Unconventional Anomalous Hall Effect in Hexagonal Polar Magnet Y 3 Co 8 Sn 4

A rare realization of unconventional anomalous Hall effect (UAHE) both below and above the magnetic transition temperature (T C ) in a hexagonal noncentrosymmetric magnet Y 3 Co 8 Sn 4 , using a combined experimental and ab initio calculations. Occurrence of such UAHE is mainly attributed to the reciprocal ($\mathscr{KS}$) topology (i.e., the presence of topological Weyl points at/near the Fermi level), along with some contribution from the topological magnetic texture (at low temperatures), as inferred from the measured field-dependent ac susceptibility. The effect of UAHE on the measured transport behavior however evolves differently with temperature above and below T C = 53 K, suggesting different physical mechanism responsible in the two phases. A unique planar ferrimagnetic ordering is found to be the most stable state with ab-plane as the easy plane below T C . The simulated net magnetization and the moment per Co atom agrees fairly well with the experimentally measured values. A reasonably large anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) is also observed in both the phases (above and below T C ) of the present compound, which is again not so ubiquitous. In conclusion, the results underscore the family of R 3 Co 8 Sn 4 (R = rare earth) polar magnets as a compelling backdrop for exploring the synergy of magnetism and topological non-trivial electronic states, pivotal for spintronic applications.

La 4 Co 4 X ( X = Pb , Bi , Sb ) : A demonstration of antagonistic pairs as a route to quasi-low-dimensional ternary compounds

We outline how pairs of strongly immiscible elements, referred to here as antagonistic pairs, can be used to synthesize ternary compounds with low or quasi-reduced-dimensional motifs intrinsically built into their crystal structures. By identifying third elements that are mutually compatible with a given antagonistic pair, ternary compounds can be formed in which the third element segregates the immiscible atoms into spatially separated substructures. Quasi-low-dimensional structural units, such as sheets, chains, or clusters are a natural consequence of the immiscible atoms seeking to avoid close contact in the solid state. Further, as proof of principle, we present the discovery, crystal growth, and basic physical properties of La 4 ⁢Co 4 ⁢$\mathrm{X}$ (X = Pb, Bi, Sb), a family of intermetallic compounds based on the antagonistic pairs Co-Pb and Co-Bi. La 4 ⁢Co 4 ⁢$\mathrm{X}$ adopts an orthorhombic crystal structure (space group Pbam) containing quasi-two-dimensional Co slabs and La-X polyhedra that stack in an alternating manner along the α axis. Consistent with our proposal, the La atoms separate the Co and X substructures, ensuring there are no direct contacts between the members of the immiscible (antagonistic) pair. Within the Co slabs, the atoms occupy the vertices of corner sharing tetrahedra and triangles, and this bonding motif produces narrow electronic bands near the Fermi level that favor magnetism. The Co is moment bearing in each La 4 ⁢Co 4 $\mathrm{X}$ compound studied, and we show that whereas La 4 ⁢Co 4 ⁢Pb behaves as a three-dimensional antiferromagnet with T N =220K, La 4 ⁢Co 4 ⁢Bi and La 4⁢ Co 4 ⁢Sb have behavior consistent with low-dimensional magnetic coupling and ordering, with T N =153K and 143 K, respectively. In addition to the Pb-, Bi-, and Sb-based La 4 ⁢Co 4 ⁢$\mathrm{X}$ compounds, we also were likely able to produce an analogous La 4 ⁢Co 4 ⁢Sn in polycrystalline form, although we were unable to isolate single crystals. We anticipate that identifying and using mutually compatible third elements together with an antagonistic pair represents a generalizable design principle for discovering new materials and new structure types containing low-dimensional substructures.

Electronic correlations and flattened band in magnetic Weyl semimetal candidate Co 3 Sn 2 S 2

The interplay between electronic correlations and topological protection may offer a rich avenue for discovering emergent quantum phenomena in condensed matter. However, electronic correlations have so far been little investigated in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) by experiments. Here, we report a combined optical spectroscopy and theoretical calculation study on the strength and effect of electronic correlations in a magnet Co 3 Sn 2 S 2 . The electronic kinetic energy estimated from our optical data is about half of that obtained from single-particle ab initio calculations in the ferromagnetic ground state, which indicates intermediate-strength electronic correlations in this system. Furthermore, comparing the energy and side-slope ratios between the interband-transition peaks at high energies in the experimental and single-particle-calculation-derived optical conductivity spectra with the bandwidth-renormalization factors obtained by many-body calculations enables us to estimate the Coulomb-interaction strength (U ~ 4 eV) in Co 3 Sn 2 S 2 . Besides, a sharp experimental optical conductivity peak at low energy, which is absent in the single-particle-calculation-derived spectrum but is consistent with the optical conductivity peaks obtained by many-body calculations with U ~ 4 eV, indicates that an electronic band connecting the two Weyl cones is flattened by electronic correlations and emerges near the Fermi energy in Co 3 Sn 2 S 2 . Our work paves the way for exploring flat-band-generated quantum phenomena in WSMs.

Advancing the Performance of Lithium-Rich Oxides in Concert with Inherent Complexities: Domain-Selective Substitutions

Historically, modifications to Li- and Mn-rich (LMR) cathodes have been studied in relation to their efficacy in solving challenges such as oxygen loss and voltage fade, which are inherent to the activation process of these electrodes. However, even in the presence of these phenomena, well-optimized LMR cathodes show considerable promise as earth-abundant options, particularly if other barriers to implementation can be overcome or mitigated. As the complex mechanisms of LMR electrodes are known to stem from the local, chemical inhomogeneities that define the nanocomposite domain nature of these oxides, strategies aimed at manipulating the performance of activated electrodes, irrespective of voltage fade, through domain-selective modifications, could prove instructive. In this work, we use a novel synthesis process aimed at influencing the site occupancy of substituted Sn 4+ , as an example 4+ cation, into a Co-free Li 1.13 Mn 0.57(1–x) Sn 0.57x Ni 0.3 O 2 LMR oxide. We show that Sn 4+ can be selectively substituted into Li-rich environments. The consequences are revealed to be both chemical and morphological, and the domain-selective doping strategy provides a knob for directed control of the low state-of-charge impedance behavior. In conclusion, these results reveal new clues and insights with respect to further advancing the practical relevance of LMR cathode particles and electrodes.
