An NCrystal extension for thermal neutron scattering in MCNP

A new extension for MCNP has been developed that incorporates the NCrystal thermal scattering package in the form of a Fortran to C++ wrapper, which adds the capability to describe thermal neutron scattering in the NCrystal formalism instead of the ACE tabular format. This can be used to described poly- or single-crystalline materials as well as liquids. In conclusion, the functionality of this extension to MCNP is illustrated using a layered crystal monochromator, leakage of neutrons from a moderating sphere of material, and by simulating criticality benchmarks.

Rapid Screening of Single-Atom Catalyst Synthesis Conditions Using ToF-SIMS and Facet-Dependent Single-Crystal Substrates

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) offer superior catalytic performance compared to traditional nanoparticle catalysts but are challenging to develop because of the need for extensive optimization and specialized characterization techniques. Here, this study presents a rapid and versatile method for detecting synthesis conditions and elucidating deposition mechanisms of SACs on various substrates. By depositing active elements (Au, Cu, Ni and Rh) on facet-specific single-crystalline substrates (CeO 2 , TiO 2 , MgO and Al 2 O 3 ) and employing time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (ToF-SIMS), we assessed facet-dependent deposition behaviors and identified optimal conditions for solution-based SAC synthesis. On CeO 2 and TiO 2 , we confirmed facet-dependent deposition, primarily influenced by oxygen vacancy density and photocatalytic activity, respectively. MgO exhibited the formation of metal oxide/hydroxide clusters for all active elements, and the degree of clustering for Cu and Ni was correlated with the facet hydrolysis susceptibility. Notably, Au and Rh deposition on MgO was facet-independent, attributed to the formation of hydroxide species in solution. Al 2 O 3 , due to its chemical stability and lack of surface defects, did not show active element deposition. This study not only provides a time and cost-efficient method for prescreening SAC synthesis conditions, but it also provides valuable insights into the various deposition mechanisms governing SAC formation on different substrates, paving the way for the rational design of tailored SACs for various catalytic applications.

Subnanometer Thick Native sp 2 Carbon on Oxidized Diamond Surfaces

Oxygen-terminated diamond has a wide breadth of applications, which include stabilizing near-surface color centers, semiconductor devices, and biological sensors. Despite the vast literature on characterizing functionalization groups on diamond, the chemical composition of the shallowest portion of the surface (<1 nm) is challenging to probe with conventional techniques like XPS and FTIR. In this work, we demonstrate the use of angleresolved XPS to probe the first ten nanometers of both oxygen and hydrogen terminated (100) single-crystalline diamond grown via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). With the use of consistent peakfitting methods, the peak identities and relative peak binding energies were identified for sp 2 carbon, ether, hydroxyl, carbonyl, and C−H groups for both of these diamond surface terminations. For the oxygen-terminated sample, we also quantified the thickness of the sp 2 carbon layer situated on top of the bulk sp 3 diamond bonded carbon to be 0.3 ± 0.1 nm, based on the analysis of the Auger electron spectra and D-parameter calculations. These results indicate that the majority of the oxygen is bonded to the sp 2 carbon layer on the diamond, and not directly to the sp 3 diamond bonded carbon.

Hybrid MBE Route to Adsorption-Controlled Growth of BaTiO 3 Membranes with Robust Polarization Switching

Freestanding ferroelectric membranes are promising for flexible electronics, nonvolatile memory, photonics, and spintronics, but their synthesis is challenged by the need for reproducibility with precise stoichiometric control. Here, we demonstrate the adsorption-controlled growth of single-crystalline, epitaxial BaTiO 3 films by hybrid molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on a binary oxide sacrificial layer. Using a simple water-droplet lift-off method, we obtained submillimeter- to millimeter-sized membranes that retained crystallinity, as confirmed by high-resolution X-ray diffraction, and exhibited robust tetragonal symmetry, as verified by Raman spectroscopy. Impedance spectroscopy confirmed a high dielectric constant of ∼1340, reflecting the robust dielectric response of the membranes. Ferroelectric functionality was revealed by piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) and further verified by polarization-electric field (P-E) loop measurements with Positive-Up-Negative-Down (PUND). The P-E loops exhibited a remnant polarization of ∼5 μC cm –2 and a coercive field of ∼63 kV cm –1 . Furthermore, these results were interpreted in relation to c- and a-domain configurations.

