Neutron-enhanced ion transport in cathode coating of Li-ion batteries
Ha M. Nguyen, Carson D. Ziemke, David Stalla +7
Polycrystalline solid-state ionic conductors (PolySSICs) are key energy materials for all-solid-state Li-ion batteries (LIBs). However, achieving room-temperature ionic conductivit…
Examining the Spin Structure of Altermagnetic Candidate MnTe Grown with Near Ideal Stoichiometry
Qihua Zhang, Christopher J. Jensen, Alexander J. Grutter +11
Altermagnets are a recently-discovered class of materials with magnetic ordering that have a zero net magnetization and a momentum-dependent spin splitting in their band structure,…
Local Inversion Symmetry Breaking and Thermodynamic Evidence for Ferrimagnetism in Fe3GaTe2
Sang-Eon Lee, Yue Li, Yeonkyu Lee +19
The layered compound Fe3GaTe2 is attracting attention due to its high Curie temperature, low dimensionality, and the presence of topological spin textures above room temperature, m…
Unconventional S-orbital state of Tb and cooperative Ru(4d)-Tb(4f) spin-ordering in strongly correlated 4d-4f system, Ba3TbRu2O9
E. Kushwaha, G. Roy, A. M. dos Santos +4
The 6H-perovskite Ba3RRu2O9 (R = rare-earth), composed of Ru2O9 dimers connected through RO6 octahedra, exhibits an intriguing variety of magnetic ground states, ranging from non-m…
Vacancy-induced Modification of Electronic Band Structure of LiBO Material as Cathode Surface Coating of Lithium-ion Batteries
Ha M. Nguyen, Carson D. Ziemke, Narendirakumar Narayanan +5
LiBO is an electronic insulator and a promising surface coating for stabilizing high-voltage cathodes in lithium-ion batteries. Despite its potential, the functional mechanis…
Formation of Lattice Vacancies and their Effects on Lithium-ion Transport in LiBO2 Crystals: Comparative Ab Initio Studies
Carson Ziemke, Ha M. Nguyen, Sebastian Amaya-Roncancio +4
The monoclinic (m-LBO) and tetragonal (t-LBO) polymorphs of LiBO2 have significant potential for applications such as solid electrolytes and electrode coatings of lithium-ion batte…
