The interaction between perovskite oxides and water can have a significant influence on practical performance. Here the authors study the dynamics of surface water adsorption and hydroxide formation during monolayer formation on a ruthenate.
Structural inversion asymmetry in magnetic materials leads to a dissipative chiral damping mechanism. This mechanism is evidenced in the field-driven domain-wall motion in perpendicularly magnetized asymmetric Pt/Co/Pt trilayers.
The efficient design of nanoporous materials crucially depends on understanding the mass transfer mechanism. Using micro-imaging techniques we now show that apparently identical crystals can exhibit different uptake rates.
Producing hydrogen via solar water splitting with metal-based molecular catalysts offers scalability. An active p-GaInP2 photocathode stabilized by a TiO2 layer functionalized by a cobaloxime molecular catalyst is now reported for water reduction.
The Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) project is dedicated to the investigation of light–matter interactions at high laser intensities and on short timescales.
Studying three Weyl semimetals of the same family — TaAs, TaP and NbP — reveals how the properties of Weyl points and Fermi arcs depend on the spin–orbit coupling and on surface conditions.
This Review discusses the properties and applications of supramolecular biomaterials for drug delivery, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine and immunology.
Conducting complex oxides with correlated electrons at room temperature offer a less explored materials platform for the high conductivity and optical transparency needed for ultrathin invisible circuitry.
Thin and continuous films of porous metal–organic frameworks can now be conformally deposited on various substrates using a vapour-phase synthesis approach that departs from conventional solution-based routes.
The electronic interaction between deposited metal nanoparticles and their support material can influence their functionality. Here, a quantification of the charge transfer between platinum nanoparticles and a ceria support is presented.
The quasi-one-dimensional bismuth iodide β-Bi4I4 is theoretically predicted and experimentally confirmed to exhibit a (1;110) Z2 strong topological insulator phase.
