Characterizing the surface compositions of supported bimetallic PtSn clusters: Effects of cluster-support interactions and surface adsorbates

PtSn bimetallic clusters on TiO2(110) and highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces have been characterized by scanning tunneling microscopy, low energy ion scattering (LEIS), Xray photoelectron spectroscopy, and temperature programmed desorption (TPD); density functional theory (DFT) calculations have also been performed to better understand adsorption of CO and D2 on the PtSn surfaces. On TiO2 at coverages of 2 ML of Pt and 2 ML of Sn, exclusively bimetallic clusters are formed for both orders of deposition because clusters of the first metal completely cover the surface such that all atoms of the second metal are incorporated into the existing clusters. In contrast, on HOPG, the high mobility and weak cluster-support interactions on HOPG result in much larger 2 ML monometallic clusters (~30 Å high) that do not completely cover the surface, and deposition of the second metal produces larger clusters as well as smaller ones. Despite the difference in cluster morphologies for the different orders of deposition and supports, the LEIS experiments demonstrate that in all cases, the PtSn clusters are rich in Sn at the surface, as expected based on the lower surface free energy for Sn compared to Pt. Furthermore, the +0.2 eV shift in the Sn(3d5/2) binding energy observed on all surfaces in the presence of Pt is consistent with PtSn alloy formation. Deposition of 2 ML of Sn on TiO2 produces two-dimensional clusters with oxidation of Sn and reduction of titania at the clustersupport interface, but addition of Pt to the Sn clusters causes Sn to diffuse away from this interface, leaving Sn in the metallic state. TPD experiments on 2 ML Pt/TiO2 with increasing coverages of Sn show that the number of adsorption sites for D2 sharply decreases to nearly zero at 0.5 ML, while CO adsorption decreases to zero only at much higher Sn coverages of 2 ML. DFT studies for Sn modified Pt surfaces and bulk structures demonstrate that for CO adsorption at low Sn coverages (<0.25 ML), the strong Pt-CO interactions induce diffusion of Pt to the cluster surface and the formation of a bulk Pt3Sn alloy, whereas D2 adsorption does not lead to interactions with the Pt surface that are strong enough to induce alloy formation. A single Sn adatom prevents D2 adsorption on four neighboring Pt atoms via site-blocking and the donation of electron density to Pt.

Kinetically Controlled Formation of Semi-crystalline Conjugated Polymer Nanostructures

Conjugated polymer (CP) materials that are considered as an attractive choice for various electronic and optoelectronic applications possess highly heterogeneous complex structures that can span several orders of magnitude in length scale. This is due to the intricate coupling effects of weak secondary interactions and entropic forces that determine molecular organization in bulk polymer materials. Understanding the influence of molecular interactions on the emergence and evolution of nano- and microscale structures is of paramount importance to the guided design and development of condensed CP materials. Such understanding is even more critical for the rational design of hierarchical systems away from equilibrium, where weak molecular interactions can guide the system along competing kinetic pathways toward local energy minima and metastable architectures. In this work, we studied a promising concept for accessing various kinetically stabilized semi-crystalline CP nanostructures that are formed in the process of controlled chain-growth Kumada catalyst-transfer polymerization initiated by a small-molecule catalytic species which can exist in equilibrium between free and aggregated states. Specifically, we chose a small-molecule perylenedicarboximide (PDCI) polymerization catalytic initiator which has a strong tendency toward reversible supramolecular assembly–disassembly that can be controlled by temperature. Addition of a thiophene monomer to a solution of the PDCI initiator starts the chain-growth polymerization process, which produces distinct nanoscale semi-crystalline polythiophene structures formed under predominant kinetic control. Furthermore, we demonstrated that, depending on the reaction temperature (which affects the fine balance between the position of PDCI assembly–disassembly equilibrium, rate of polymerization, and solvent–solute interactions for the growing polythiophene chains), a range of kinetically trapped hierarchically organized semi-crystalline CP systems with substantially varying optoelectronic properties could be obtained. In addition to spectroscopic and electron microscopic studies, in order to better reveal the structural aspects of the generated polymer nanoscale systems, we carried out a series of X-ray diffraction and neutron scattering experiments which indicated complex hierarchical organization in these kinetically stabilized CP assembled materials. We expect that this in situ polymerization-based approach can lead to a general way to expand access to various semi-crystalline CP nanostructured materials with broadly tunable electronic and optical properties.

