A theory is developed to describe the coupled transport of energy and charge in networks of electron donor-acceptor sites which are seated in a thermally heterogeneous environment, where the transfer kinetics are dominated by Marcus-type hopping rates. It is found that the coupling of heat and charge transfer in such…

Significance Using neutron powder diffraction measurements on the bulk highest- T c superconductor 154 SmFeAsO 1− x D x , we discovered a new antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase in the electron-overdoped regime, x ≥ 0.56 (AFM2). The magnetic moment on Fe in AFM2 reaches 2.73 μ B /Fe, which is the largest in all the nondoped…