Epitaxial Electrodeposition of Fe with Controlled In-Plane Variants for a Reversible Metal Anode in an Aqueous Electrolyte

The development of reversible metal anodes is a key challenge for advancing aqueous battery technologies, particularly for scalable and safe stationary energy storage applications. Here, in this study, we demonstrate a strategy to realize epitaxial electrodeposition of iron (Fe) on single-crystal copper (Cu) substrates in aqueous electrolytes. We compare the electrodeposition behavior of Fe on polycrystalline and single-crystalline Cu substrates, revealing that the latter enables highly uniform, dense, and crystallographically aligned Fe growth. Comprehensive electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirms the formation of Fe with specific out-of-plane and in-plane orientations, including well-defined rotational variants. Our findings highlight that epitaxial electrodeposition of Fe can suppress dendritic growth and significantly enhance Coulombic efficiency during plating/stripping cycles. This approach bridges fundamental crystallography with practical electrochemical performance, providing a pathway toward high-efficiency aqueous batteries utilizing Earth-abundant materials.

One-Step Transfer of Symmetric and Asymmetric Contacts for Large-Scale 2D Electronics and Optoelectronics

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are highly promising candidates for thin-film transistor applications due to their scalability, transferability, atomic thickness, and relatively high carrier mobility. However, a substantial performance gap remains between individual devices based on single-crystalline 2D films and wafer-scale integrated circuits, primarily due to defects introduced during conventional fabrication processes. Here, we report a diamond-assisted electrode transfer technique for the van der Waals integration of wafer-scale prefabricated electrode arrays onto 2D materials, enabling scalable electronics and optoelectronics. Implemented on metal–organic chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer molybdenum disulfide, this method forms ultraclean metal–semiconductor interfaces, yielding field-effect transistors with excellent ohmic contacts, a low contact resistance of 400 Ω·μm, and a Schottky barrier height of only 9 meV. Furthermore, we demonstrate a scalable transistor array on monolayer molybdenum disulfide with excellent device performance uniformity, achieving an average field-effect mobility of 30 cm 2 V –1 s –1 and an on/off current ratio exceeding 105. Additionally, high photocurrent and responsivity were demonstrated in the array devices, showing their potential for excellent image detection. We further demonstrate the versatility of this technique by fabricating a Schottky diode array through a single-step transfer of asymmetric electrodes─low work function aluminum and high work function gold─onto monolayer tungsten diselenide. This approach provides a clean, effective solution for contact engineering in 2D materials, offering a viable pathway toward wafer-scale, high-performance 2D electronics, optoelectronics, and integrated circuits.

Emergent Above-Gap Photoluminescence in Molecularly Engineered Hybrid Bilayer Crystals

Bilayer crystals, built by stacking two-dimensional (2D) covalent monolayers, give rise to coupled excitonic states whose properties are constrained by fixed lattice symmetry and orientation. Replacing one covalent monolayer with a 2D molecular crystal––held together by non-covalent forces––overcomes this limitation, as molecular functional groups afford tunable in-plane lattice geometry, intermolecular spacing, and interlayer coupling, providing a powerful knob for exciton engineering. Here, in this study, we report four-atom-thick hybrid bilayer crystals (HBCs) synthesized by directly growing single-crystalline PDI molecular crystal atop WS 2 monolayers, which exhibit a robust photoluminescence (PL) peak 120 meV above the WS 2 optical band gap alongside a belowgap emission. Both peaks display strong polarization anisotropy—nearing unity for the above-gap emission—and maintain a perfectly linear power-law dependence up to an excitation density of ~10 7 mW/cm 2 , indicative of coexisting localized and delocalized excitonic states. Substituting PDI with a PTCDA monolayer on WS 2 fully quenches PL, demonstrating molecular control over excitonic emission. Lattice scale ab initio GW and GW-BSE calculations reveal a significantly hybridized bilayer band structure in PDI/WS 2 that supports interlayer excitonic species both above and below the WS 2 gap with strong polarization anisotropy, in excellent agreement with experiment. Our work introduces a molecule-based bilayer platform for the bottom-up design and control of excitonic phenomena in atomically thin optoelectronic and quantum materials.