Ag Intercalation in Layered Cs 3 Bi 2 Br 9 Perovskite for Enhanced Light Emission with Bound Interlayer Excitons

Cesium bismuth bromide (CBB) has garnered considerable attention as a vacancy-ordered layered perovskite with notable optoelectronic applications. However, its use as a light source has been limited due to its weak photoluminescence (PL). Here, we demonstrate metal intercalation as a novel approach to engineer the room-temperature PL of CBB using experimental and computational methods. Ag, when introduced into CBB, occupies vacant sites in the spacer region, forming octahedral coordination with surrounding Br anions. First-principles density functional theory calculations reveal that intercalated Ag represents the most energetically stable Ag species compared to other potential forms, such as Ag substituting Bi. The intercalated Ag forms a strong polaronic trap state close to the conduction band minimum and quickly captures photoexcited electrons with holes remaining in CBB layers, leading to the formation of a bound interlayer exciton, or BIE. The radiative recombination of this BIE exhibits bright room-temperature PL at 600 nm and a decay time of 38.6 ns, 35 times greater than that of free excitons, originating from the spatial separation of photocarriers by half a unit cell separation distance. The BIE as a new form of interlayer exciton is expected to inspire new research directions for vacancy-ordered perovskites.

The frequency and sizes of inner bars and nuclear rings in barred galaxies and their dependence on galaxy properties

ABSTRACT Using a volume- and mass-limited (D < 30 Mpc, $\log \, (M_{\star }/M_{\odot })\ge 9.75$) sample of 155 barred S0–Sd galaxies, I determine the fraction with secondary structures within their bars. Some 20 ± 3 per cent have a separate inner bar, making them double-barred; an identical fraction have nuclear rings, with $11^{+3}_{-2}$ per cent hosting both. The inner-bar frequency is a strong, monotonic function of stellar mass: only $4^{+3}_{-2}$ per cent of barred galaxies with $\log \, (M_{\star }/M_{\odot })= 9.75$–10.25 are double-barred, while 47 ± 8 per cent of those with $\log \, (M_{\star }/M_{\odot })\gt 10.5$ are. The nuclear-ring frequency is a strong function of absolute bar size: only $1^{+2}_{-1}$ per cent of bars with semimajor axes <2 kpc have nuclear rings, while $39^{+6}_{-5}$ per cent of larger bars do. Both inner bars and nuclear rings are absent in very late-type (Scd–Sd) galaxies. Inner bar size correlates with galaxy stellar mass, but is clearly offset to smaller sizes from the main population of bars. This makes it possible to define ‘nuclear bars’ in a consistent fashion, based on stellar mass. There are eight single-barred galaxies where the bars are nuclear-bar-sized; some of these may be systems where an outer bar failed to form, or previously double-barred galaxies where the outer bar has dissolved. Inner bar size is even more tightly correlated with host bar size, which is likely the primary driver. In contrast, nuclear ring size is only weakly correlated with galaxy mass or bar size, with more scatter in size than is true of inner bars.

