The key bottleneck to the commercial application of SOT-MTJ is the absence of a practicable symmetry-breaking scheme to switch perpendicular magnetization without an external magnetic field. Here, we demonstrate the wafer-scale realization of internalized field-free switching in perpendicular SOT-MTJ using conventional materials and device structure. We utilize a dual-function tungsten (W) spacer, which generates sizable SOT while concomitantly breaking symmetry via interlayer exchange coupling (IEC). Tuning the W thickness enables field-free switching with two types of IEC. An optimized combination of SOT and IEC ensures competitive switching performance, with our device exhibiting excellent thermal stability, low switching current density, and fast operating speed. This work builds the long-sought bridge between SOT manipulation of magnetization and wafer-scale field-free perpendicular MTJ. It underscores the urgent need to incorporate perpendicular SOT-MTJ in integrated circuits for applications in logic, memory, and unconventional computing.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The repair of tissue cells can be significantly promoted through the localized immunomodulation of tissues. Hydrogels are increasingly used in this field due to their biocompatibility, versatility, and relative ease of fabrication. This Review highlights the critical role of inflammation and immune development in the complex process of tissue repair after injury, highlighting the dynamic interactions between immune cells that ultimately influence the outcome of tissue healing. We also summarize the precise functions of immune cells and their responses in various tissue injury scenarios, which are critical for harnessing the full potential of immunomodulatory strategies to promote tissue repair. We discuss recent advances in drug-carrying hydrogels, which offer promising avenues for tissue regeneration with precise control of the immune environment for constructive tissue repair. Further advances in our understanding of the mechanisms driving inflammation and immune cell behavior during tissue injury are expected to foster the development of increasingly effective hydrogel-based immunomodulatory strategies to promote tissue repair and regeneration.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The terahertz transmittance of the RIG crystals improved after removing the GGG substrate by polishing. The time-domain spectra at Terahertz (THz) frequencies indicate the existence of a magneto-optical effect in RIG samples. The results indicate that the RIG samples exhibit a high refractive index of ∼4.50 within the 0.1–1.0 THz frequency range, a transmittance of around 40%, and an absorption rate of only 10–50 cm−1. The Faraday rotation angles of the thick single-crystal films of the RIG samples were measured using a THz-TDS system. The RIG has a thickness of ∼330 μm. The Faraday rotation angles of RIG crystals at THz frequencies can reach up to 16° when an external magnetic field of 0.18 T is applied. The Verdet constants of the RIG sample were calculated to be ∼120°/mm/T. To improve the transmittance of the RIG sample, epoxy resin and polymethylpentene (TPX) were used as anti-reflective films. The transmittance of the RIG sample increased by ∼5% for the 80 μm thick epoxy and about 10% for the 320 μm thick TPX. Therefore, this RIG single crystal thick film can achieve a low loss, a high transmittance, and a strong magneto-optical effect in the terahertz region with the cooperation of a reflection-reducing film. It is expected to have wide applications in terahertz magnetic polarization conversion, non-reciprocal phase shifters, and isolators.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The layered structure of these compounds introduces unique surface states as well as electronic and structural reconstructions, making the investigation of their surface behavior pivotal to understanding their intrinsic electronic structure. In this work, we study the surface phenomena of epitaxially grown PtCoO2, PdCoO2, and PdCrO2 films, utilizing a combination of molecular-beam epitaxy and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Through precise control of surface termination and treatment, we discover a pronounced 3×3 surface reconstruction in PtCoO2 films and PdCoO2 films, alongside a 2 × 2 surface reconstruction observed in PdCrO2 films. These reconstructions have not been reported in prior studies of delafossites. Furthermore, our computational investigations demonstrate the BO2 surface’s relative stability compared to the A-terminated surface and the significant reduction in surface energy facilitated by the reconstruction of the A-terminated surface. These experimental and theoretical insights illuminate the complex surface dynamics in metallic delafossites, paving the way for future explorations of their distinctive properties in low-dimensional studies.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Machine learning (ML) combined with molecular simulations is used to identify MOFs with high CO2 adsorption capacity from millions of MOF structures. In this study, 23 structural and molecular features and 765 calculated features were proposed for the ML model and trained on a hypothetical MOF dataset for CO2 adsorption at different pressures. The calculated features improved the prediction accuracy of the ML model by 15%–20% and revealed its interpretability, consistent with the analysis of the interaction potential. Subsequently, the importance of the relevant features was ranked at different pressures. Regardless of the pressure, the molecular structure and pore size were the most critical factors. van der Waals force-related descriptors gained more competitive advantages at low pressures, whereas electrical-field-related descriptors gradually dominated at high pressures. Overall, this study provides a novel perspective to guide the initial high-throughput screening of MOFs as high-performance CO2 adsorption materials.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One example is a chiral spin valve composed of ferromagnetic and chiral materials, in which the resistance depends on both the magnetization direction of the ferromagnet and the chirality of the chiral material. So far, chiral spin valves have predominately employed chiral organic molecules, which have limited device applications. Chiral perovskites, which combine the properties of inorganic perovskites with chiral organic molecules, provide an excellent platform for exploring CISS-based devices. However, previous chiral perovskite-based spin valves exhibited magnetoresistance (MR) only at low temperatures. Here, we report room temperature MR in a chiral spin valve consisting of chiral perovskites/AlOx/perpendicular ferromagnet structures. It is observed that the chiral MR increases with rising temperature, suggesting the crucial role of phonon-induced enhancement of spin–orbit coupling in CISS in our device. Furthermore, we enhanced the chiral MR by introducing chiral molecules with amplified chirality. This highlights the potential of chirality engineering to improve CISS and the associated chiral MR, thereby opening possibilities for chiral spin valves tailored for cutting-edge spintronic applications.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142225268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"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, a comprehensive elastocaloric effect characterization for a dog-bone shaped NiTi sheet with a thickness of 0.5 mm was performed for the application in a compact continuous rotating bending elastocaloric cooler. The elastocaloric effect was found to be nearly identical under Brayton-like and sinusoidal force-controlled cyclic tensile loadings. The maximum adiabatic temperature change values of 31 and 23 K were recorded in Brayton-like cyclic loadings under maximum applied stress of 600 and 400 MPa, respectively, with an applied strain rate of 0.1 s−1. During fatigue tests, large applied stress (&gt;600 MPa) and high applied strain rates (&gt;0.1 s−1) tended to result in premature failure of the NiTi sheet samples. In the continuous rotating bending elastocaloric cooler, the sheets generated a temperature span of 6 K between the copper heat sink and heat source. The results of this work provide a set of thermophysical property data for the elastocaloric solid refrigerant and insights for the optimization of structural and operational parameters in elastocaloric coolers and heat pumps.","PeriodicalId":7985,"journal":{"name":"APL Materials","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142197822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
