This work presents a method for synthesis of high-yield, uniform and band gap tunable Zn2SnO4 nanocubes. These nanocubes can be further self-assembled into a series of novel nanofilms with tunable optical band gaps from 3.54 to 3.18 eV by simply increasing the heat treatment temperature. The Zn2SnO4 nanocube-nanofilm…

We use density functional theory to investigate the reaction between reduced CeO 2– x (111) and water. H 2 O dissociation to hydroxyl is facile on surface vacancies and lattice oxygen, while subsequent decomposition of hydroxyl into H 2 has a high barrier, which results in reversible adsorption of H 2 O under ultra-hi…

We predict that a lateral electrical current in antiferromagnets can induce non-equilibrium Néel order fields, i.e. fields whose sign alternates between the spin sublattices, which can trigger ultra-fast spin-axis reorientation. Based on microscopic transport theory calculations we identify staggered current-induced f…