Collective dynamics and defect generation for Wigner crystal ratchets

Here we consider a two-dimensional Wigner crystal coupled to a quasi-one-dimensional asymmetric potential under ac or dc driving. As a function of electron density, substrate strength, and ac amplitude, we find that the system exhibits ordered and disordered pinned and dynamical states. Ratchet effects can appear under an applied ac drive and can be associated with pronounced structural changes from a disordered state to a one-dimensional smecticlike state. We observe a pinned phase, a diodelike ratchet where motion only occurs along the easy direction of the substrate asymmetry, a plastic ratchet where motion occurs in both directions but there is only a net drift in the easy direction, and an elastic ratchet where the system forms a crystal without plastic deformation that can still undergo ratcheting. At high filling, we find that there can be a ratchet reversal in which the net drift is along the hard direction of the substrate asymmetry. For weak disorder, there is an Aubry transition to a floating phase where the ratchet effects are lost. We map out the different dynamical phases as a function of substrate strength, filling, ac amplitude, and ac frequency. The ratchet effect on strong substrates is enhanced by thermal fluctuations, but is destroyed when the fluctuations become too large. Based on our results, we suggest other ways to detect Wigner crystals as well as methods for creating different types of devices to control disordered charge flow.

Quasifragmentation functions in the massive Schwinger model

We introduce the concept of the quark quasifragmentation function (qFF) using an equal-time and spatially boosted form of the Collins-Soper fragmentation function where the out-meson fragment is replaced by the current asymptotic condition. We derive the qFF for a fermion in two-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (QED2) using the Kogut-Susskind Hamiltonian after a mapping onto spin qubits in a spatial lattice with open boundary conditions. This form is suitable for quantum computations. We compute the qFF by exact diagonalization of the spin Hamiltonian. The results are compared to the qFF following from the Drell-Levy-Yan result for QED2, both at strong and weak coupling, and to two-dimensional quantum chromodynamics in the lowest Fock approximation.

Self-assembled nanocolumns in Bi 2 Se 3 grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Layered van der Waals (vdW) materials grown by physical vapor deposition techniques are generally assumed to have a weak interaction with the substrate during growth. This leads to films with relatively small domains that are usually triangular and a terraced morphology. In this paper, we demonstrate that Bi 2 Se 3 , a prototypical vdW material, will form a nano-column morphology when grown on GaAs(001) substrates. This morphology is explained by a relatively strong film/substrate interaction, long adatom diffusion lengths, and a high reactive selenium flux. In conclusion, this discovery paves the way toward growth of self-assembled vdW structures even in the absence of strain.

Upward propagation of gigantic jets revealed by 3D radio and optical mapping

Occasionally, lightning will exit the top of a thunderstorm and connect to the lower edge of space, forming a gigantic jet. Here, we report on observations of a negative gigantic jet that transferred an extraordinary amount of charge between the troposphere and ionosphere (~300 C). It occurred in unusual circumstances, emerging from an area of weak convection. As the discharge ascended from the cloud top, tens of very high frequency (VHF) radio sources were detected from 22 to 45 km altitude, while simultaneous optical emissions (777.4 nm OI emitted from lightning leaders) remained near cloud top (15 to 20 km altitude). This implies that the high-altitude VHF sources were produced by streamers and the streamer discharge activity can extend all the way from near cloud top to the ionosphere. The simultaneous three-dimensional radio and optical data indicate that VHF lightning networks detect emissions from streamer corona rather than the leader channel, which has broad implications to lightning physics beyond that of gigantic jets.

The environmental dependence of the stellar mass of active galactic nucleus host galaxies and dependence of the clustering properties of active galactic nucleus host galaxies on the stellar mass

Abstract We used two volume‐limited active galactic nucleus (AGN) host galaxy samples constructed by Deng & Wen (2020, RMxAA , 56, 87), and explored the environmental dependence of the stellar mass of AGN host galaxies. In the luminous volume‐limited AGN host galaxy sample, the stellar mass of AGN host galaxies apparently depends on local environments: high mass AGN host galaxies exist preferentially in the dense regions of the universe, while low mass AGN host galaxies are located preferentially in low density regions. But in the faint volume‐limited AGN host galaxy sample, this dependence is fairly weak. We also examined the dependence of the clustering properties of AGN host galaxies on the stellar mass by cluster analysis, and found that in the luminous volume‐limited AGN host galaxy sample, low mass AGN host galaxies preferentially form isolated galaxies, close pairs, and small groups, while high mass AGN host galaxies preferentially inhabit the dense groups and clusters. A substantial dependence of the clustering properties of AGN host galaxies on the stellar mass is also observed in the faint volume‐limited AGN host galaxy sample, which is inconsistent with the environmental dependence of the stellar mass of AGN host galaxies in the faint volume‐limited AGN host galaxy sample. This is likely due to the galaxy number of the faint volume‐limited AGN host galaxy sample being too small to ensure an ideal statistical analysis.

