Realization of an atomic quantum Hall system in four dimensions

Modern condensed matter physics relies on the concept of topology to classify matter, from quantum Hall systems to topological insulators. Engineered systems, benefiting from synthetic dimensions, can potentially give access to topological states predicted ...

Data-Intensive Exploration of the Photoelectrochemical Responses of Main-Group Metal Sulfides

Nicola Colonna

Materials that efficiently promote the thermodynamically uphill water-splitting reaction under solar illumination are essential for generating carbon-free ("green") hydrogen. Mapping out the combinatorial space of potential photocatalysts for this reaction ...

High-Quality Data Enabling Universality of Band Gap Descriptor and Discovery of Photovoltaic Perovskites

Alfredo Pasquarello, Haiyuan Wang, Wei Chen

Extensive machine-learning-assisted research has been dedicated to predicting band gaps for perovskites, driven by their immense potential in photovoltaics. Yet, the effectiveness is often hampered by the lack of high-quality band gap data sets, particular ...

High-throughput screening of Weyl semimetals

Nicola Marzari, Davide Campi, Davide Grassano

Topological Weyl semimetals represent a novel class of nontrivial materials, where band crossings with linear dispersions take place at generic momenta across reciprocal space. These crossings give rise to low -energy properties akin to those of Weyl fermi ...

A remarkable new Agestrata Eschscholtz, 1829 from Myanmar (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae)

Michele De Palma

A new species in the genus Agestrata Eschscholtz, 1829 is described from Myanmar. The new taxon, Agestrata fortii n. sp., is markedly different from the other members of the genus. Further to the uniform turquoise-cerulean blue color of the integument, A. ...

Unraveling the Effect of the Chemical and Structural Composition of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 on the Electron Transfer at the Electrochemical Interface

Sandro Carrara, Mallikarjun Madagalam

In order to deepen the understanding of the role of transition metal oxides in electron transfer at the electrochemical interface, the performance of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1) nanomaterials in electrochemical sensing is studied. Nanomate ...

Origin of metallic-like behavior in disordered carbon nano-onions

Oleg Yazyev, Kristians Cernevics

Carbon nano-onions are a class of nanomaterials that can exhibit long electron spin relaxation times at room temperature and thus hold promise as potential building blocks for spintronics and quantum information processing devices. Despite first being synt ...

Complementary screening for quantum spin Hall insulators in two-dimensional exfoliable materials

Nicola Marzari, Davide Campi, Antimo Marrazzo, Davide Grassano

Quantum spin Hall insulators are a class of topological materials that has been extensively studied during the past decade. One of their distinctive features is the presence of a finite band gap in the bulk and gapless, topologically protected edge states ...

Character of Electronic States in the Transport Gap of Molecules on Surfaces

Klaus Kern, Abhishek Grewal

We report on scanningtunneling microscopy (STM) topographs ofindividual metal phthalocyanines (MPc) on a thin salt (NaCl) filmadsorbed on a gold substrate, at tunneling energies within the molecule'selectronic transport gap. Theoretical models of increasin ...

Spin, Charge, and ?-Spin Separation in One-Dimensional Photodoped Mott Insulators

We show that effectively cold metastable states in one-dimensional photodoped Mott insulators described by the extended Hubbard model exhibit spin, charge, and q-spin separation. Their wave functions in the large on-site Coulomb interaction limit can be ex ...