Salt-Induced Polymorphs Observed in Colloidal Single Crystals

Polymorphs are solid materials with the same chemical composition but different crystallographic structures. A unique aspect of polymorphs is that they exhibit different physical properties, such as solubility, melting point, density, color, hardness, and bioavailability. Here, we synthesized polymorphs of colloidal crystals engineered with DNA by slow-cooling gold nanoparticle-core programmable atom equivalents (PAEs, particles with DNA sequences that control their bonding characteristics) under salt concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 4 M NaCl. This approach yielded a diverse set of single-crystalline phases with cubic, tetragonal, and hexagonal lattice symmetries. The structural transitions observed here arise solely from the modulation of interparticle repulsion via ionic strength and thermal processing. Notably, in certain cases, we observed diffusionless phase transformations, wherein the superlattices evolve from cubic to lower-symmetry tetragonal lattices. By tuning the thermal stability and salt concentration, we captured intermediate, metastable body-centered tetragonal structures during the slow-cool process, indicating that subtle changes in free energy can direct crystallization to low-symmetry phases. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that thermal and ionic parameters can be tuned to access and stabilize colloidal crystal polymorphs with emergent structures and interesting functional properties.

Pt Particles on a Dynamic TiO 2 Support in Near-Ambient Conditions−Disentangling Size, Pressure, and Support Effects

Platinum particles on reducible oxides are known to form complex and highly dynamic catalyst systems at elevated pressures and temperatures, often adopting active structures that differ from those found at room temperature and under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV). Here, we study the oxidation and structural evolution of subnanometer Pt clusters and nanoparticles supported on rutile TiO 2 (110) across an oxygen pressure range from UHV to 0.1 mbar, using near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) under UHV and NAP conditions, and low-energy ion scattering (LEIS). Our results reveal distinct differences in oxidation behavior and thermal stability between Pt nanoparticles and clusters, which are further modulated by the support stoichiometry and oxygen pressure. Small Pt clusters become oxidized even at room temperature but are susceptible to accelerated sintering in 0.1 mbar O 2 at elevated temperatures. In contrast, well-crystallized Pt nanoparticles on near-stoichiometric TiO 2 show weaker oxidation. On a reduced, defective TiO 2 support, Pt instead quickly becomes deeply buried by new titania layers, which are formed during support reoxidation. This process appears to result primarily from interactions of the support with the gas phase, unlike the classical, selflimited encapsulation that is induced by the strong metal−support interaction (SMSI). Finally, we address the full complexity of real catalysts in a direct side-by-side comparison of the single-crystalline model system with a Pt-loaded TiO 2 powder catalyst (P25). We conclude that the stoichiometry of the model supports must be carefully chosen and controlled to accurately reproduce the expected state of powder supports during redox reactions.

Atomic Alignment in PbS Nanocrystal Superlattices with Compact Inorganic Ligands via Reversible Oriented Attachment of Nanocrystals

