Sulfidation and selenidation of nickel nanoparticles

Abstract Transition metal chalcogenide nanoparticles (NPs) are of interest for energy applications, including batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. Many methods have been established for synthesizing Ni NPs, and conversion chemistry to form Ni oxide and phosphides from template Ni NPs is well‐understood. Sulfidation and selenidation of Ni NPs have been much less explored, however. We report a method for the conversion of Ni template NPs into sulfide and selenide product NPs using elemental sulfur, 1‐hexadecanthiol, thiourea, trioctylphosphine sulfide, elemental selenium, and selenourea. While maintaining mole ratios of 2 mmol sulfur/selenium precursor: mmol Ni, products with phases of Ni 3 S 2 , Ni 9 S 8 , NiS, NiSO 4 ·6H 2 O, Ni 3 S 4 , Ni 3 Se 2 , and NiSe have been obtained. The products have voids that form through the Kirkendall effect during interdiffusion. Trends relating the chemical properties of the precursors to the phases of the products have been identified. While some precursors contained phosphorus, there was no significant incorporation of phosphorus in any of the products. An increase of the NP size during sulfidation and selenidation is consistent with ripening. The application of Ni sulfide and selenide NPs as electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction is also demonstrated.

Quantum chaos and unitary black hole evaporation

The formation and evaporation of small AdS black holes in a theory with a holographic dual is governed by the usual rules of quantum mechanics. The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis explains the validity of semiclassical gravity for local bulk observables and can be used to quantify the magnitude of quantum corrections to the semi-classical approximation. The holographic dual produces a basis of black hole states with finite energy width, and observables that are smooth functions on the classical phase space will self-average over a large number of energy eigenstates, exponential in the Bekenstein-Hawking entropyS, leading to results that are consistent with semiclassical gravity up to small corrections of order e –S/2 . As expected, the semiclassical description breaks down for transition amplitudes that reflect the unitary evolution of the holographic theory.

In situ synchrotron investigation of degenerate graphite nodule evolution in ductile cast iron

Ductile cast irons (DCIs) are of increasing importance in the renewable energy and transportation sectors. The distribution and morphology of the graphite nodules, in particular the formation of degenerate features during solidification, dictate the mechanical performance of DCIs. In situ high-speed synchrotron X-ray tomography was used to capture the evolution of graphite nodules during solidification of DCI, including degenerate features and the effect of the carbon concentration field. The degeneration of nodules is observed to increase with re-melting cycles, which is attributed to Mg-loss. The dendritic primary austenite and carbon concentration gradients in the surrounding liquid phase were found to control nodule morphology by locally restricting and promoting growth. A coupled diffusion-mechanical model was developed, confirming the experimentally informed hypothesis that protrusions form through liquation cracking of the austenite shell and subsequent localised growth. In conclusion, these results provide valuable insights into the solidification kinetics of cast irons, supporting the design of advanced alloys.

Transmission electron microscopy of the rapid solidification microstructure evolution and solidification interface velocity determination in hypereutectic Al-20at.%Cu after laser melting

