When the sulfur element is hyperdoped into crystalline silicon to a supersaturated density of 1020 cm-3, it can enhance the sub-bandgap light absorption of silicon from 0 to 70%, with the antireflection of surface dome structures. On the other hand, the local Si: S configuration that can contribute to the strong sub-b…
A new type of plasmarons formed by the compound of photoelectrons and acoustic surface plasmon excitations is investigated in the system p(2x2)-K/Graphite. The physics behind these types of plasmarons, e-plasmarons, is different from the ones recently found in graphene where the loss feature is argued to result from t…
Literature values for the energy gap of long one-dimensional carbon chains vary from as little as 0.2 eV to more than 4 eV. To resolve this discrepancy, we use the GW many-body approach to calculate the band gap E(g) of an infinite carbon chain. We also compute the energy dependence of the attenuation coefficient β go…
A series of Cerium based heavy fermion materials is studied using a combination of local density functional theory and many-body Gutzwiller approximation. Computed orbial dependent electronic mass enhancements parameters are compared with available data extracted from measured values of the Sommerfeld coefficient. The…
Thiolato-protected gold nanoclusters have acquired wide applications; however, on the fundamental science end there is still a lack of deep understanding of their high stability. Recent success in transforming the highly robust biicosahedral Au38(SCH2CH2Ph)24 nanocluster into an extremely stable tetrahedral Au36(SPh-(…
Water remediation has been a critical issue over the past decades due to the expansion of wastewater discharge to the environment. Currently, a variety of functional materials have been successfully prepared for water remediation applications. Among them, graphene is an attractive candidate due to its high specific su…
General synthetic methods for the grafting of peptide chains onto polyoxometalate clusters by the use of general activated precursors have been developed. Using a solution-phase approach, pre-synthesized peptides can be grafted to a metal oxide cluster to produce hybrids of unprecedented scale (up to 30 residues). An…
Docetaxel (DCX) is a second generation taxane. It is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of various types of cancer, including breast, non-small cell lung, and head and neck cancers. However, side effects, including those related to Tween 80, an excipient in current DCX formulations, ca…
Epitaxial ${\mathrm{La}}_{1.85}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.15}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}/{\mathrm{La}}_{2/3}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{1/3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ (LSCO/LCMO) superlattices on $(001)$-oriented ${\mathrm{LaSrAlO}}_{4}$ substrates have been grown with pulsed laser deposition technique. Their structural, magnetic, and superconducting prope…
The Skyrme-particle, the $skyrmion$, was introduced over half a century ago and used to construct field theories for dense nuclear matter. But with skyrmions being mathematical objects - special types of topological solitons - they can emerge in much broader contexts. Recently skyrmions were observed in helimagnets, f…
The bulk band structure of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ has been determined by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and compared to first-principles calculations. We have performed calculations using the local density approximation (LDA) of density functional theory and the one-shot $GW$ approximation within the all-electron ful…
Topological insulators, in contrast to ordinary semiconductors, accompany protected metallic surfaces described by Dirac-type fermions. Here, we theoretically show another emergent two-dimensional metal embedded in the bulk insulator is realized at a magnetic domain wall. The domain wall has long been studied as ingre…