Nanocrystals (NCs) serve as versatile building blocks for the creation of functional materials with NC self-assembly offering opportunities to enable novel material properties. Here, in this work, we demonstrate that PbS NCs functionalized with strongly negatively charged metal chalcogenide complex (MCC) ligands, such as Sn 2 S 6 4– and AsS 4 3– , can self-assemble into all-inorganic superlattices with both long-range superlattice translational and atomic-lattice orientational order. Structural characterizations reveal that the NCs adopt an unexpected edge-to-edge alignment, and numerical simulation clarifies that orientational order is thermodynamically stabilized by many-body ion correlations originating from the dense electrolyte. Furthermore, we show that the superlattices of Sn 2 S 6 4– -functionalized PbS NCs can be fully disassembled back into the colloidal state, which is highly unusual for orientationally attached superlattices with atomic-lattice alignment. The reversible oriented attachment of NCs, enabling their dynamic assembly and disassembly into effectively single-crystalline superstructures, offers a pathway toward designing reconfigurable materials with adaptive and controllable electronic and optoelectronic properties.

Reversible control over the distribution of chemical inhomogeneities in multiferroic BiFeO3

Abstract Despite the appeal of flawless order, semiconductor technology has demonstrated that implanting inhomogeneities into single-crystalline materials is pivotal for modern electronics. However, the influence of the local arrangement of chemical inhomogeneities on the material’s functionalities is underexplored. In this work, we control the distribution of chemical inhomogeneities in La 3+ -substituted ferroelectric BiFeO 3 thin films. By means of a stress- and composition-driven phase transition, we trigger the formation of a lattice of La 3+ -rich and La 3+ -poor layers. This ordering correlates with the emergence of an antipolar phase. An electric field restores the original ferroelectric phase and re-randomizes the distribution of the La 3+ inhomogeneities. Leveraging these insights, we tune the polar/antipolar phase coexistence to set the net polarization of La 0.15 Bi 0.85 FeO 3 to any desired value between its saturation limits. Finally, we control the net polarization response in device-compliant capacitor heterostructures to show that inhomogeneity-distribution control is a valuable tool in the design of functional oxide electronics.

Vibrational and electronic properties of Np 2 O 5 from experimental spectroscopy and first principles calculations

High-valence actinide oxides are critical to understanding the behavior of 5f-electrons, yet their structural and electronic properties remain poorly understood due to challenges in synthesis and handling. We report the first Raman spectroscopic study of single-crystalline Np 2 O 5 and the first scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) measurement on any neptunium-containing material. Hydrothermally synthesized crystals were structurally verified by X-ray diffraction. Raman spectra revealed sharply resolved vibrational features, including previously unreported low-frequency modes. STS measurements revealed a band gap of 1.5 eV. Density functional theory (DFT) enables vibrational mode assignments, reveals neptunium-dominated low-frequency phonons, oxygen-dominated high-frequency modes, and predicts an indirect band gap of 1.68 eV. This predicted value is in excellent agreement with the experimentally measured STS gap. This combined Raman, DFT, and STS approach provides a robust framework for correlating lattice dynamics and electronic structure in actinide materials, providing benchmark data for Np 2 O 5 , and opening new avenues for probing structure–property relationships in complex f-electron materials.

Growth of tetragonal PtO by molecular-beam epitaxy and its integration into β-Ga 2 O 3 Schottky diodes

We demonstrate the epitaxial growth of tetragonal platinum monoxide (PtO) on MgO, TiO 2 , and β-Ga 2 O 3 single-crystalline substrates by ozone molecular-beam epitaxy. We provide synthesis routes and derive a growth diagram under which PtO films can be synthesized by physical vapor deposition. A combination of electrical transport and photoemission spectroscopy measurements, in conjunction with density functional theory calculations, reveal PtO to be a degenerately doped p-type semiconductor with a bandgap of E g ≈ 1.6 eV. Spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements are used to extract the complex dielectric function spectra, indicating a transition from free-carrier absorption to higher photon energy transitions at E ≈ 1.6 eV. Using tetragonal PtO as an anode contact, we fabricate prototype Schottky diodes on n-type Sn-doped β-Ga 2 O 3 substrates and extract Schottky barrier heights of ϕ B > 2.2 eV.