The evolution of rapid solidification (RS) microstructure and solidification interface velocity has been studied experimentally by in-situ transmission electron microscopy and postmortem characterization for hypereutectic Al-20at.%Cu (37 wt.%Cu) after laser melting. Four morphologically distinct regions formed via growth modes changing from θ-Al 2 Cu phase dendrites to eutectic cell growth, possibly α-Al dendrite growth (α-cell), banded growth, and α-Al plane front growth. Tendency for faceting and low capacity for solute trapping limited the θ-phase dendrite growth to solidification interface velocity v < 0.07 m/s. Consequently, formation of pro-eutectic micro-constituent was suppressed, and RS microstructure formation was dominated by eutectic, α-cell, and banded morphology grains for the Al-20at.%Cu alloy. Eutectic growth operated for interface velocity of 0.1 m/s ≤ v < 0.3 m/s, with a transition from regular lamellar, 2-λ and 1-λ mode to a dense irregular morphology dominated by α-phase at v = 0.3 m/s. Interface temperature calculations indicated feasibility of α-cell growth mode for 0.3 m/s ≤ v < 0.7 m/s. Banded growth occurred for 0.7 m/s ≤ v < 1.3 m/s. Plane front α-phase growth was evident for interface velocities v ≥ 1.3 m/s. Previous work on rapid solidification microstructure development in hypereutectic Al-Cu alloys reported a regime of α-cell growth subsequently to eutectic and prior to transition to banded growth for Al-19at.%Cu (36 wt.%Cu), while for Al-22at.%Cu (40 wt.%Cu) eutectic growth transitioned directly to α-plane front growth without emergence of a banded regime. Finally, based on the current study the disappearance of the banded growth regime occurs for a composition larger than 20at.%Cu.

Numerical study of the chemo-mechanical behavior of FEBEX bentonite in nuclear waste disposal based on the Barcelona expansive model

Experimental studies show that compacted bentonite used as a backfill material for nuclear waste repository experiences strong coupling between chemical and mechanical processes. Here, we use a dual-structure expansive soil model, referred to as the Barcelona Expansive Model (BExM), to predict the behavior of bentonite buffer in subsurface emplacement tunnels for high-level radioactive waste. After emplacement, the bentonite is subjected to complex and coupled Thermal-Hydraulic-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) processes. The BExM constitutive model is implemented in a multi-phase reactive transport and geomechanics simulator, TOUGHREACT-FLAC3D, and the model is verified with one benchmark test on FEBEX bentonite. We utilize a one-way Chemo-Mechanical (C-M) coupling approach, in which chemical changes affect the mechanical behavior of bentonite through the BExM linked with the evolution of mass fraction of smectite, exchangeable cation concentration, and ionic strength via osmotic suction. The parameters of the new coupled model for FEBEX bentonite are calibrated against a series of laboratory experiments with various salinity solutions. Finally, coupled THMC modeling is conducted for a generic argillite repository with bentonite buffer under high temperature, focusing on the long-term chemical change and its effect on the mechanical process.

Electronic structure and magnetism of pristine, defected, and strained $\mathrm{Ti_2N}$ $\mathrm{MX}$ene

Here, from first principles electronic structure calculations, we unravel the evolution of structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of pristine, defected, and strained titanium nitride MXene with different functional groups (-F, -O, -H, and -OH). The formation and cohesive energies reveal their chemical stability. The dynamical stability of Ti 2 N mono-layer is also confirmed by phonon calculations. The MAX phase and defect free functionalized MXenes are metallic except for oxygen terminated (Ti 2 NO 2 ) one which is 100% spin polarized half-metallic ferromagnet. The spin–orbit coupling significantly influences the bare MXene (Ti 2 N) to exhibit Dirac topology and band inversion near the high symmetry directions. The strain effect sways the Fermi level thereby shifting it towards lower energy state under compression and towards higher energy state under tensile strain in Ti 2 NH 2 . The Ti 2 NO 2 exhibits exotic electronic structure not only in pristine but also in strained and defected structures. Its half-metallic nature changes to semi-metallic under 1% compression and it is completely destroyed under 2% compression. In single vacancy defect, its band structure remarkably transforms from half-metallic to semi-conducting with large band gap in 12.5% Ti, weakly semi-conducting in 5.5% Ti, and semi-metallic in 12.5% O. The 25% N defect changes its half-metallic characteristic to metallic. Further, the 12.5% Co substitution preserves its half-metallic character, whereas Mn substitution allows it to convert half-metallic characteristic into weak semi-metallic characteristic preserving ferromagnetism. However, Cr substitution converts half-metallic ferromagnetic state to half-metallic anti-ferromagnetic state. The understanding made here on collective structural stability, and electronic band structure, and magnetic phenomena in novel 2D Ti 2 N derived MXenes open up their possibility in designing them for synthesis.

