Effect of Composition on Mechanical Properties and Conductivity of the Dual-Ion Conductor Na 1+ x Mn x /2 Zr 2– x /2 (PO 4 ) 3 for Solid-State Batteries

Here we report the dependence of mechanical properties and ionic conductivity of the Na 1+ x Mn x /2 Zr 2– x /2 (PO 4 ) 3 (designated as NMZP) ionic conductor on its composition (with x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0). Local mechanics was studied by instrumented nanoindentation, and the properties of interest included the elastic modulus, hardness, and fracture toughness. Overall, the material becomes more compliant and soft with the increase in the Na content. The elastic modulus reduces from 120 to 80 GPa, and nanoindentation hardness reduces from 7.8 to 4.2 GPa when x changes from 0.5 to 2.0. The relationship with fracture toughness ( K C ) is highly nonlinear: fracture toughness first decreases and then increases with the increase in the sodium content, reaching a maximum value of 0.89 MPa × m 1/2 at x = 2.0. Such a relationship was found to correlate with the formation of a glassy phase in NMZP at intermediate Na concentration. The maximum ionic conductivity coincides with the maximum fracture toughness in this material.

Role of Cations in the Cation-Driven Assembly Process and their Effect on the Charge Storage Properties of Bilayered Vanadium Oxide and Reduced Graphene Oxide Heterostructures in Alkali Ion Systems

Exfoliated δ-Li x V 2 O 5 ·nH 2 O (ex-LVO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) heterostructures were constructed using different assembling cations (i.e., Li⁺, Na⁺, and K⁺ ions). The ex-LVO and rGO nanoflakes were stacked together using a concentrated chloride solution of each assembling cation and vacuum annealed at 200 °C to form three distinct two-dimensional (2D) layered architectures. X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis confirmed that the assembling ions can control the interlayer spacing of the bilayered vanadium oxide (BVO) phase as well as impact the crystallographic water content, which in turn affects the electrochemical performance. Scanning electron microscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that a 2D heterointerface formed between LVO and rGO and that the cations used to assemble the heterostructure are trapped in the interlayer BVO region. High-resolution STEM imaging also showed the rGO dispersion throughout the LVO layers. Moreover, STEM-EELS identified a V 2 O 3 phase that forms along the rGO interface and can stabilize the materials during cycling. A charge storage mechanism analysis, combined with the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique, found that increased interlayer spacings of the BVO phase and using the assembling cations to define intercalation sites for identical charge-carrying ions lead to improved ion diffusion and increased capacities during cycling. Therefore, the Li⁺ and Na⁺ ion assembled heterostructures showed improved charge-carrying ion diffusion and charge storage capacities in each of their respective charge storage systems (i.e., Li-ion and Na-ion half-cells). In total, the cation used for heterostructure assembly can modify the final material structure and tailor the ion diffusion and charge storage capacity to tune its properties for the desired electrochemical system using a variety of 2D materials.

Optimized In Situ Doping Strategy Stabling Single-Crystal Ultrahigh-Nickel Layered Cathode Materials

Single-crystal Ni-rich cathodes offer promising prospects in mitigating intergranular microcracks and side reaction issues commonly encountered in conventional polycrystalline cathodes. However, the utilization of micrometer-sized single-crystal particles has raised concerns about sluggish Li + diffusion kinetics and unfavorable structural degradation, particularly in high Ni content cathodes. Herein, we present an innovative in situ doping strategy to regulate the dominant growth of characteristic planes in the singlecrystal precursor, leading to enhanced mechanical properties and effectively tackling the challenges posed by ultrahigh-nickel layered cathodes. Compared with the traditional dry-doping method, our in situ doping approach possesses a more homogeneous and consistent modifying effect from the inside out, ensuring the uniform distribution of doping ions with large radius (Nb, Zr, W, etc). Further, this mitigates the generally unsatisfactory substitution effect, thereby minimizing undesirable coating layers induced by different solubilities during the calcination process. Additionally, the uniformly dispersed ions from this in situ doping are beneficial for alleviating the two-phase coexistence of H2/H3 and optimizing the Li + concentration gradient during cycling, thus inhibiting the formation of intragranular cracks and interfacial deterioration. Consequently, the in situ doped cathodes demonstrate exceptional cycle retention and rate performance under various harsh testing conditions. Our optimized in situ doping strategy not only expands the application prospects of elemental doping but also offers a promising research direction for developing high-energy-density single-crystal cathodes with extended lifetime.