Quantum critical point followed by Kondo-like behavior due to Cu substitution in the itinerant antiferromagnet La 2 ⁢(Cu 𝑥 ⁢Ni 1−𝑥 ) 7

La 2 ⁢Ni 7 is an itinerant magnetic system with a small ordered moment of ∼ 0.1⁢µ 𝐵 /Ni and a series of antiferromagnetic (AFM) transitions at 𝑇 1 = 61.0K, 𝑇 2 = 56.5K, and 𝑇 3 = 42.2K. 𝑀 ⁡(𝐻), and 𝜌 ⁡(𝐻) isotherms as well as constant field 𝑀⁡ (𝑇) and 𝜌 ⁡(𝑇) measurements on single-crystalline samples manifest a complex, anisotropic 𝐻−𝑇 phase diagram with multiple phase lines. Here, in this study, we present the growth and characterization of single crystals of the La 2 ⁢(Cu 𝑥 ⁢Ni 1−𝑥 ) 7 series for 0 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 0.181. We measured powder x-ray diffraction and composition, as well as anisotropic temperature- and field-dependent resistivity, temperature- and field-dependent magnetization, and temperature-dependent heat capacity on these single crystals. Using the measured data we infer a transition temperature-composition (𝑇−𝑥) phase diagram for this system to study the evolution of the AFM ordering upon Cu substitution. For 0 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 0.097, the system remains magnetically ordered at base temperature with 𝑥 ≤ 0.012, showing signs of multiple AFM ordering temperatures. For the higher substitution levels 0.125 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 0.181, there are no signatures of magnetic ordering, but anomalous features in resistance and heat capacity data are observed which are consistent with the Kondo effect in this system. The intermediate 𝑥 = 0.105 sample lies between the magnetic ordered and the Kondo regime and is in the vicinity of the AFM quantum critical point (QCP). Thus, La 2⁢ (Cu 𝑥 ⁢Ni 1−𝑥 ) 7 is an example of a small moment system that can be tuned through a QCP. Given these data combined with the fact that the La 2⁢ Ni 7 structure has kagomelike, Ni sublattices running perpendicular to the crystallographic 𝑐 axis, and a predicted 3⁢𝑑-electron flat band that contributes to the density of states near the Fermi energy, La 2 ⁢(Cu 𝑥 ⁢Ni 1−𝑥 ) 7 becomes a promising system to host and study exotic physics.

Anisotropic magnetic behavior of Nd 3 ⁢ScBi 5 and Pr 3 ⁡ScBi 5 single crystals

Here, we report an investigation of the magnetic, thermodynamic, and transport properties of single-crystalline Nd 3 ⁢ScBi 5 and Pr 3 ⁡ScBi 5 . Both compounds crystallize in the hexagonal 𝑃⁢6 3 /𝑚⁢𝑐⁢𝑚 space group that is common to related materials with rare-earth atoms that form twisted kagome nets. Nd 3 ⁢ScBi 5 undergoes two successive antiferromagnetic transitions, at 𝑇 𝑁 =5.6K and 𝑇 2 =4.7K. When a magnetic field is applied along [100], both 𝑇 𝑁 and 𝑇 2 are suppressed with increasing field, and multiple metamagnetic transitions are observed; in-plane anisotropy is demonstrated by a slight broadening and movement of the metamagnetic transitions when the field is applied along [110]. For H ∥ [001], 𝑇 𝑁 and 𝑇 2 exhibit only a weak field dependence and metamagnetic transitions are not observed. The magnetoresistance and Hall effect respond strongly to the metamagnetic transitions and further motivate a detailed characterization of the magnetic structures under applied fields. Pr 3 ⁡ScBi 5 , in contrast, undergoes a single antiferromagnetic transition at 𝑇 𝑁 =5.3K and a single metamagnetic transition at higher fields. These findings place Nd 3 ⁢ScBi 5 and Pr 3 ⁡ScBi 5 as promising systems for exploring anisotropic magnetism and field-driven magnetic phase transitions in intermetallic compounds.

