MgAl5/4(Li1/3Ti2/3)3/4O4 ceramics feature a composite spinel structure (Fd-3m space group) comprising MgAl2O4 and Li4Ti5O12 type phases. By substituting Al3+ of MgAl2O4 ceramic with the composite ion (Li1/3Ti2/3)3+, differences in elemental diffusion induced by sintering temperature (1200–1280 °C) significantly affect the microwave dielectric properties: a low εᵣ (11.8) and enhanced microwave properties (Q×f = 79,381 GHz and τf = –28.5×10−6/°C) at 1240 °C. With further optimization of the ceramics, a near-zero τf is realized in 0.93MgAl5/4(Li1/3Ti2/3)3/4O4-0.07CaTiO3 ceramics with excellent comprehensive performance (εr = 14.36, Q×f = 44,144 GHz). Building on this, a multi-band dielectric resonant antenna (DRA) was designed for applications in communication and aeronautical radio navigation, featuring a wide relative bandwidth of 39.37% (5.97–6.49 GHz and 7.19–9.83 GHz). This study presents an optimization strategy for obtaining microwave dielectric ceramics with low εr, high Q×f, excellent frequency-temperature stability, low sintering temperature, and low density.","PeriodicalId":16173,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materiomics","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143872609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most currently used anomaly detection methods are purely data-driven, which has limited capability of learning complicated factors in materials data. Here, we propose a domain knowledge-assisted data anomaly detection (DKA-DAD) workflow, where materials domain knowledge is encoded as symbolic rules. Three detection models are designed for evaluating the correctness of individual descriptor value, correlation between descriptors, and similarity between samples, respectively, and one modification model is constructed for comprehensive governance. We construct 180 synthetic datasets by injecting noise into 60 structured materials datasets collected from materials ML studies, to validate its potential utility and applications. DKA-DAD achieves a 12% F1-score improvement in anomaly detection accuracy on synthetic datasets compared to purely data-driven approach and the ML models trained on materials datasets processed through DKA exhibit an average 9.6% improvement in R2 for the property prediction.

In this work, Mn doping is utilized to modify the defects caused by the excessive Bi compensation in the Sr0.7Bi0.2TiO3 relaxor ferroelectric thin films. Those Mn doped Sr0.7Bi0.2TiO3 thin films exhibits significantly improved recoverable energy storage density by more than one order of magnitude with an ultrahigh energy storage density (126 J/cm3). By analyzing the change of the chemical environment and using the scanning transmission electron microscopy, we reveal these improved energy storage performances arises from the formation of defect dipoles of Mn2+ at B site with oxygen vacancies, suppressing the volume of oxygen vacancies and titanium vacancies simultaneously, and the slush-like “single domain” structure with fluctuated B-site cation displacements stabilized and confined in a single nano-sized crystal grain.

However, challenges such as the high photo-generated charges recombination rate and poor visible light absorption of representative semiconductor gas sensing materials have posed significant issues. To address these challenges, Aurivillius type Bi2WO6 with exceptional visible light absorption was chosen as the model material to explore facet junctions in semiconductor gas sensors for the first time. The experiment successfully achieved the self-construction of facet junctions in Bi2WO6 single crystal microplates, exposing both {001} and {010} facets. It was observed that the facet junction, with an optimal facets proportion, not only controlled gas adsorption but also facilitated the efficient separation of photo-generated charges across the anisotropic facets through surface band bending and internal fields, thus enabling the efficient detection of acetic acid under visible light LED excitation at room temperature. Through first-principle calculations, in-situ infrared spectroscopy and other spectroscopic techniques, the gas sensing mechanism was systematically elucidated. This study offers new insights into enhancing the gas sensing performance of light-excited semiconductor gas sensors through facet junction design. Moreover, it significantly enriches our understanding of the microscopic-scale gas sensing mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":16173,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materiomics","volume":"108 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143846508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, single crystal CIPS is successfully synthesized by the chemical vapour transport method, which presents “high quality” in terms of high purity, excellent crystallinity, uniform composition, and defect-free structure etc. that are confirmed through comprehensive characterization techniques. With performing high-quality single crystal, we fully uncover the intrinsic electric properties of CIPS through accurately identifying the atomic arrangement, electron configuration, magnetic, dielectric, and ferroelectric properties that should reach a consensus on such a disputed CIPS material.

However, the high coercive field (Ec, typically exceeding 1.0 MV/cm) puts forward challenges to high operating voltage and limited endurance performance. To overcome these limitations, a strategy is utilized by applying an in-situ direct current electric field during rapid thermal process (RTP). This approach enables simultaneous reduction of coercive field and enhancement of ferroelectric polarization in Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO). Notably, a record-low Ec (∼0.79 MV/cm) is achieved among atomic layer deposition-grown Zr-doped HfO2 ferroelectric films, facilitating lower operation voltage, faster switching speed, and improved endurance characteristics. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis reveals that the ferroelectric domains in samples through electric field assisted-RTP exhibit a relatively preferential out-of-plane orientation compared to normal RTP-treated samples, which is the underlying mechanism in reducing the coercive field and enhancing ferroelectric polarization. This study introduces a practical and effective method for optimizing the overall performance of HZO films, underscoring their potential for application in non-volatile memory technologies.","PeriodicalId":16173,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materiomics","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143837305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, we reported a theoretical method for 2D metal chalcogenides as catalysts for LOBs using first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We extracted key parameters that affect the overpotential, including Li–X bond energy (X represents chalcogen elements) and catalyst lattice constant, and theoretically predicted the catalytic performance. The DFT calculation results indicate that MoS2 with appropriate Li–X bond energy and lattice constant has the lowest theoretical overpotential, and its cyclic stability should be higher than other materials under the same conditions. Significantly, we experimentally validated the theoretical predictions presented above. The experimental results shows that pure MoS2 with 2H phase can stably work for more than 220 cycles at a current density of 500 mA/g, and the actual overpotential is lower than other metal chalcogenides.