Generative adversarial networks (GAN) based efficient sampling of chemical composition space for inverse design of inorganic materials

A major challenge in materials design is how to efficiently search the vast chemical design space to find the materials with desired properties. One effective strategy is to develop sampling algorithms that can exploit both explicit chemical knowledge and implicit composition rules embodied in the large materials database. Here, we propose a generative machine learning model (MatGAN) based on a generative adversarial network (GAN) for efficient generation of new hypothetical inorganic materials. Trained with materials from the ICSD database, our GAN model can generate hypothetical materials not existing in the training dataset, reaching a novelty of 92.53% when generating 2 million samples. The percentage of chemically valid (charge-neutral and electronegativity-balanced) samples out of all generated ones reaches 84.5% when generated by our GAN trained with such samples screened from ICSD, even though no such chemical rules are explicitly enforced in our GAN model, indicating its capability to learn implicit chemical composition rules to form compounds. Our algorithm is expected to be used to greatly expand the range of the design space for inverse design and large-scale computational screening of inorganic materials.

Metal ion dopant-induced famatinite to chalcostibite phase transformation of copper antimony sulphide colloidal nanostructures: effect on photophysical and pseudocapacitance properties

Here, the strategic doping of transition metal ions into copper antimony sulphide (CAS) semiconducting nanostructures can significantly influence their photophysical and pseudocapacitive properties, for which there are few reports and therefore is the focus of this study. Accordingly, highly crystalline metal ion (Mn 2+ , Fe 2+ , Co 2+ , Ni 2+ and Zn 2+ ) doped off-stoichiometric copper rich/poor, antimony-rich/poor, and sulphur-poor CAS nanostructures (10–23 nm) were grown via colloidal (hot-injection) synthesis using metal diethyldithiocarbamate precursors. Importantly, metal ion doping significantly influences the structure and composition of the off-stoichiometric CAS nanostructures. Data from powder X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, high-resolution scanning/transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirm that the heavier metal ion dopants induce a novel phase transformation from famatinite (fCAS) to chalcostibite (cCAS) nanostructures. The influence of the metal ion dopants is also observed in the optical properties of as-synthesized nanostructures. This involves blue-shifted ultraviolet-visible absorption, reduced Urbach tailing, and tunable bandgaps between 2.17 and 2.38 eV. Also, the doped nanostructures display broad visible-near infrared photoluminescence via a triple radiative pathway with relatively short decay lifetimes between 0.2 and 6.1 ns. This is mediated by electronic transitions involving intrinsic (copper/antimony/sulphur interstitial) and extrinsic (metal ion interstitial) defect states. Additionally, electrodes prepared from Mn 2+ -doped fCAS nanostructures show enhanced pseudocapacitance via Na+ surface adsorption and intercalation relative to undoped fCAS electrodes, while Zn 2+ -doped cCAS electrodes exhibit pseudocapacitance via a combination of Na+ surface adsorption, intercalation, and redox reactions. These electrodes exhibit reduced charge transfer resistance, improved electronic conductivity and notably enhanced specific capacitance (∼222 F g −1 ), and charge transport, as measured in 1 M Na 2 SO 4 electrolyte via cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. To this end, the discovery of the metal ion-induced phase transformation presents a new avenue for optimizing the functional properties of fCAS and cCAS nanostructures, highlighting the critical role of metal ion-related defects in controlling the optical and electrochemical properties, towards potential solar absorption and energy storage applications.

Proton damage in (Y,Lu,Gd) 3 (Al,Ga) 5 O 12 :Ce mixed garnet scintillators

Scintillators are vital components for nuclear instrumentation and its applications, including plasma diagnostics and imaging. As yields in controlled fusion experiments increase, the radiation tolerance of scintillator candidates for use in instrumentation is of particular importance. High radiation exposure can damage scintillating materials and alter the optical properties. The effects of radiation damage in Ce-doped mixed garnet ceramics over the compositional range (Y,Gd,Lu) 3 (Al,Ga) 5 O 12 are investigated using optical techniques. The samples were exposed to 200 keV protons to an accumulated fluence of 10 16 protons per square centimeter, then characterized using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). DRS with visible light can assess the radiation tolerance of opaque poly-crystalline samples, which can be easily sintered from powders and thus offer distinct advantages in characterization compared to single crystals. Qualitative trends in induced absorption are presented as a function of composition, and the ideal cerium dopant concentration for Y 2 LuAl 5 O 12 is determined to be 0.60–0.75 mol.%.

