Quasi-two-dimensional superconductors with a sufficiently weak interlayer coupling allow magnetic flux to penetrate in the form of Josephson vortices for in-plane applied magnetic fields. A consequence is the dominance of the Zeeman interaction over orbital effects. In the clean limit, the normal state is favored over…

CdSe/CdS core/crown nanoplatelet type I heterostructures are a class of two-dimensional materials with atomically precise thickness and many potential optoelectronic applications. It remains unclear how the precise thickness and lack of energy disorder affect the properties of exciton transport in these materials. By…

Semiconducting 2D materials, like transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), have gained much attention for their potential in opto-electronic devices, valleytronic schemes, and semi-conducting to metallic phase engineering. However, like graphene and other atomically thin materials, they lose key properties when placed…

The vibrational properties of model amorphous materials are studied by combining complete analysis of the vibration modes, dynamical structure factor, and energy diffusivity with exact diagonalization of the dynamical matrix and the kernel polynomial method, which allows a study of very large system sizes. Different m…

Blue phosphorus is a new graphene-like material which has already been proven thermostable in theory, and the synthesis of it on experiment can also be expected. Here, we have investigated the electronic structures and carrier mobilities of armchair and zigzag monolayer blue phosphorus nanoribbons (PNRs) and nanotubes…

Recent experimental works reported observation of the ω structure in steel. Here, stability of the ω structure in steel is investigated based on first-principles with special interests in effects of interstitial C atoms. The interstitial C atoms increase the energy of the ω structure compared with the ferromagnetic (F…

Phase-change materials based on Ge-Sb-Te alloys are widely used in industrial applications such as nonvolatile memories, but reaction pathways for crystalline-to-amorphous phase-change on picosecond timescales remain unknown. Femtosecond laser excitation and an ultrashort x-ray probe is used to show the temporal separ…

We study spin wave excitations in a three-dimensional nanocomposite magnet of exchange coupled hard (SmCo$_5$) and soft (FeCo) phases. The dipolar interaction splits the spin wave energies into the upper and lower branches of the spin wave manifold. When the amount of the soft phase is increased the energy of low-lyin…

Within the BaFe2As2 crystal lattice, we partially substitute thallium for barium and report the effects of interlayer coupling in Ba(1-x)Tl(x)Fe2As2 crystals. We demonstrate the unusual effects of magneto-elastic coupling and charge doping in this iron-arsenide material, whereby Néel temperature rises with small x, an…

In this paper, we report on the investigation of (1) the transport properties of multi-carriers in semi-metal Bi and (2) the spin conversion physics in this semimetal system in a ferrimagnetic insulator, yttrium-iron-garnet. Hall measurements reveal that electrons and holes co-exist in the Bi, with electrons being the…

An electric current in the presence of spin-orbit coupling can generate a spin accumulation that exerts torques on a nearby magnetization. We demonstrate that, even in the absence of materials with strong bulk spin-orbit coupling, a torque can arise solely due to interfacial spin-orbit coupling, namely Rashba-Eldestei…

Aluminum borohydride (Al(BH$_4$)$_3$) is an example of a promising hydrogen storage material with exceptional hydrogen densities by weight and volume and a low hydrogen desorption temperature. But, unfortunately, its production of diborane (B$_2$H$_6$) gases upon heating to release the hydrogen restricts its practical…
