Exchange bias induced by spin-glass-like state in Te-rich FeGeTe van der Waals ferromagnet

We have experimentally investigated the mechanism of the exchange bias in the 2D van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnets by means of the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) together with the dynamical magnetization property. The temperature dependence of the AC susceptibility with its frequency response indicates a glassy transition of the magnetic property for the Te-rich FeGeTe vdW ferromagnet. We also found that the irreversible temperature dependence in the anomalous Hall voltage follows the Almeida-Thouless line. Moreover, the freezing temperature of the spin-glass-like phase is found to correlate with the disappearance temperature of the exchange bias. These important signatures suggest that the emergence of magnetic exchange bias in the 2D van der Waals ferromagnets is induced by the presence of the spin-glass-like state in FeGeTe. The unprecedented insights gained from these findings shed light on the underlying principles governing exchange bias in vdW ferromagnets, contributing to the advancement of our understanding in this field.

Understanding the Stability for LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 as a Co-free positive electrode material

For understanding the stability of Co-free positive electrode material, LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 was synthesized with different addition amount of lithium during calcination. The valence states of transition metal in the prepared samples were determined by combining accurate stoichiometry analysis via ICP, magnetic moment measurement via SQUID, and element valence analysis via XPS with Ar ion etching. Unexpectedly, the transition metals, Ni and Mn, at interior and surface of LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 particles show different electrochemical properties. This answer lingering questions of Li de-intercalation mechanism in LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2.

Abnormal improved dielectric in La doped relaxor ferroelectric PNN-PHT

Relaxor ferroelectrics are complex materials with distinct properties different from classic ferroelectrics. Probing frequency depended dielectric susceptibility is its trait. Other empirical laws build on classic ferroelectrics are still applicable to relaxor ferroelectrics. Here we report an abnormal improved dielectric in La doped relaxor ferroelectric 0.4PNN-0.6PHT, which deviated from the consistent variation relationship with piezoelectric coefficient. A mesoscale mechanism is proposed to reveal the origin of the improved dielectric response in 0.4PNN-0.6PHT, where the polar nanoregions alignment can facilitate polarization response to external field. This mechanism emphasizes the critical role of polarization fluctuation on the macroscopic properties of 0.4PNN-0.6PHT.

Photoluminescence modulation of ZnO via coupling with the surface plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles

In this letter, we study how coupling between AuNPs and ZnO thin films affects their emission properties. The emission intensity of ZnO thin films changes when Al2O3 spacer layer of different thickness are included in ZnO/Au films, consistent with theoretical predictions. The emission properties are also controlled using the polarization of the excitation source. Emission properties depended on the polarization of the excitation source because of the surface plasmon resonance of AuNPs. The photoluminescence anisotropy of these systems shows that enhanced photoluminescence can be achieved through coupling of the emission from ZnO with the surface plasmon resonance of AuNPs.

Role of Electronic Structure in the Morphotropic Phase Boundary of TbxDy1-xCo2 Studied by First-principles Calculation

Physically parallel to ferroelectric morphotropic phase boundary, a phase boundary separating two ferromagnetic phase of different crystallographic symmetries was found in TbxDy1-xCo2. High-resolution synchrotron XRD has been carried out to offer experimental evidence for TbxDy1-xCo2. It has been proved that TbxDy1-xCo2 (0.6 0.7) phase is distorted from a Laves Phase. Here, a first principles calculation provides a theoretical explanation on the origin of MBP in TbxDy1-xCo2 and is also provided for the question of why MPB occurs in TbxDy1-xCo2 alloys.