THz cyclotron resonance of a 2D hole gas in a GaN/AlN heterostructure

The recent discovery of highly conducting two-dimensional hole gases (2DHGs) in GaN/AlN heterojunctions has opened the door to efficient complementary GaN electronics, a long-standing challenge in wide-bandgap semiconductor device physics. Electrical transport studies and simulations indicate that both heavy- and light-hole valence bands are occupied in these 2DHGs, but direct experimental characterization of the fundamental parameters of the mobile holes remains at an early stage. Here, we use time-domain terahertz spectroscopy and pulsed magnetic fields up to 31 T to directly measure cyclotron resonance of the mobile 2D holes in these GaN-based 2DHGs at low temperature (8 K), revealing key material properties including effective masses, densities, scattering times, and mobilities.

Development of interatomic potential and effect of ordering on defect properties in CrMnV

Developing materials that can withstand extreme environments, such as high radiation doses and elevated temperatures, is crucial for next-generation particle accelerators, including the 2.4 MW Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility. High-Entropy Alloys have emerged as promising candidates for beam window materials due to their superior mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and radiation tolerance. In this study, we focus on the Cr–Mn–V alloy system, developing and employing machine-learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) to investigate the formation of an ordered phase and its influence on defect properties. Using hybrid Monte Carlo-Molecular Dynamics simulations, we observe the formation of a B2-ordered phase at lower temperatures, consistent with Density Functional Theory (DFT) predictions. Ordered structures display a bimodal distribution of migration energies and reduced mean square displacement values, indicating suppressed vacancy diffusion. Our results also show that the migration energy barrier varies based on the atomic species, with Mn and V exhibiting the highest and lowest average barriers, respectively. These findings suggest that atomic ordering inhibits defect mobility, potentially enhancing the radiation resistance of CrMnV alloys. The validated MLIP provides a reliable framework for simulations that are faster than traditional DFT while maintaining the accuracy required to study defect and ordering properties.

HSC-XXL: Baryon budget of the 136 XXL groups and clusters

Abstract We present our determination of the baryon budget for an X-ray-selected XXL sample of 136 galaxy groups and clusters spanning nearly two orders of magnitude in mass (M500 ∼ 1013–1015 M⊙) and the redshift range 0 ≲ z ≲ 1. Our joint analysis is based on the combination of Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP) weak-lensing mass measurements, XXL X-ray gas mass measurements, and HSC and Sloan Digital Sky Survey multiband photometry. We carry out a Bayesian analysis of multivariate mass-scaling relations of gas mass, galaxy stellar mass, stellar mass of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs), and soft-band X-ray luminosity, by taking into account the intrinsic covariance between cluster properties, selection effect, weak-lensing mass calibration, and observational error covariance matrix. The mass-dependent slope of the gas mass–total mass (M500) relation is found to be $1.29_{-0.10}^{+0.16}$, which is steeper than the self-similar prediction of unity, whereas the slope of the stellar mass–total mass relation is shallower than unity; $0.85_{-0.09}^{+0.12}$. The BCG stellar mass weakly depends on cluster mass with a slope of $0.49_{-0.10}^{+0.11}$. The baryon, gas mass, and stellar mass fractions as a function of M500 agree with the results from numerical simulations and previous observations. We successfully constrain the full intrinsic covariance of the baryonic contents. The BCG stellar mass shows the larger intrinsic scatter at a given halo total mass, followed in order by stellar mass and gas mass. We find a significant positive intrinsic correlation coefficient between total (and satellite) stellar mass and BCG stellar mass and no evidence for intrinsic correlation between gas mass and stellar mass. All the baryonic components show no redshift evolution.

Measurement of the Low-Energy Electron Inelastic Mean Free Path in Monolayer Graphene

Measuring the electron-transport properties of substrate-supported nanomaterials with the traditional two-point comparison method is difficult at electron energies below 50 eV, where core-level signals are too feeble to be detected against the strong secondary-electron background. Herein, a data-driven spectral analysis technique is used to study the low-energy electron-transport properties of substrate-supported target nanomaterials, while eliminating the influence of the substrate signal. Applying this technique, the electron-transport properties of the effective attenuation length and the inelastic mean free path (IMFP) can be determined with extremely high efficiency over the entire measured energy range of 6–600 eV. Further, these results show excellent agreement with other experimental and theoretical results. In this work, significant differences are observed between monolayer graphene and the bulk graphite IMFP, which illustrates the importance of the nanometer effect in the electron-transport properties of the material. Furthermore, this technique is readily applicable to any ultrathin material that can be transferred onto a polycrystalline gold substrate.