X-ray Diffraction Studies of Single-Crystal Materials for Broad Battery Applications

Single-crystal materials have attracted growing interest in battery research due to their well-defined crystallographic orientation, absence of grain boundaries, and enhanced mechanical and electrochemical stability. This Review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the synthesis, structural evolution, and performance optimization of single-crystal electrodes and solid electrolytes. Particular focus is placed on the application of advanced X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques, including operando synchrotron diffraction, reciprocal space mapping, and Bragg coherent diffraction imaging, which have enabled in-depth investigations of lattice strain, cation disorder, phase transitions, and defect formation. Representative case studies across Ni-rich layered oxides, spinel-type cathodes, and garnet-based electrolytes are examined to highlight the structural features unique to single crystals. Additionally, the synergistic integration of XRD with machine learning, tomography, and spectroscopy is discussed as a powerful direction for real-time analysis and predictive modeling. Furthermore, these insights provide critical guidance for the rational design of high-performance single-crystal materials in lithium, sodium, and solid-state battery systems.

In situ observation of medium range ordering and crystallization of amorphous TiO 2 ultrathin films grown by atomic layer deposition

The evolution of medium range ordering (MRO) and crystallization behavior of amorphous TiO 2 films grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) were studied using in situ four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy. The films remain fully amorphous when grown at 120 °C or below, but they start showing crystallization of anatase phases when grown at 140 °C or above. The degree of MRO increases as a function of temperature and maximizes at 140 °C when crystallization starts to occur, which suggests that crystallization prerequires the development of nanoscale MRO that serves as the site of nucleation. In situ annealing of amorphous TiO 2 films grown at 80 °C shows enhancement of MRO but limited number of nucleation, which suggests that post-annealing develops only a small portion of MRO into crystal nuclei. The MRO regions that do not develop into crystals undergo structural relaxation instead, which provides insights into the critical size and degree of ordering and the stability of certain MRO types at different temperatures. In addition, crystallographic defects were observed within crystal phases, which likely negate corrosion resistance of the film. Our result highlights the importance of understanding and controlling MRO for optimizing ALD-grown amorphous films for next-generation functional devices and renewable energy applications.

On the very high energy confinement observed in super H-mode DIII-D experiments

Analysis of recent super H-mode experiments on DIII-D shows that high rotation, not high pedestal, plays the essential role in achieving very high confinement H 98y2 >1.5. Very high confinement is reached early on in the H-mode phase of these discharges, when the pedestal is still very low, but after the toroidal rotation has already built-up to very high levels in the core. As the discharge evolves, the rotation drops, and so does the energy confinement, despite a sustained very high-pressure pedestal. During this evolution, the confinement quality is linearly correlated with the core toroidal rotation, which varies according to different levels of injected neutral beam torque per particle. Core transport modeling shows that the contribution from rotation in the E×B shear is responsible for confinement quality significantly in excess of standard H-mode (H 98y2 ~1).

Long-term temporal stability of the DarkSide-50 dark matter detector

The stability of a dark matter detector on the timescale of a few years is a key requirement due to the large exposure needed to achieve a competitive sensitivity. It is especially crucial to enable the detector to potentially detect any annual event rate modulation, an expected dark matter signature. Here, in this work, we present the performance history of the DarkSide-50 dual-phase argon time projection chamber over its almost three-year low-radioactivity argon run. In particular, we focus on the electroluminescence signal that enables sensitivity to sub-keV energy depositions. The stability of the electroluminescence yield is found to be better than 0.5%. Finally, we show the temporal evolution of the observed event rate around the sub-keV region being consistent to the background prediction.

