This paper adopts a Bayesian method with the truncation errors to globally fit eight next-to-leading order (NLO) LECs <i>L</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> and next-to-next-leading order (NNLO) LECs <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span>. With the estimation of the truncation errors, the fitting results of <i>L</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> in the NLO and NNLO are very close. The posterior distributions of <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> indicate the boundary-dependent relations of these <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span>. Ten <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> are weakly dependent on the boundaries and their values are reliable. The other <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> are required more experimental data to constrain their boundaries. Some linear combinations of <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> are also fitted with more reliable posterior distributions. If one knows some more precise values of <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span>, some other <i>C</i><span>\u0000 ^<i>r</i>_<i>i</i>\u0000 \u0000 </span> can be obtained by these values. With these fitting LECs, most observables provide a good convergence, except for the <i>πK</i> scattering lengths <i>a</i><span>\u0000 ^3/2₀\u0000 \u0000 </span> and <i>a</i><span>\u0000 ^1/2₀\u0000 \u0000 </span>. An example is also introduced to test the improvement of the method. All the computations indicate that considering the truncation errors can improve the global fit greatly, and more prior information can obtain better fitting results. This fitting method can be extended to the other effective field theories and the perturbation theory.\u0000</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":573,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of Physics","volume":"19 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11467-024-1430-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142190174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the monoclinic phase CrI₃ with interlayer antiferromagnetism, finding a static and robust way of realizing the intrinsic interlayer ferromagnetic coupling is desirable. In this work, we study the electronic structure and magnetic properties of the nonmagnetic element (e.g., O, S, Se, N, P, As, and C) doped bi-and triple-layer CrI₃ systems via first-principles calculations. Our results demonstrate that O, P, S, As, and Se doped CrI₃ bilayer can realize interlayer ferromagnetism. Further analysis shows that the interlayer ferromagnetic coupling in the doped few-layer CrI₃ is closely related to the formation of localized spinpolarized state around the doped elements. Further study presents that, for As-doped tri-layer CrI₃, it can realize interlayer ferromagnetic coupling. This work proves that nonmagnetic element doping can realize the interlayer ferromagnetically-coupled few-layer CrI₃ while maintaining its semiconducting characteristics without introducing additional carriers.\u0000</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":573,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of Physics","volume":"19 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11467-024-1435-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141923463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These models exhibit quasi-particle-like excitations when <i>g</i> = <i>J</i>₂/<i>J</i>₁ is weak, characterized by low-energy magnons, intermediate-energy doublons, and high-energy quartons. The low-energy magnons are associated with the magnetic ground states. They can be described by the linear spin wave theory (LSWT) of the effective block spin model and the original spin model. Doublons and quartons emerge from the corresponding internal excitations of the trimers with distinct energy levels, which can be effectively analyzed using perturbative calculation when the ratio of exchange interactions <i>g</i> is weak. In this weak <i>g</i> regime, we observe a clear separation between the magnon and higher-energy spectra. As <i>g</i> increases, doublon and quarton gradually merge into the magnon modes or some continua. Notably, in the Collinear II and trimerized Hexagon lattice, a broad continuum emerges above the single-magnon spectrum, originating from the quasi-1D physics due to the dilute connections between chains. In addition, we also compare our numerical results to the experimental RIXS spectrum and analyze the difference. Our numerical analysis of these 2D trimers yields valuable theoretical predictions and explanations for the inelastic neutron scattering (INS) spectra of 2D magnetic materials featuring trimerized lattices.</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":573,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of Physics","volume":"19 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141780310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The AFM, Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence are used for characterization of the samples. Applying THz time-domain spectroscopy (TDS), in combination with polarization test and the presence of magnetic field in Faraday geometry, THz MO transmissions through the sample are measured from 0 to 8 T at 80 K.

Through fitting the experimental results with theoretical formula of MO conductivities for an electron gas, generalized by us previously through the inclusion of photon-induced electronic backscattering effect, we are able to determine magneto-optically the key electronic parameters of BL MoS₂, such as the electron density <i>n</i>_<i>e</i>, the electronic relaxation time <i>τ</i>, the electronic localization factor <i>c</i> and, particularly, the effective electron mass <i>m*</i> around <i>Q</i>-point in between the <i>K</i>- and Γ-point in the electronic band structure.

These systems consist of homogeneous metal nitride multilayers sandwiched between two SiN surfaces, which extends the septuple-atomic-layer MSi₂N₄ system to ultra-thick MSi₂N₄(MN)_<i>n</i> forms. In this paper, we perform a first-principles study on the MoSi₂N₄(FeN) monolayer, which is constructed by iron molybdenum nitride intercalated into the SiN layers. As a cousin of MoSi₂N₄(MoN), this double transition-metal system exhibits robust structural stability from the energetic, mechanical, dynamical and thermal perspectives. Different from the MoSi₂N₄(MoN) one, the MoSi₂N₄(FeN) monolayer possesses intrinsic ferromagnetism and presents a bipolar magnetic semiconducting behaviour. The ferromagnetism can be further enhanced by the surface hydrogenation, which raises the Curie temperature to 310 K around room temperature. More interestingly, the hydrogenated MoSi₂N₄(FeN) monolayer exhibits a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulating behaviour with a sizeable nontrivial band gap of 0.23 eV. The nontrivial topological character can be well described by a two-band <i>k · p</i> model, confirming a non-zero Chern number of <i>C</i> = 1. Similar bipolar magnetic semiconducting feature and hydrogenation-induced QAH state are also present in the WSi₂N₄(FeN) monolayer.