Analysis of heat transfer and AuNPs-mediated photo-thermal inactivation of E. coli at varying laser powers using single-phase CFD modeling

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemics, the demand for innovative and effective methods of bacterial inactivation has become a critical area of research, providing the impetus for this study. The purpose of this research is to analyze the AuNPs-mediated photothermal inactivation of E. coli. Gold nanoparticles irradiated by laser represent a promising technique for combating bacterial infection that combines high-tech and scientific progress. The intermediate aim of the work was to present the calibration of the model with respect to the gold nanorods experiment. The purpose of this work is to study the effect of initial concentration of E. coli bacteria, the design of the chamber and the laser power on heat transfer and inactivation of E. coli bacteria. Using the CFD simulation, the work combines three main concepts. 1. The conversion of laser light to heat has been described by a combination of three distinctive approximations: a- Discrete particle integration to take into account every nanoparticle within the system, b- Rayleigh-Drude approximation to determine the scattering and extinction coefficients and c- Lambert–Beer–Bourger law to describe the decrease in laser intensity across the AuNPs. 2. The contribution of the presence of E. coli bacteria to the thermal and fluid-dynamic fields in the microdevice was modeled by single-phase approach by determining the effective thermophysical properties of the water-bacteria mixture. 3. An approach based on a temperature threshold attained at which bacteria will be inactivated, has been used to predict bacterial response to temperature increases. The comparison of the thermal fields and temporal temperature changes obtained by the CFD simulation with those obtained experimentally confirms the accuracy of the light-heat conversion model derived from the aforementioned approximations. The results show a linear relationship between maximum temperature and variation in laser power over the range studied, which is in line with previous experimental results. It was also found that the temperature inside the microchamber can exceed 55 °C only when a laser power higher than 0.8 W is used, so bacterial inactivation begins. The experimental data allows to determinate the concentration of nanoparticles. This parameter is introduced into the mathematical model obtaining the same number of AuNPs. However, this assumption introduces a certain simplification, as in the mathematical model the distribution of nanoparticles is uniform. This work is directly connected to the use of gold nanoparticles for energy conversion, as well as the field of bacterial inactivation in microfluidic systems such as lab-on-a-chip. Presented mathematical and numerical models can be extended to the entire spectrum of wavelengths with particular use of white light in the inactivation of bacteria. This work represents a significant advancement in the field, as to the best of the authors’ knowledge, it is the first to employ a single-phase computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach specifically combined with the thermal inactivation of bacteria. Moreover, this research pioneers the use of a numerical simulation to analyze the temperature threshold of photothermal inactivation of E. coli mediated by gold nanorods (AuNRs). The integration of these methodologies offers a new perspective on optimizing bacterial inactivation techniques, making this study a valuable contribution to both computational modeling and biomedical applications.

Physically Based Modeling of PEMFC Cathode Catalyst Layers: Effective Microstructure and Ionomer Structure–Property Relationship Impacts

Abstract This work presents a pseudo-two-dimensional proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) model incorporating Nafion ionomer structure–property relationships in the cathode catalyst layer (CL) to capture and explain losses at low Pt loading. Structural data from neutron reflectometry and thin film Nafion conductivity measurements predict variations in the oxygen diffusion coefficient and ionic conductivity with changing CL ionomer thickness and Pt loading. By including these structure–property relationships, predicted polarization curves agree closely with previously published experimental data from cells with Pt loadings between 0.025 and 0.2 mg/cm2. Results demonstrate that structure–property relationships based on physically measurable ionomer and CL properties provide a feasible interpretation of PEMFC CL phenomena for a range of Pt loadings and help explain previously unaccounted-for losses at low Pt. Results also show that simulations must account for surface species coverage variations in order to properly capture the kinetic losses. Finally, results suggest that an increase in ionomer thickness surrounding the C/Pt surfaces may lead to improved cell performance due to improved ionic conductivity.

Developing Uncertainty Quantification Strategies in Electromagnetic Problems Involving Highly Resonant Cavities

High-quality factor resonant cavities are challenging structures to model in electromagnetics owing to their large sensitivity to minute parameter changes. Therefore, uncertainty quantification (UQ) strategies are pivotal to understanding key parameters affecting the cavity response. Furthermore, we discuss here some of these strategies focusing on shielding effectiveness (SE) properties of a canonical slotted cylindrical cavity that will be used to develop credibility evidence in support of predictions made using computational simulations for this application.