Tunable competing magnetic anisotropies and spin reconfigurations in ferrimagnetic Fe 100– x Gd x alloy films

Here, we report a comprehensive study of the temperature evolution of in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OOP) effective magnetic anisotropies in compensated ferrimagnetic Fe 100– x Gd x alloy films by employing direct current magnetometry and radiofrequency (RF) transverse susceptibility (TS) measurements. We suggest that our Fe 100– x Gd x system is chemically inhomogeneous and phase segregates into Fe- and Gd-enriched regions. Our IP and OOP magnetometry results indicate that the system undergoes a temperature-driven transformation from an IP-spin-configuration-dominated state to an OOP-spin-configuration-dominated state below a certain temperature (spin reorientation temperature). A two-step reversal behavior emerges in the OOP $\textit{M(H)}$ loop near compensation, which we attribute to the sequential magnetization reversals of Fe- and Gd-enriched domains. Field-induced spin-flop transitions were also observed near the compensation. Our RF TS measurements indicate that the effective magnetic anisotropy for the OOP configuration dominates over that for the IP configuration below a certain spin reorientation temperature. Both IP and OOP anisotropy fields determined from our TS measurement exhibit a minimum around the compensation temperature, which has been explained in the framework of the Stoner-Wohlfarth model.

Dynamic control of quantum phases in two-dimensional materials via Floquet engineering

The dynamical engineering of quantum states through periodic optical driving, known as Floquet engineering, has emerged as a powerful frontier in condensed matter physics, offering a pathway to realize material properties inaccessible in static equilibrium. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent theoretical and experimental advances in the optical manipulation of two-dimensional (2D) quantum materials. We begin by systematically reviewing the evolution of the field from its pioneering applications in graphene and twisted moiré superlattices, highlighting the experimental realization of the light-induced anomalous Hall effect (AHE) to the complex spin-valley physics in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Furthermore, we briefly examine recent advances in 2D magnetic materials, demonstrating how optical driving can actively compete with intrinsic magnetism to dynamically switch magnetic orders and topological invariants. Moreover, we discuss the emerging frontiers of multi-frequency driving, quantum optimal control theory (QOCT), and ultrafast lightwave electronics. We highlight how tailored waveforms, such as bicircular light fields, and sub-cycle attosecond control can selectively break spatial symmetries to generate novel nonlinear photocurrents, mitigate dissipation, and extend the boundaries of quantum control well beyond the perturbative steady-state regime. Finally, we summarize the key experimental challenges for Floquet engineering, including effects such as heating and scattering, which limit coherent quantum control.

Density variance dynamics in disparate shock tubes

This report discusses two experiments which investigate thin layer, heavy curtain fragmentation from the perspective of a Reynolds-Averaged mix model, in drastically disparate experimental regimes. The first, the centimeter/millisecond-scale “Horizontal Shock Tube” (HST) is a compressed-gas piston-driven shock tube experiment. The second, the “Multishock thin layer” (Mshock) experiment performed at the National Ignition Facility, is a micrometer/nanosecond-scale laser-driven shock tube experiment. Both are situations in which a heavy plane layer (a ‘curtain’) is initially suspended in a lighter medium. After being shocked from at least one side, the layer translates while its interfaces evolve due to the excitation of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability at its surfaces. The evolution of density variance, which initially exists only on the surface of the layer, as it comes to encompass the whole layer interior is used as a description of layer fragmentation and dissolution. These experiments have each been simulated in the Los Alamos National Laboratory multi-physics code xRAGE, which includes fundamental hydrodynamics, extended plasma physics and radiation effects which are important to drive the high-energy density experiment, and the Besnard-Harlow-Rauenzahn (BHR) turbulence model. In each, the principal diagnostic for comparison is an experimental metric for the density (co)variance, b, which tracks the moments of the density field at the curtain interfaces and body. Due to experimental constraints in different regimes (i.e. optical diagnostics can be deployed on conventional shock tubes, while the plasma shock tubes must be imaged by x-rays; interfaces can be imposed to specification on laser-driven experiments, which are stored in the solid phase, while conventional experiments have imperfect control of the flow fields which separate the layer, etc.) the experiments are not designed to be perfect scaled cognates of one another. However, despite the separation of six orders of magnitude of scaling in time, and four in space, we are able to demonstrate that the same turbulence model, operating in the same fashion in the same computer code, is able to reproduce results in each experiment, by tracking evolution due to common relevant physics. Additionally, we will present preliminary work toward density variance comparisons in a single-interface Richtmyer-Meshkov configuration, the conventional fluid “Vertical Shock Tube” (VST) experiment, and the Modal Initial Conditions (ModCons) campaign fielded at the OMEGA-EP laser facility.

