Enabling the Ambient Pressure Growth of ScB2 Crystals for AlGaN Power Electronics
Satya K. Kushwaha, Ahamed Raihan, Astrid D. Kengne +19
Here we report the growth of single crystalline ScB2, an ultrahigh-temperature ceramic, at ambient pressure in a laser-heated Optical Floating Zone via the travelling solvent metho…
Scandium diboride: a semi-metallic, lattice, thermally matched substrate for vertical AlGaN power electronics
MVS Chandrashekhar, Daniel Joel Harrison, Ahamed Raihan +22
We report the properties of hexagonal (space group P6/mmm) scandium diboride () single crystals grown by a laser diode floating zone method at growth rates of ~1mm/…
Stacking-dependent anisotropic altermagnetism in VNbS
Chris J. Lygouras, Nathan Prouse, Jack H. Drouin +14
We report profound impacts of the stacking sequence of triangular lattices of magnetic transition metal ions intercalated between the layers of the van der Waals material NbS.…
Human and LLM Collaboration for Accelerated Materials Synthesis and Discovery
Gregory Bassen, Wyatt Bunstine, Sarah Okandey +7
Although Large Language Models (LLM) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have enabled a rapid increase in the generation rate of predicted materials, the rate of new materials d…
KCo(TeO) 2.5 HO : A mineral-inspired pseudo-honeycomb cobalt dimer antiferromagnet
Austin M. Ferrenti, Maxime A. Siegler, Yiqing Hao +9
In recent years, magnetically-frustrated triangular and honeycomb lattice cobaltates have seen extensive study in the pursuit of a quantum spin liquid (QSL) state in a real materia…
The superconducting diode effect in Josephson junctions fabricated from structurally chiral MoAlC
Peter T. Orban, Gregory Bassen, Evan N. Crites +3
The superconducting diode effect occurs in superconducting materials in which both spin and inversion symmetry are broken. The recently observed chirality-induced spin selectivity…
Hydroflux Crystal Growth of Alkali Tellurate Oxide-Hydroxides
Madalyn R. Gragg, Allana G. Iwanicki, Maxime A. Siegler +1
This study investigates the synthesis of novel magnetic materials via hydroflux synthesis, a method that combines flux-based and hydrothermal techniques. Single crystals of three n…
Symmetry-mediated quantum coherence of spins in an oxygen-deficient double perovskite
Shannon Bernier, Mekhola Sinha, Tyler J. Pearson +7
Elucidating the factors limiting quantum coherence in real materials is essential to the development of quantum technologies. Here we report a strategic approach to determine the e…
On the Chemistry and Physical Properties of Flux and Floating Zone Grown SmB6 Single Crystals
W. A. Phelan, S. M. Koohpayeh, P. Cottingham +8
Recent theoretical and experimental findings suggest that the long-known but not well understood low temperature resistance plateau of SmB6 may originate from protected surface sta…