Analyzing the effect of pressure on the properties of point defects in $\gamma\mathrm{U–Mo}$ through atomistic simulations

Uranium–molybdenum (U–Mo) alloys in monolithic fuel foil are the primary candidate for the conversion of high-performance research reactors in the USA. Monolithic fuel is utilized in a plate-type design with a zirconium diffusion barrier and aluminum cladding. These fuel types are unique in that they contain no plenum for the release of fission gases, which, in conjunction with the aluminum cladding, can lead to large stress states within the fuel. The nature of how fundamental processes of radiation damage, including the evolution of point defects, under such stresses occur is unknown. In this work, we present molecular dynamics simulations of the formation energy of point defects under applied stress. We report this work will allow for the implementation of stress-dependent microstructural evolution models of nuclear fuels, including those for both fission gas bubble growth and creep, which are critical to ensure the stable and predictable behavior of research reactor fuels.

Improving Subsurface Stress Characterization for Carbon Dioxide Storage Projects

Researchers at New Mexico Tech, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Sandia National Laboratory (SNL), and other collaborators are developing a methodology to improve characterization of stress in the subsurface by means of a model-based inversion of reservoir engineering data, time lapse seismic measurements, and microseismicity. Historically, various geophysical techniques have been used in efforts to understand the state of stress in the subsurface through direct and indirect imaging of stress sensitive features (faults and fractures) and observations of transient stress related observations (time variant elastic moduli and microseismicity). Standard direct and indirect techniques for seismic fault and fracture imaging suffer from detectability limits due to reliance on high data quality and multiplicity. Variations in effective elastic properties from inversion of high quality seismic (Vertical Seismic Profile (VSP)) data may be used to infer stress near the wellbore through integration with independent experimental characterization of the stress-velocity relationship. Given a sufficiently robust observation network, microseismic emissions may be inverted to characterize focal mechanisms which, together with supporting assumptions and constraints, inform estimates of in-situ stress. While each of these techniques contributes in part to the characterization of stress within limited spatial and temporal domains, no one method provides an unambiguous stress measurement or a predictive capability over a site scale spatial extent. Challenges associated with solution non-uniqueness, measurement ambiguity, and irregular sampling may be greatly minimized through combination of one or more of independent measurements within a common framework in which realistic geological, hydrodynamic, geomechanical, and seismological constituent process models may act as constraints.

Improving Predictability of Mixed-Phase Clouds and Aerosol Interactions in the Community Earth System Model (CESM) with ARM Measurements

The objective of this project is to improve the simulation and predictability of mixed-phase clouds and aerosol interactions in the Community Earth System Model (CESM) through comparisons with the DOE ARM observations. There are four major goals of the proposed study: (1) Improve the representation of ice microphysical processes in mixed-phase clouds; (2) Develop a long-term multi-sensor mixed-phase cloud dataset; (3) Test the performance of improved ice microphysics in CESM-CAM5 with the ARM data; and (4) Examine mixed-phase cloud microphysics-aerosol-dynamics-radiation interactions in CESM-CAM5. In this project, we have (1) Improved the representation of ice microphysical processes in mixed-phase clouds that include ice nucleation, ice depositional growth through the Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen (WBF) process, feedbacks between cloud microphysics, dynamics and radiation, and provides links to aerosol properties in the Community Earth System Model (CESM)-Community Atmosphere Model version 5 (CAM5); (2) Developed a long-term multi-sensor mixed-phase cloud dataset. The mixed-phase cloud retrieval algorithms are improved by refining the phase determinations and ice number concentration retrievals. A multi-year mixed-phase cloud observation dataset (1999-2004; October 2013-February 2017) is regenerated at the ARM Barrow site with the improved algorithms. The dataset has been used in the global model evaluation to improve the model parameterizations; (3) Tested the performance of improved ice microphysics in CESM-CAM5 with the ARM data. CESM-CAM5 is run in the DOE Cloud-Associated Parameterizations Testbed (CAPT) and in the single-column model (SCM) mode to facilitate comparison with ARM observations. Multi-year CAPT simulations of seasonal variations of cloud microphysical properties, cloud liquid water path (LWP) and ice water path (IWP), cloud longwave and shortwave forcings, cloud occurrence frequency are evaluated against the ARM multi-sensor mixed-phase cloud retrievals; and (4) Examined mixed-phase cloud microphysics-aerosol-dynamics-radiation interactions in CESM-CAM5 that include the impacts of different ice nucleation mechanisms, sensitivity to dust IN concentration, treatment of the WBF process on mixed-phase cloud properties. Aerosol effect on mixed-phase clouds through the liquid phase (droplet activation) and ice phase processes (e.g., the glaciation indirect effect) is investigated.