Modeling Approach for the Aluminum-clad Dry Storage Pilot using HFIR Fuel

To confirm that the dry storage of aluminum-clad research reactor spent nuclear fuel (ASNF) will remain within the safety envelope after applied drying schemes and that the resulting evolution of the gas space composition, temperature, and pressure conditions are understood, a dry storage pilot project is being established. The pilot will incorporate an instrumented lid for discrete interval or for on-demand gas composition and temperature monitoring of two DOE Standard Canisters (DSCs) loaded with three High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) inner cores per DSC. Each DSC would be subjected to a separate alternative candidate drying scheme. Canisters will undergo 1 to 5 years of monitoring, including internal temperature and gas sampling to track pressure and composition changes. This report outlines the approach for modeling the ASNF-in-canister behavior in terms of evolving gas space conditions for the ASNF dry storage pilot using HFIR fuel. The ASNF has an adherent surface oxyhydroxide layer comprised of boehmite/bayerite that generates hydrogen when subjected to irradiation. Three-dimensional multi-physics computational fluid dynamics simulations will be executed to compute the thermal field within the DSC and provide inputs to a chemical model employed to compute pressure buildup as hydrogen is generated in the system. Implemented in Cantera, the chemical model solves gas phase and aluminum oxyhydroxide surface-mediated radiolysis reactions. Gas phase reactions are sourced from Wittman and Hanson (2015), whereas surface-mediated reactions are incorporated by fitting experimental data using an optimization algorithm (Abboud, 2023). Water radiolysis reactions from Wren and Ball (2001) are adopted with modifications as described in Abboud (2023c). Understanding the effect of the hydrogen buildup over time is important for long-term storage safety considerations. Modeling results will include the canister pressure, temperature, and composition evolution from the initial helium backfill with the addition of radiolytically-evolved chemical species (e.g., hydrogen and oxygen). The specific HFIR cores for the pilot program have not yet been selected, and the overall design is still in development. The CFD-chemical model used for this work will be based on prior models with necessary updates to allow for improved accuracy and efficiency. The experimental data obtained from the HFIR demonstration will be used to improve and validate the computational models to predict the ASNF-in-canister behavior.

Rapid early gas accretion for the inner Galactic disc: A case for short accretion timescale

Recent observations of the Milky Way and galaxies at high redshifts suggest that galaxy discs were already in place soon after the Big Bang. While the gas infall history of the Milky Way in the inner disc has long been assumed to be characterised by a short accretion timescale, this has not been directly constrained using observations. Using data for the inner regions of the Milky Way recently produced by APOGEE and Gaia and of unprecedented quantity and quality, we aim to derive strong constraints on the infall history of the inner (< 6 kpc) Galaxy (with a focus on stars between 4 and 6 kpc, which we show is an appropriate proxy for the entire inner disc). We implemented gas infall into a chemical evolution model of the Galaxy disc, and used a Schmidt–Kennicutt law to connect the infall to the star formation. We explore a number of models, and two different formulations of the infall law. In one formulation, the infall is non-parametric, and in the other the infall has an explicitly exponential form. We fit the model parameters to the time–[Si/Fe] distribution of solar vicinity stars, and the metallicity and [Si/Fe] distribution function of stars with a galactocentric radius of between 4 and 6 kpc from APOGEE. Our results point to a fast, early gas accretion, and an upper limit on the accretion timescale of around 2 Gyr in the inner disc of the Milky Way. This suggests that at least half the baryons were in place within 2–3 Gyr of the Big Bang, and that half the stars of the inner disc formed within the first 5 Gyr, during the thick disc formation phase. This implies that the stellar mass of the inner disc is dominated by the thick disc, supporting our previous work, and that the gas accretion onto the inner disc was rapid and early.

