We show that the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in alpha-MnTe impacts the transport behavior by generating an anisotropic valence-band splitting, resulting in four spin-polarized pockets near Gamma. A minimal k-dot-p model is constructed to capture this splitting by group theory analysis, a tight-binding model and ab initi…
Perovskite oxynitride photocatalysts were reported by experiment to evolve small amounts of N$_2$ due to the self-oxidation of nitrogen ions by photo-generated holes. The N$_2$ evolution rate was observed to decrease with increasing reaction time and was found to be correlated with a decrease in O$_2$ evolution (OER)…
We have employed the generalized Bloch theorem to evaluate the spin stiffness constants of 3$d$ transition metals (bcc-Fe, fcc-Co, and fcc-Ni) within the linear combination of pseudo-atomic orbitals (LCPAO). The spin stiffness constants were obtained by fitting the spin-wave energy curve, which relates to the total en…
Contrasting with its sluggish behavior on standard solids, water is extremely mobile on superhydrophobic materials, as shown, for instance, by the continuous acceleration of drops on tilted water-repellent leaves. For much longer substrates, however, drops reach a terminal velocity that results from a balance between…
Polar perovskite oxide surfaces are subject to structural reconstruction as a possible stabilisation mechanisms, which changes the surface structure and hence the surface chemistry. To investigate this effect, we study the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on the reconstructed (001) surface of NaTaO$_3$, by means of den…
, respectively. Combining concepts from topological physics with the dependence of the SHE on the spin Berry curvature (SBC) of the electronic bands, we propose a simple strategy to rapidly search for materials with large intrinsic SHEs based on the following ideas: High symmetry combined with heavy atoms gives rise t…
Strong room-temperature grain coarsening in gold films on polyimide induced by cyclic uniaxial mechanical strain is demonstrated. Detailed electron backscatter diffraction analysis revealed that, in contrast to the predictions of shear-coupled grain boundary migration model, the grain coarsening is isotropic and coars…
Despite the large number of experiments demonstrating that grains in a metallic material can grow at room temperature due to applied mechanical load, the mechanisms and the driving forces responsible for mechanically induced grain coarsening are still not understood. Here we present a systematic study of room temperat…
A series of pentanuclear heterometallic coordination compounds of the general formula (Bu 4 N) 5 [Ln{Os(NO)($μ$-ox)-Cl 3 } 4 (H 2 O) n ] [Ln = Y (for 2) and Dy (for 3) when n = 0; Ln = Dy (for 3), Tb (for 4), and Gd (for 5) when n = 1] were synthesized by the reaction of the precursor (Bu 4 N) 2 [Os(NO)(ox)-Cl 3 ] (1)…
The intrinsic spin Hall effect (SHE) originates from the topology of the Bloch bands in momentum space. The duality between real space and momentum space calls for a spin Hall effect induced from a real space topology in analogy to the topological Hall effect (THE) of skyrmions. We theoretically demonstrate the topolo…
Materials combining both a high refractive index and a wide band gap are of great interest for optoelectronic and sensor applications. However, these two properties are typically described by an inverse correlation with high refractive index appearing in small gap materials and vice versa. Here, we conduct a first-pri…
dc-magnetization data measured down to 40 mK speak against conventional freezing and reinstate YbMgGaO_{4} as a triangular spin-liquid candidate. Magnetic susceptibility measured parallel and perpendicular to the c axis reaches constant values below 0.1 and 0.2 K, respectively, thus indicating the presence of gapless…
In this work, we investigated the behaviour of Sb dopants in $Na_{x}CoO_{2}$ for Na concentrations of $x = 0.75, 0.875$ and $1.00$ by density functional theory. We chose $Na_{x}CoO_{2}$ with higher Na concentration of $x > 0.75$ because it has excessively higher thermo-power thus it is appealing for practical applicat…
Until now, materials with high elasticity at deep cryogenic temperatures have not been observed. Previous reports indicated that graphene and carbon nanotube-based porous materials can exhibit reversible mechano-elastic behavior from liquid nitrogen temperature up to nearly a thousand degrees Celsius. Here, we report…
In this study, via a simple one-step method, chiral copper sulfide quantum dots (d/l-QDs) were prepared using d-/l-penicillamine (d-/l-Pen). The anisotropy factor of d/l-QDs was as high as 0.01. The d/l-QDs can be used as photocatalysts to cleave proteins. Notably, the l-QDs displayed the highest catalytic performance…
Abstract The lack of progress to obtain commercially available large‐scale production of continuous carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers has provided the motivation for researchers to develop high‐performance bulk CNT assemblies that could more effectively transfer the superb mechanical, electrical, and other excellent proper…
3D-printing (or additive manufacturing) is presently an emerging technology that promises to reshape traditional manufacturing processes. The electrochemistry field can certainly take advantage of this fabrication tool for sensing and energy-related applications. Polymer/graphene filaments commonly used for the fabric…
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate gadopiclenol, a newly developed extracellular nonspecific macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) having high relaxivity properties, which was designed to increase lesion detection and characterization by magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS: We described the molecular struct…
Abstract Presented are the theoretical calculation and experimental studies of a Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene‐based nanohybrid with simultaneous Nb doping and surface transition metal alloy modification. Guided by the density functional theory calculation, the Nb doping can move up the Fermi energy level to the conduction band,…

A representative example is core/shell heterostructures, in which charge carriers are effect…
