First-principles calculations to investigate electronic structures and magnetic regulation of non-metallic elements doped BP with point defects

Junqing Wen et al.

Summary: The structures, electronic and magnetic properties of non-metallic elements doped black phosphorene (BP) monolayers without or with defects were studied. Defective BP exhibited ferromagnetic metallicity primarily due to the spin polarization of phosphorus atoms near the defect point. Non-metallic elements doping resulted in different electronic and magnetic properties.

Bourahla Asma et al.

Summary: In this study, a series of full-Heusler compounds based on rare earth Ag2YB were investigated using the FP-LAPW method. The compounds were found to be stable in an AlCu2Mn-type structure, ductile, and anisotropic. Both structural and electronic properties were analyzed and compared with existing experimental and theoretical data. Additionally, the variation of heat capacity and coefficient of thermal expansion as a function of temperature was studied based on the quasi-harmonic Debye model.

Superconducting Sr2RuO4 Thin Films without Out-of-Phase Boundaries by Higher-Order Ruddlesden-Popper Intergrowth

Jinkwon Kim et al.

Summary: The experimental approach developed in this study successfully suppressed the formation of out-of-phase boundaries (OPBs) in RP-phase films by controlling the growth of a higher-order RP-phase near the film-substrate interface, resulting in nearly defect-free Sr2RuO4 layer. This led to Sr2RuO4 thin films exhibiting superconductivity up to 1.15 K, the highest among films grown by pulsed laser deposition and paving the way for synthesizing pristine RP-phase heterostructures and exploring their unique physical properties.
