As the simplest element in nature, unraveling the phase diagram of hydrogen is a primary task for condensed matter physics. As conjectured many decades ago, in the low-temperature and high-pressure part of the phase diagram, solid hydrogen…
CO2 conversion into value-added products has gained significant interest over the few last years, as the greenhouse gas concentrations constantly increase due to anthropogenic activities. Here we report on experiments for CO2 conversion by…
Solid solubility (SS) is one of the most important features of alloys, which is usually difficult to be largely tuned in the entire alloy concentrations by external approaches. Some alloys that were supposed to have promising physical…
Topological transition of the iso-frequency contour (IFC) from a closed ellipsoid to an open hyperboloid, will provide unique capabilities for controlling the propagation of light. However, the ability to actively tune these effects remains…
We present the electrical transport characteristics of a batch of nano-crystalline diamond films of varying nitrogen concentrations and explain the conduction mechanism by the disordered quasi-superlattice model applied to semiconductor…
Plasmons can drive chemical reactions by directly exciting intramolecular transitions. However, strong coupling of plasmons to single molecules remains a challenge as ultra-small mode volumes are required. In the presented work, we propose…
Exceptionally high energy density by mass, natural abundance, widespread applications, and environmental friendliness make hydrogen (H2) a front-runner among clean energy options. However, the transition toward clean and renewable energy…
The layered transition metal dichalcogenide, TaSe2, exhibits rich electronic phenomena across its polymorphs, 1T, 2H, and 3R, largely driven by differences in atomic coordination and c-axis stacking. In the 1T phase, octahedral coordination…
We consider single band of conduction electrons interacting with displacements of the transitional ions. In the classical regime strong enough coupling transforms the harmonic elastic energy for an ion to the one of the well with two deep…
Transition metal chromophores with earth-abundant transition metals are an important design target for their applications in lighting and non-toxic bioimaging, but their design is challenged by the scarcity of complexes that simultaneously…
Successful synthesis of the nitrogenated holey two-dimensional structures C2N (Nat. Commun. 2015, 6, 6486) using simply wet-chemical reaction offer a cost-effective way to generate other 2D materials with novel optical and electronic…
Cu-based electrocatalysts exhibits enormous potential for electrochemical CO2 conversion to added-value products. However, high selectivity, specially towards C2+ products, remains a critical challenge for its implementation in commercial…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) host deeply bound excitons interacting with itinerant electrons, and as such they represent an exciting new quantum many-body Bose-Fermi mixture. Here, we demonstrate that electrons…
Membrane-electrode-assembly (MEA) cells with copper (Cu) cathodes show strong potential for electrochemical CO2 reduction to ethylene (C2H4), but achieving high C2H4 selectivity remains a challenge due to competing hydrogen evolution. This…
We observe an insulator-to-metal (I-M) transition in crystalline silicon doped with sulfur to non- equilibrium concentrations using ion implantation followed by pulsed laser melting and rapid resolidification. This I-M transition is due to…
The transition between gapped (semiconducting) and gapless (metallic) phases and tunability of bandgap in materials is a very lucrative yet considerably challenging goal for new-age device preparation. For bulk materials and for…
The increase in anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) emissions has exacerbated the deterioration of the global environment, which should be controlled to achieve carbon neutrality. Central to the core goal of achieving carbon neutrality is…
Motivated by the resistive switchings in transition-metal oxides (TMOs) induced by a voltage bias, we study the far-from-equilibrium dynamics of an electric-field-driven strongly-correlated model featuring a first-order insulator-to-metal…
We study metallic behavior and superconductivity in C$_{60}$ materials in terms of a tight binding model characterized by an intramolecular, nonretarded attraction. It was shown previously that, at intermediate coupling, the model possesees…
Electrocatalytic CO$_2$RR is an interfacial process, involving a minimum of three phases at the contact point of gaseous CO$_2$ with the electrodic surface and the liquid electrolyte. As a consequence, surface chemistry at composite…
