The calculations indicate that all three types of monolayers can form structurally stable zigzag (ZNR) and armchair (ANR) nanoribbons, which significantly alter the properties of the monolayer films, as shown in Table I. For the zigzag nanoribbons, CrTe2-ZNR transitions from a non-magnetic semiconductor to a ferrimagnetic metal. VTe2-ZNR transforms from a ferromagnetic semiconductor to a ferrimagnetic metal. FeTe2-ZNR mostly maintains the characteristics of the monolayer. For the armchair nanoribbons, CrTe2-ANR exhibits ferrimagnetism. The electrical conductivity is related to the width. CrTe2-ANR with narrow width is semiconducting, while wider ones are metallic. VTe2-ANR displays ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic metallic behavior depending on the width. FeTe2-ANR with widths larger than 11 remains ferromagnetic metal, while with narrow widths are unstable. In addition, the magnetism of all MTe2 monolayer nanoribbons primarily originates from the 3d transition metal atoms. These findings are essential for applications of MTe2 nanoribbons-based low-dimensional spintronic devices.","PeriodicalId":7619,"journal":{"name":"AIP Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

Different types of plasma diffusions are found due to this plasma mixing, and kinetic Alfvén solitary waves (KASWs) are one of them. In this work, a theoretical approach is taken to study the fundamental properties of heavy ion acoustic KASWs (HIAKASWs) in a magnetized plasma system whose constituents are nonextensive q-distributed two temperature electrons with dynamical heavy ions. The perturbations of the magnetized collisionless plasma system are investigated using the reductive perturbation technique to deduce the Korteweg–de Vries (K–DV) and modified K–DV (MK–DV) equations to determine the fundamental characteristics of small, but finite amplitude HIAKASWs. The presence of nonextensive electrons, magnetic field, obliquity angle (the angle between the external magnetic field and wave propagation), plasma particle number densities, and the temperature of various plasma species are observed to significantly alter the fundamental properties of HIAKASWs. The findings of our present study may be useful for comprehending the nonlinear wave properties in diverse interstellar plasma environments.","PeriodicalId":7619,"journal":{"name":"AIP Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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 current–voltage (I–V) characteristics exhibit a sharp switch at a positive threshold voltage around 2 V, transitioning from a high resistance pristine state to a low resistance state, interpreted as the formation of a Cu filament via electrochemical metallization. However, after this forming process, the device remains in the low resistance state and cannot reset to a high resistance state in either polarity of the applied voltage, suggesting the presence of a strong, unbreakable Cu filament after the forming process. What makes this phenomenon anomalous is the observed weak bipolar resistive switching in the cycles following the forming cycle, despite the presence of the Cu filament. The I–V characteristics of forward- and reverse-bias sweeps suggest that the weak bipolar resistive switching results from an additional filament formed in parallel with the existing unbreakable Cu filament. Using a parallel conducting filaments model, the resistivity of this additional filament is calculated to be ∼10−7–10−5 Ω m, indicating that this filament is likely generated by oxygen vacancies rather than metal atoms in the ZnO films.","PeriodicalId":7619,"journal":{"name":"AIP Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

In this paper, a pantograph–catenary coupling vibration model is constructed to investigate the vibration characteristics under various working conditions. Two different types of catenaries (simple and elastic chain types) are simulated and compared using the finite element method. The pantograph is simplified into a mass–spring–damping combination member, the contact and messenger wires are set to linear beam cells, and the dropper and stitch wire are set to truss cells. The results suggest that the vibration characteristics of the two types of catenaries and pantograph exhibit different trends. The maximum stresses of the messenger wire, dropper, and contact wire do not follow a monotonically increasing trend with the train speed. The maximum stress of the messenger wire under the simple chain type of catenary is higher when the initial contact force increases from 80 to 120 N. However, the maximum stress under the elastic chain type of catenary is higher when the initial contact force is 60 or 140 N. Except for the initial contact force of 140 N, the maximum stresses of the dropper and contact wire under the simple chain type of catenary are lower than those under the elastic chain type. This work provides a valuable reference for optimizing the design of pantograph–catenary systems.","PeriodicalId":7619,"journal":{"name":"AIP Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

To improve surface stability, doping with metal oxides is usually employed. To explore high-efficiency In2O3 based catalysts, density functional theory calculations were utilized to explore the effects of doping CuO, Co2O3, NiO, TiO2, HfO2, Nb2O3, Ta2O5, and CeO2 on the stability of the In2O3(110) surface. It was found that in a CO atmosphere, the crucial step in determining the creation of oxygen vacancies on the In2O3 plane occurred during the desorption of CO2 from the vacancy location. The results indicate that doping CuO, Co2O3, NiO, Nb2O3, Ta2O5, and CeO2 on the In2O3(110) surface promotes the reduction process through the reaction of CO with the O atoms on the surface, resulting in reduced surface stability. Conversely, the doping of Ti and Hf can raise the reaction energy barriers for CO reacting with the O atoms on the surface and enhance CO2 molecule adsorption on vacant sites, thereby suggesting the potential of TiO2 and HfO2 as effective modifiers to improve the efficiency and durability of the In2O3 catalyst. Furthermore, it is crucial to enhance its stability by modifying the density of the electron cloud or Fermi level of the In2O3 catalyst.","PeriodicalId":7619,"journal":{"name":"AIP Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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 ANOVA findings show that current is the most significant factor, after voltage as the most significant input parameter in regulating Ra and MRR.
