Magnetic structure of the two-dimensional XY antiferromagnet Sr2CoSi2O7 studied using single-crystal neutron diffraction

We report a combined polarized and unpolarized neutron diffraction study on a multiferroic Sr2CoSi2O7 (SCSO) single crystal below and above the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature TN = 6.5 K. Unpolarized neutron diffraction measurements at 15 K confirm ...

What do we talk about, when we talk about single-crystal termination-dependent selectivity of Cu electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction? A data-driven retrospective

Kevin Rossi

We mine from the literature experimental data on the CO2 electrochemical reduction selectivity of Cu single crystal surfaces. We then probe the accuracy of a machine learning model trained to predict faradaic efficiencies for 11 CO2 reduction reaction prod ...

Murunskite - a new class of functional material

Davor Tolj

The subject of the present work is discovery and in-depth characterization of a new class of functional materials. Tuning of the bond polarity and orbital occupation with a goal of establishing balance between localization and delocalization of electrons - ...

NMR Crystallography in the Big Data Era: New Methods and Applications Powered by Machine Learning

Manuel Cordova

Structure determination of materials is key to understanding their physical properties. While single-crystal X-ray diffraction is the gold standard for structures displaying long-range order, many materials of interest are polycrystalline and/or disordered ...

Detecting the metabolism of individual yeast mutant strain cells when aged, stressed or treated with antioxidants with diamond magnetometry

Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Free radicals play a key role in the ageing process. However, free radicals are small, reactive and short lived and thus challenging to measure. We utilize a new technique called diamond magnetometry for this pur-pose. We make use of nitrogen vacancy cente ...

Understanding the role of surface oxygen-containing functional groups on carbon-supported cobalt catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction

Andreas Züttel, Thi Ha My Pham, Kangning Zhao, Youngdon Ko, Liping Zhong, Manhui Wei

Supported Co-based catalysts exhibit promising catalytic activities in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) during alkaline water electrolysis. Surface functionalization of the support modulates the dispersion of the catalysts and their interaction with the ...

Anomalous Hall effect and magnetic structure of the topological semimetal (Mn0.78Fe0.22)3Ge

Jian Rui Soh, Jan Persson

Me3+8Ge, being a Weyl semimetal, shows a large anomalous Hall effect (AHE), which decreases slowly with an increase in 8 from 0.1 to 0.4. However, AHE in this compound remains significantly large in the whole range of 8 because of the robust nature of the ...

Chemical Shift-Dependent Interaction Maps in Molecular Solids

David Lyndon Emsley, Manuel Cordova

Structure determinationof molecular solids through NMR crystallographyrelies on the generation of a comprehensive set of candidate crystalstructures and on the comparison of chemical shifts computed for thosecandidates with experimental values. Exploring t ...

A data-driven interpretation of the stability of organic molecular crystals

Michele Ceriotti, Edgar Albert Engel, Maria Pakhnova

Due to the subtle balance of intermolecular interactions that govern structure-property relations, predicting the stability of crystal structures formed from molecular building blocks is a highly non-trivial scientific problem. A particularly active and fr ...

Charge fluctuations in the intermediate-valence ground state of SmCoIn5

Nicola Colonna, Vladimir N. Strocov, Neeraj Kumar

The microscopic mechanism of heavy band formation, relevant for unconventional superconductivity in CeCoIn5 and other Ce-based heavy fermion materials, depends strongly on the efficiency with which f electrons are delocalized from the rare earth sites and ...