Controlling Tautomerization in Pyridine-Fused Phosphorus-Nitrogen Heterocycles

Inclusion of a second nitrogen atom in the aromatic core of phosphorus-nitrogen (PN) heterocycles results in unexpected tautomerization to a nonaromatic form. This tautomerization, initially observed in the solid state through X-ray crystallography, is also explained by computational analysis. We prepared an electron deficient analogue (2 e) with a fluorine on the pyridine ring and showed that the weakly basic pyridine resisted tautomerization, providing key insights to why the transformation occurs. To study the difference in solution vs. solid-state heterocycles, alkylated analogues that lock in the quinoidal tautomer were synthesized and their different 1 H NMR and UV/Vis spectra studied. Ultimately, we determined that all heterocycles are the aromatic tautomer in solution and all but 2 e switch to the quinoidal tautomer in the solid state. Better understanding of this transformation and under what circumstances it occurs suggest future use in a switchable on/off hydrogen-bond-directed receptor that can be tuned for complementary hydrogen bonding.

Multi-catalytic active site biochar-based catalysts for glucose isomerized to fructose: Experiments and density functional theory study

In this study, this work provides an innovative method for preparing different isomerization catalysts by impregnating different proportions of MgCl 2 and AlCl 3 and combining different K compounds on cellulose-derived biochar, followed by pyrolysis. Results show MgO and Al(OH) 3 existing in 4 Mg- 1 Al-C catalyst can obtain better catalytic effect on glucose isomerization than the singe of Al presenting in 0 Mg- 1 Al-C catalyst. Moreover, the synergism effects of the multi-catalytic active sites such as β-, γ -Al(OH) 3 , KCl, MgO, and K 4 H 2 (CO 3 ) 3 in Mg-Al-KHCO 3 -C catalyst can further lead to an increase in glucose isomerization, compared to the 4 Mg- 1 Al-C catalyst. The X-ray diffraction results present that the value of O/Al in Mg-Al-KHCO 3 -C catalyst is as high as 13.38, which provides many unsaturated acidic catalysis sites and benefits the glucose isomerization. Simultaneously, the TPD results reveal that the main active sites (MgO, Al(OH) 3 , and K 4 H 2 (CO 3 ) 3 ) in Mg-Al-KHCO 3 -C catalyst can provide weakly acidic and basic sites and avoid strongly acidic and basic sites to excessively attack the glucose. Based on the DFT analysis, the results indicate that the MgO has a great effect on the ring-opening reaction to form acyclic glucose, while Al(OH) 3+ has a great effect on promoting acyclic glucose hydrogen transfer isomerized to form fructose. Compared to other carbon-based metal catalysts, the prepared Mg-Al-KHCO 3 -C has excellent catalytic performance, which gives a higher fructose yield (38.7%) and selectivity (87.72%) and glucose conversion (44.12%) at 100 °C in 30 min. In this study, we develop a highly efficient Mg-Al-K-biochar catalyst for glucose isomerization and provide an efficient method for cellulose valorization.

