A high-resolution ARPES study on electron-doped MoS2 reveals strong band renormalization effects near the conduction band minima, which are interpreted in terms of Holstein-type electron–phonon interactions.
Electron microscopy and modelling are used to study CO oxidation on oxide-supported Pd. The perimeter of the metal/oxide interface is shown to affect CO tolerance of the entire particle, demonstrating a long-range effect over micrometre length scales.
In situ transmission electron microscopy observations reveal atomistic mechanism of water-vapour-enhanced oxidation of Ni–Cr alloys. Protons derived from water promote vacancy formation, migration and clustering.
Tunnelling spectroscopy reveals a continuous closing of the superconducting gap at low temperature and high in-plane magnetic field in few-layer NbSe2, due to the Ising spin–orbit coupling of these materials.
Pump–probe, time-resolved ARPES experiments with underdoped cuprates reveal the transient enhancement of the density of phase fluctuations, eventually leading to the collapse of superconductivity.
Measurements of the chemical potential in a monolayer of WSe2 using a single electron transistor sensing scheme allows for the exact mapping of the level spacing of Landau levels of monolayer WSe2 in the conductance and valence bands.
Spin–orbit torques are reported in ferromagnetic trilayers that lead to the switching of perpendicular magnetizations without an external magnetic field.
The application of electric fields enables reversible switching of the magnetic order of CrI3 bilayers between antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic states.
Foot-long continuous single-crystal-like monolayer graphene films were fabricated on polycrystalline substrates by evolutionary selection growth, which resembles the Czochralski process in 2D geometry.
A strategy to enhance antigen immunogenicity is shown using polyethyleneimine adsorbed on mesoporous silica microrod vaccine as a platform for neoantigens, supporting potent humoral immune response and inhibition of tumour growth following vaccination.
A systematic investigation of the spin relaxation in nitrogen vacancy centres in diamonds, induced by phononic vacuum modes at low temperature, reveals an upper limit of eight hours.
The mechanism by which cell geometry regulates cell signalling is reported to be modulated by lipid rafts within the plasma membrane, which are now shown to be responsible for geometry-dependent mesenchymal stem cell differentiation.
By combining electron energy-loss magnetic chiral dichroism and chromatic-aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy, it becomes possible to achieve atomic-scale imaging of magnetic circular dichroism.
A SrTiO3/LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructure is fabricated in high oxygen partial pressure to prevent oxygen vacancy formation. Electrical transport and electron holography directly observes a highly mobile two dimensional hole gas at the top interface.
Investigation of the thermal transport properties of AgCrSe2 reveals complete suppression of the transverse acoustic phonons by ultrafast dynamic disorder with only the longitudinal acoustic mode surviving, resembling the thermal conduction of liquids.
Isotopic enrichment in hexagonal boron nitride is shown to enhance the propagation properties of phonon polaritons, achieving a threefold enhancement in their lifetime.
Coherent 1D MoS2 channels, which are free of dangling bonds and dislocations, can be fabricated in monolayer WSe2, driven by dislocations at the interface of the two materials.
