However, till now, very limited nitride perovskites have been reported. In this work, a nitride perovskite LaMoN$_3$ has been systematically studied by first-principles calculations. The most interesting physical property is its ferroelectric $R3c$ phase, which can be stabilized under a moderate hydrostatic pressure ($sim1.5$ GPa) and probably remain meta-stable under the ambient condition. Its ferroelectric polarization is considerable large, $80.3$ $mu$C/cm$^2$, driven by the nominal $4d^0$ rule of Mo$^{6+}$, and the covalent hybridization between Mo's $4d$ and N's $2p$ orbitals is very strong. Our calculation not only predicts a new ferroelectric material with prominent properties, but also encourages more studies on pressure engineering of functional nitrides.","PeriodicalId":8467,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Materials Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87103876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The atomic structures of phase III modelled by C2/c-24 crystals are fully optimized on the level of second-order perturbation theory, demonstrating that previously employed structures optimized on the level of approximate density functionals exhibit errors in the H$_2$ bond lengths that cause significant discrepancies in the computed quasi particle band gaps and vibrational frequencies compared to experiment. Using the newly optimized atomic structures, we study the band gap closure and change in vibrational frequencies as a function of pressure.

These materials can vary from non-polar to ferroelectric, and from direct-band semiconductor to metallic. However, in addition to classical controls such as composition, doping, and field effect in TMDs the additional degrees of freedom emerge due to the curvature-induced electron redistribution and associated changes in electronic properties. Here we numerically explore the elastic and electric fields, flexoelectric polarization and free charge density for a TMD nanoflake placed on a rough substrate with a sinusoidal profile of the corrugation using finite element modelling (FEM). Numerical results for different flake thickness and corrugation depth yield insight into the flexoelectric nature of the out-of-plane electric polarization and establish the unambiguous correlation between the polarization and static conductivity modulation caused by inhomogeneous elastic strains coupled with deformation potential and strain gradients, which evolve in TMD nanoflake due to the adhesion between the flake surface and corrugated substrate. We revealed a pronounced maximum at the thickness dependences of the electron and hole conductivity of MoS2 and MoTe2 nanoflakes placed on a metallic substrate, which opens the way for their geometry optimization towards significant improvement their polar and electronic properties, necessary for their advanced applications in nanoelectronics and memory devices.","PeriodicalId":8467,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Materials Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90300176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These reactions yield well-separated phases, for instance graphene and the metal surface, or, on the contrary, alloyed phases, such as metal carbides. Here, we investigate carbon phases on a rhenium (0001) surface, where the former kind of phase can transform into the latter. We find that this transformation occurs with increasing annealing time, which is hence not suitable to increase the quality of graphene. Our scanning tunneling spectroscopy and reflection high-energy electron diffraction analysis reveal that repeated short annealing cycles are best suited to increase the lateral extension of the structurally coherent graphene domains. Using the same techniques and with the support of density functional theory calculations, we next unveil, in real space, the symmetry of the many variants (two six-fold families) of a rhenium surface carbide observed with diffraction since the 1970s, and finally propose models of the atomic details. One of these models, which nicely matches the microscopy observations, consists of parallel rows of eight aligned carbon trimers with a so-called $(7timessqrt{mathrm{19}})$ unit cell with respect to Re(0001).","PeriodicalId":8467,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Materials Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72575313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we describe mechanisms by which the sum-frequency components of the driving field can be used to coherently excite magnons through two-particle absorption processes. We use the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert formalism to compare the spin-precession amplitudes that different types of impulsive stimulated and ionic Raman scattering processes and their sum-frequency counterparts induce in an antiferromagnetic model system. We show that sum-frequency mechanisms enabled by linearly polarized driving fields yield excitation efficiencies comparable or larger than established Raman techniques, while elliptical polarizations produce only weak and circularly polarizations no sum-frequency components at all. The mechanisms presented here complete the map for dynamical spin control by the means of Raman-type processes.","PeriodicalId":8467,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Materials Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90940551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, limited materials are experimentally available, most of whom are realized by magnetic impurity doping or heterostructural constructions. In this work, based on the first-principles calculations, we predict that double perovskite Ba2CdReO6 is an intrinsic ferromagnetic topological semi-half-metal, while the ferrimagnetic double perovskite with space group symmetry Fm-3m, such as Ba2FeMoO6, belongs to topological half-metal. One pair of Weyl points and fully spin-polarized nodal-ring states are found in the vicinity of the Fermi level in Ba2CdReO6. Its two-dimensional nearly flat drumhead surface states are fully spin-polarized. In Ba2FeMoO6, however, there exist four pairs of Weyl points and two fully spin-polarized nodal-rings near the Fermi level. These topological properties are stable in the presence of spin-orbit coupling. This makes these materials be an appropriate platform for studying the emerging intriguing properties, especially for the applications in spintronics, information technology, and topological superconductivity.","PeriodicalId":8467,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Materials Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77828771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At 3K, fine structures with two dips emerge in the plateau-like dI/dV, reflecting highly coherent tunneling through the Fe/MgO/Fe.

This mode, which represents the coherent sliding motion of electrons and lattice distortions and affects low energy transport properties, is described by the phase of the complex order parameter of the Peierls condensate, leading to Frohlich superconductivity in pure systems. Once spatial disorder is present, however, phason is pinned and system is transformed into an insulating ground state: a dramatic change. Since phason can be considered as an ultimate of phonon drag effect, it is of interest to see its effects on thermoelectricity, which has been studied in the present paper based linear response theory of Kubo and Luttinger.

We study the effect hydrostatic pressure $P$ and doping with rare earth elements on the topological aspect of this material in bulk from a first principles perspective. Our study shows that under a moderate pressure of P$>$7.9 GPa, the bulk electronic properties show a transition from an insulating to a Weyl semi-metal state due to band inversion. This transition may be correlated to a structural transition from a layered material to a 3D system observed at $P$=7.9 GPa. At large $P$ density of states have significant value at the Fermi-energy. Intercalating Gd with a small doping fraction between Bi$_2$Se$_3$ layers drives the system to a metallic anti-ferromagnetic state, with Weyl nodes below the Fermi-energy. At the Weyl nodes time reversal symmetry is broken due to finite local field induced by large magnetic moments on Gd atoms. However, substituting Bi with Gd induces anti-ferromagnetic order with an increased direct band gap. Our studies provides novel approaches to tune topological transitions, particularly in capturing the elusive Weyl semimetal states, in 3D topological materials.","PeriodicalId":8467,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Materials Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85860575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