Layered topological semimetal GaGeTe: New polytype with non-centrosymmetric structure

GaGeTe is a layered van der Waals material composed of germanene and GaTe sublayers that has been recently predicted to be a basic Z 2 topological semimetal. To date, only one polytype of GaGeTe is known with trigonal centrosymmetric structure (α phase, space group R-3m, No. 166). Here we show that as-grown samples of GaGeTe show traces of at least another polytype with hexagonal non-centrosymmetric structure (β phase, space group P6 3 mc, No. 186). Moreover, we suggest that another bulk hexagonal polytype (γ phase, space group P-3m1, No. 164) could also be found near room conditions. Both α and β polytypes have been identified and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering measurements with the support of ab initio calculations. We provide the vibrational properties of both polytypes and show that the Raman spectrum reported for GaGeTe almost forty years ago and attributed to the α phase, was, in fact, that of the secondary β phase. Additionally, we show that a Fermi resonance occurs in α-GaGeTe under non-resonant excitation conditions, but not under resonant excitation conditions. Theoretical calculations show that bulk β-GaGeTe is a non-centrosymmetric weak topological semimetal with even smaller lattice thermal conductivity than centrosymmetric bulk α-GaGeTe. In perspective, our work paves the way for the control and engineering of GaGeTe polytypes to design and implement complex van der Waals heterostructures formed by a combination of centrosymmetric and non-centrosymmetric layers of up to three different polytypes in a single material, suitable for a number of fundamental studies and technological applications.

Oxyanion Surface Complexes Control the Kinetics and Pathway of Ferrihydrite Transformation to Goethite and Hematite

The rate and pathway of ferrihydrite (Fh) transformation at oxic conditions to more stable products is controlled largely by temperature, pH, and the presence of other ions in the system such as nitrate (NO 3 - ), sulfate (SO 4 2- ), and arsenate (AsO 4 3- ). Although the mechanism of Fh transformation and oxyanion complexation have been separately studied, the effect of surface complex type and strength on the rate and pathway remains only partly understood. We have developed a kinetic model that describes the effects of surface complex type and strength on Fh transformation to goethite (Gt) and hematite (Hm). Two sets of oxyanion-adsorbed Fh samples were prepared, nonbuffered and buffered, aged at 70 ± 1.5 °C, and then characterized using synchrotron X-ray scattering methods and wet chemical analysis. Kinetic modeling showed a significant decrease in the rate of Fh transformation for oxyanion surface complexes dominated by strong inner-sphere (SO 4 2- and AsO 4 3- ) versus weak outer-sphere (NO 3 - ) bonding and the control. The results also showed that the Fh transformation pathway is influenced by the type of surface complex such that with increasing strength of bonding, a smaller fraction of Gt forms compared with Hm. In conclusion, these findings are important for understanding and predicting the role of Fh in controlling the transport and fate of metal and metalloid oxyanions in natural and applied systems.

Unraveling the Early-Stage Ordering of Krypton Solid Bubbles in Molybdenum: A Multimodal Study

Self-organization of defects such as fission gas bubbles in materials can lead to high inventory capacity for fission gas storage and help mitigate swelling caused by fission gases in nuclear fuel materials under radiation in nuclear reactors. Here, we report the physical mechanism of self-organization of krypton (Kr) gas bubbles in molybdenum (Mo) under ion implantation. The ion fluence and temperature-dependent formation of Kr solid bubble superlattice (SBS) in Mo were investigated by using both synchrotron-based small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Early stage self-organization of gas bubbles is observed at a fluence of 2.5 × 10 16 ions/cm 2 at temperatures of 300–400 °C. The bubble lattice constant increases with increasing implantation temperature from 300 to 400 °C. Both experiments and atomic kinetic Monte Carlo modeling indicate that the Kr solid bubbles are weakly ordered in comparison to previously studied helium (He) gas bubble superlattice (GBS) while the lattice constant are relatively smaller for Kr SBS compared to that of He GBS. The irradiation conditions suggest that spinodal decomposition, which is a form of phase separation, probably precedes gas bubble ordering in Mo. Altogether, our work sheds light on the formation mechanism of noble gas superlattice toward the development of radiation-tolerant materials which are important for the design of advanced nuclear reactors.