Strengthening mechanisms, hardening/softening behavior, and microstructure evolution in an LPSO magnesium alloy at elevated temperatures

Here, rapid degradation of the mechanical properties of conventional Mg alloys with temperature precludes their wide application in industry. The LPSO (long period stacking ordered) Mg alloys, on the other hand, show considerable potential to achieve excellent high-temperature mechanical performance. In this study, a Mg-5.1Y-2.4Zn (wt.%) extrusion alloy with the microstructure comprising of α-Mg matrix and LPSO phase was prepared. It is shown that the yield strength of the alloy at 200 °C retained ~83% of the yield strength of 198 MPa at room temperature (RT). Importantly, the ductility also improved, owing to the increased non-basal slip activities at elevated temperatures. In contrast to RT and 200 °C, the alloy exhibited softening tensile behavior with an apparent loss of yield strength at 300 °C. In-situ lattice strain analysis revealed that load transfer from α-Mg to LPSO remains effective at temperatures up to 200 °C, governing the high yield strength of the alloy. The post-mortem analysis by means of electron microscopy confirmed that the LPSO phase is structurally stable at 200 °C. In particular, the high strain hardenability is rationalized by the sandwiched LPSO structures together with stacking faults serving as effective obstacles to the motion of non-basal dislocations. The load transfer effect disappears at the temperature of 300 °C, resulting in the fast deterioration of strength of the alloy. The cracking of the LPSO phase along with the recrystallizing of α-Mg grains were found to be the main causes for the softening behavior of the alloy at 300 °C.

Irradiation induced void spheroidization, shrinkage and migration in Cu at elevated temperatures: An in situ study

We show understanding the void evolution in irradiation environment is of great interest and significance, as irradiation-induced voids typically lead to pronounced volumetric swelling and degradation of mechanical properties. In situ studies on the irradiation response of nanovoids at elevated temperature remain limited. In this work, we performed systematic in situ 1 MeV Kr ++ irradiations on Cu with nanovoids in a transmission electron microscope up to 350 °C. The in situ studies revealed intriguing void spheroidization, shrinkage and migration. Furthermore, the morphology evolution and migration of nanovoids showed a strong dependence on irradiation temperature and initial void size. Post-irradiation analyses identified defect clusters in the form of stacking fault tetrahedrons, and the remaining large faceted nanovoids. The underlying mechanisms of irradiation-induced void spheroidization and shrinkage were discussed based on phase-field modeling.

Catalytic Activity and Water Stability of the MgO(111) Surface for 2-Pentanone Condensation

Nanomaterials derived from earth-abundant metal oxides have gained tremendous interest as catalysts; although, water stability remains a challenge. This study examines MgO(111) surfaces for 2-pentanone condensation and their evolution during D2O hydration. Catalyst screening confirmed the high activity of fresh MgO(111) for 2-pentanone condensation relative to conventionally prepared MgO(100). Computational modeling suggests that the (111) surface is readily hydroxylated, and that surface hydroxyls help stabilize the surface and reduce the barrier for 2-pentanone condensation. Vapor-phase D2O hydration after 3 min increased MgO(111) hydroxyls and retained surface area and activity; however, after 1 h, deuteroxide formation reduced the surface area and activity by >30 %. After 24 h, deuteroxide growth slowed down, and surface area and activity remained stable. This suggests MgO(111)-derived hydroxide may be the dominant surface responsible for 2-pentanone condensation following water exposure. Thermal regeneration of the 24-h sample restored 86 % of the surface area and 94 % of the activity.