Low-temperature magnetic structure and lattice response in SmCuAs 2

We investigated the structural and magnetic properties of single-crystalline SmCuAs 2 using high-resolution synchrotron x-ray diffraction and x-ray resonant magnetic scattering (XRMS) at the Sm 𝐿 2 and 𝐿 3 edges. Temperature-dependent diffraction measurements confirm that SmCuAs2 maintains its tetragonal symmetry from room temperature down to 8 K, with lattice parameters showing anomalous behavior below the resistivity minimum (𝑇≈30K). Notably, the c-axis lattice parameter exhibits a plateau and subsequent increase near the Néel temperature, indicating magnetoelastic coupling. XRMS measurements reveal a commensurate antiferromagnetic structure with a propagation vector 𝒒=(0,0,0.5). Our measurement shows that the Sm moments are aligned within the 𝒂𝒃 plane and arranged in a ++−− stacking along the 𝒄 axis. Comparison with related 𝑅⁢𝐸⁢CuAs 2 compounds (RE = Pr, Nd, and Gd) suggests that in-plane moment orientation and associated magnetic frustration play a key role in the emergence of the resistivity minimum. Differences in spin-orbit and magnetoelastic coupling across the series highlight their importance in governing low-temperature transport behavior.

Magnetic order in the van der Waals magnet VCl 3

Here, we investigated the structural and magnetic properties of single-crystalline VCl 3 , a newly synthesized member of the vanadium trihalide family. High-quality single crystals were grown by the chemical vapor transport method, and their behavior was characterized using neutron diffraction and thermodynamic measurements. We show that VCl 3 crystallizes in the BiI 3 -type structure at room temperature and undergoes a structural phase transition at 𝑇 𝑆 = 103.7⁢(5)⁢K that lowers the lattice symmetry, followed by a zigzag antiferromagnetic order with a propagation vector 𝑘 = (0,0.5,1) below 𝑇 𝑁 = 21.8⁢(1)⁢K. Neutron diffraction experiments indicate that the ordered moments are canted by approximately 21° away from the 𝑐 axis toward the 𝑎 axis, yielding a total moment of approximately 1.09⁢(2) ⁢𝜇 B /V 3+ . Field-dependent magnetization along the 𝑐 axis exhibits a half magnetization plateau, indicative of a field-stabilized fractional state. These results establish VCl 3 as a new platform for exploring structural transitions, anisotropic magnetism, and field-induced phases in vanadium-based honeycomb magnets.

Anisotropic magnetism and Kondo-lattice behavior in the frustrated antiferromagnet Ce 3 ⁢MgBi 5

Here, we report the synthesis and physical characterization of single-crystalline Ce 3 ⁢MgBi 5 , a previously unexplored member of the Ce 3 ⁢𝑀⁢𝑃⁢𝑛 5 family. This compound crystallizes in the hexagonal 𝑃⁢6 3 /𝑚⁢𝑐⁢𝑚 structure, featuring an anisotropic Ce sublattice composed of zigzag chains along the 𝑐 axis and a distorted kagome-like network in the basal plane. Magnetization measurements reveal antiferromagnetic order below 𝑇 𝑁 ≈ 4.2K with strong magnetic anisotropy and multiple field-induced metamagnetic transitions for fields applied perpendicular to [001], leading to a dome-shaped 𝐻–𝑇 phase diagram. Electrical transport exhibits characteristic signatures of a Ce-based Kondo lattice, including broad resistivity maxima and pronounced field-dependent anomalies in the magnetoresistance and Hall response that track the magnetic phase boundaries. Specific-heat measurements confirm the magnetic transition and show that the full R ⁢ln⁡ 2 entropy expected for a Ce 3+ Kramers doublet is recovered by 20 K, indicating an extended temperature range of magnetic fluctuations consistent with Kondo correlations. Our results establish Ce 3 ⁢MgBi 5 as a platform within the Ce 3 ⁢𝑀⁢𝑃⁢𝑛 5 family for exploring the interplay of geometric frustration, magnetic anisotropy, and Kondo-lattice physics under applied magnetic fields.