Spinon continuum in the Heisenberg quantum chain compound Sr 2 ⁢V 3 ⁢O 9

Magnetic excitations in the spin chain candidate Sr 2 ⁢V 3 ⁢O 9 have been investigated by inelastic neutron scattering on a single crystal sample. A spinon continuum with a bandwidth of ~22 meV is observed along the chain formed by alternating magnetic V 4+ and nonmagnetic V 5+ ions, which reveals the importance of the orbital degree of freedom in determining the chain axis as identified by prior electronic structure calculations. Incipient magnetic Bragg peaks due to weak ferromagnetic interchain couplings emerge when approaching the magnetic transition at T N ~ 5.3 K, while the excitations remain gapless within the instrumental resolution. Comparisons to the Bethe ansatz, density matrix renormalization group calculations, and effective field theories confirm Sr 2 ⁢V 3 ⁢O 9 as a host of weakly coupled S = 1/2 chains dominated by antiferromagnetic intrachain interactions of ~7.1(1) meV.

Effects of soil particles and convective transport on dispersion and aggregation of nanoplastics via small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and ultra SANS (USANS)

Terrestrial nanoplastics (NPs) pose a serious threat to agricultural food production systems due to the potential harm of soil-born micro- and macroorganisms that promote soil fertility and ability of NPs to adsorb onto and penetrate into vegetables and other crops. Very little is known about the dispersion, fate and transport of NPs in soils. This is because of the challenges of analyzing terrestrial NPs by conventional microscopic techniques due to the low concentrations of NPs and absence of optical transparency in these systems. Herein, we investigate the potential utility of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and Ultra SANS (USANS) to probe the agglomeration behavior of NPs prepared from polybutyrate adipate terephthalate, a prominent biodegradable plastic used in agricultural mulching, in the presence of vermiculite, an artificial soil. SANS with the contrast matching technique was used to study the aggregation of NPs co-dispersed with vermiculite in aqueous media. We determined the contrast match point for vermiculite was 66% D 2 O / 33% H 2 O. At this condition, the signal for vermiculite was ~50–100%-fold lower that obtained using neat H 2 O or D 2 O as solvent. According to SANS and USANS, smaller-sized NPs (50 nm) remained dispersed in water and did not undergo size reduction or self-agglomeration, nor formed agglomerates with vermiculite. Larger-sized NPs (300–1000 nm) formed self-agglomerates and agglomerates with vermiculite, demonstrating their significant adhesion with soil. However, employment of convective transport (simulated by ex situ stirring of the slurries prior to SANS and USANS analyses) reduced the self-agglomeration, demonstrating weak NP-NP interactions. Convective transport also led to size reduction of the larger-sized NPs. Therefore, this study demonstrates the potential utility of SANS and USANS with contrast matching technique for investigating behavior of terrestrial NPs in complex soil systems.

Multiplication of freestanding III-V semiconductor membranes from a single wafer by alternating growth with amorphous graphene interlayer

Freestanding single-crystalline III-V compound semiconductors are important building blocks for functional devices due to their high electron mobilities, a wide range of bandgaps, and excellent optoelectronic properties. Despite efforts to produce such membranes by detaching epitaxial layers from donor wafers, current methods suffer from either slow processes or poor material quality. Here, we demonstrate a technique to grow and harvest multiple epitaxial membranes with extremely high throughput at the wafer scale. For this, a process to directly grow amorphous graphene on III-V substrates in metal-organic chemical vapor deposition reactors is developed, which enables an advanced remote epitaxy scheme comprised of multiple alternating layers of amorphous graphene and III-V epitaxial layers that can be formed by a single epitaxy run. Each epilayer in the multi-stack structure is then harvested by layer-by-layer peeling, producing multiple freestanding membranes with unprecedented throughput from a single wafer. Because amorphous graphene provides a weak van der Waals interface that allows peeling at the interface without damaging the epilayer or the substrate, wafers can be reused for subsequent membrane production. Therefore, this work represents a meaningful step toward high-throughput and low-cost production of single-crystal membranes that can be heterointegrated.
