Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) and related organic materials are promising platforms for next-generation memory and energy-storage technologies due to their redox activity, ionic mobility, and compatibility with low-cost and scalable…
We survey the most important kinds of structural complexity in Prussian blue analogues, their implications for materials function, and how they might be controlled through judicious choice of composition. We focus on six particular aspects:…
Hybrid materials, which combine inorganic and molecular components, often exhibit structural flexibility that enables unusual functional responses. Among them, Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) are a promising class for post-lithium battery…
Octahedral tilting is key to the structure and functionality of perovskites. Here we show how these distortions manifest in the related Prussian blue analogues (PBAs): cyanide versions of double perovskites with formula…
We present a comprehensive study of the structural properties and the thermal expansion behavior of 17 different Prussian Blue Analogs (PBAs) with compositions MII3[(M')III(CN)6]2.nH2O and MII2[FeII(CN)6].nH2O, where MII = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni,…
Emerging concepts for neuromorphic computing, bioelectronics, and brain-computer interfacing inspire new research avenues aimed at understanding the relationship between oxidation state and conductivity in unexplored materials. Here, we…
We report Growth--Guided Local Ordering, a novel mechanism of symmetry reduction in disordered crystals. This mechanism operates through the directional ordering of point defects during crystal growth, where defect correlations develop…
This work presents a comprehensive analysis of the variability and reliability of the resistive switching (RS) behavior in Prussian Blue (a mixed-valence iron(III/II) hexacyanoferrate compound) thin films, used as the active layer. These…
We report a study of the electron transport (ET) properties at the nanoscale (conductive-AFM noted C-AFM thereafter) of individual Prussian Blue Analog (PBA) cubic nanocrystals (NCs) of CsCo(III)Fe(II), with size between 15 and 50 nm…
Pt electrocatalytic nanoparticles were deposited onto hybrid carriers composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-transition metal hexacyanoferrate (Prussian Blue-PB) and the resulting system's electrochemical activity was investigated during…
The transport of active particles may occur in complex environments, in which it emerges from the interplay between the mobility of the active components and the quenched disorder of the environment. Here we explore structural and dynamical…
Black phosphorus (BP) is receiving significant attention because of its direct 0.4-1.5 eV layer-dependent band gap and high mobility. Because BP devices rely on exfoliation from bulk crystals, there is a need to understand native impurities…
We present a systematic study of the existence and stability of discrete breathers that are spatially localized in the bulk of a one-dimensional chain of compressed elastic beads that interact via Hertzian contact. The chain is diatomic,…
MAB phases (MABs) are atomically-thin laminates of ceramic/metallic-like layers, having made a breakthrough in the development of 2D materials. Though theoretically offering a vast chemical and phase space, relatively few MABs have yet been…
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are believed to be the small-size tail of the interstellar carbonaceous dust grain population. Their vibrational emission is the most widely accepted source of the aromatic near-infrared features, and…
Interest in substitutional disordered alloys has recently reemerged with focus on the symmetry-sensitive properties in the alloy such as topological insulation and Rashba effect. A substitutional random alloy manifests a distribution of…
Rejection of unmitigated vibrational disturbances represents an ongoing dilemma in complex linkage systems. In this work, we present an inherent and self-reliant vibration isolation mechanism in architected periodic chains of serially…
The electronic properties of polycrystalline lead oxide consisting of a network of single-crystalline $\alpha$-PbO platelets and the formation of the native point defects in $\alpha$-PbO crystal lattice are studied using first principles…
Boron arsenide, the typically-ignored member of the III-V arsenide series BAs-AlAs-GaAs-InAs is found to resemble silicon electronically: its Gamma conduction band minimum is p-like (Gamma_15), not s-like (Gamma_1c), it has an X_1c-like…
PbSe, a predicted two-dimensional (2D) topological crystalline insulator (TCI) in the monolayer limit, possess excellent thermoelectric and infrared optical properties. Native defects in PbSe take a crucial role for the applications.…
