Negative Cooperativity upon Hydrogen Bond-Stabilized O 2 Adsorption in a Redox-Active Metal-Organic Framework

June 18, 2020
Author(s)
Julia Oktawiec, Henry Z. H. Jiang, Jenny G. Vitillo, Douglas A. Reed, Lucy E. Darago, Benjamin Trump, Varinia Bernales, Harriet Li, Kristen A. Colwell, Hiroyasu Furukawa, Craig Brown, Laura Gagliardi, Jeffrey R. Long
The design of stable adsorbents capable of selectively capturing dioxygen with a high reversible capacity is a crucial goal in functional materials development. Drawing inspiration from biological O 2 carriers, we demonstrate that coupling metal-based

Inter-Kramers Transitions and Spin-Phonon Couplings in a Lanthanide-Based Single-Molecule Magnet

Duncan H. Moseley, Shelby E. Stavretis, Zhenhua Zhu, Mei Guo, Craig Brown, Mykhaylo Ozerov, Yongqiang Cheng, Luke L. Daemen, Rachael Richardson, Gary Knight, Komalavalli Thirunavukkuarasu, Anibal J. Ramirez-Cuesta, Jinkui Tang, Zi-Ling Xue
Spin-phonon coupling plays a critical role in magnetic relaxation in single-molecule magnets (SMMs) and molecular qubits. Yet, few studies of its nature have been conducted. Phonons here refer to both intermolecular and intramolecular vibrations. In the

Metastability and Reversibility of Anionic Redox-Based Cathode for High-Energy Rechargeable Batteries

Bao Qiu, Minghao Zhang, Seung-Yong Lee, Haodong Liu, Thomas A. Wynn, Lijun Wu, Yimei Zhu, Wen Wen, Craig Brown, Dong Zhou, Zhaoping Liu, Ying Shirley Meng
Great focus has been placed on the advancement of anionic redox, to which Li-rich layered oxide cathodes high capacities - currently exceeding 300 mAh g -1 - are attributed. With almost doubled capacity compared with present cathode materials, performance

Long-Range Magnetic Order in Hydroxide-Layer-Doped (Li 1-x-y Fe x Mn y OD)FeSe

Brandon Wilfong, Xiuquan Zhou, Huafei Zheng, Navneeth Babra, Craig Brown, Jeffrey W. Lynn, Keith M. Taddei, Johnpierre Paglione, Efrain E. Rodriguez
The (Li 1-xFe xOH)FeSe superconductor has been suspected to exhibit long-range magnetic ordering due to Fe substitution in the LiOH layer. However, no direct observation such as magnetic reflection from neutron diffraction has be reported. Here, we use a

Understanding How Ligand Functionalization Influences CO 2 and N 2 Adsorption in a Sodalite Metal-Organic Framework

February 25, 2020

Mehrdad Asgari, Rocio Semino, Pascal A. Schouwink, Ilia Kochetygov, Jacob D. Tarver, Olga Trukhina, Rajamani Krishna, Craig Brown, Michele Ceriotti, Wendy L. Queen
In this work, a detailed study is conducted to understand how ligand substitution influences the CO 2 and N 2 adsorption properties of two highly crystalline sodalite MOFs known as Cu-BTT (BTT -3= 1,3,5-benzenetristetrazolate) and Cu-BTTri (BTTri -3 = 1,3

Molecular Insight into Fluorocarbon Adsorption in Pore Expanded Metal-Organic Framework Analogs

Jian Zheng, Dushyant Barpaga, Benjamin Trump, Manish Shetty, Yanzhong Fan, Papri Bhattacharya, Jeromy J. Jenks, Cheng-Yong Su, Craig Brown, Guillaume Maurin, B. Peter McGrail, Radha Kishan Motkuri
The rapid growth in the global energy demand for space cooling requires the development of more efficient environmental chillers for which adsorption-based cooling systems can be utilized. Here in this contribution, we explore sorbents for chiller use via

Elusive Valence Transition in Mixed-Valence Sesquioxide Cs 4 O 6

November 4, 2019

Ross H. Colman, H. Esma Okur, Winfried Kockelmann, Craig Brown, Annette Sans, Claudia Felser, Martin Jansen, Kosmas Prassides
Cs 4O 6 is a mixed valence molecular oxide with a cubic structure, comprising valency-delocalized O 2 4/3- units and with properties highly sensitive to cooling protocols. Here we use neutron powder diffraction to authenticate that, while upon deep

Realization of Interlayer Ferromagnetic Interaction in MnSb 2 Te 4 toward the Magnetic Weyl Semimetal State

November 4, 2019
Author(s)
Taito Murakami, Yusuke Nambu, Takashi Koretsune, Gu Xiangyu, Takafumi Yamamoto, Craig Brown, Hiroshi Kageyama
Magnetism in the newly synthesized topological magnet Sb 2MnTe 4 is examined. Magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and neutron diffraction measurements reveal a ferrimagnetic transition below 25 K, in contradiction to previous theoretical calculations

Field-Tunable Quantum Disordered Ground State in the Triangular-Lattice Antiferromagnet NaYbO 2

October 1, 2019

Mitchell M. Bordelon, Eric Kenney, Chunxiao Liu, Tom Hogan, Lorenzo Posthuma, Marzieh Kavand, Yuangqi Lyu, Mark Sherwin, Nicholas Butch, Craig Brown, M. J. Graf, Leon Balents, Stephen D. Wilson
One of the simplest routes to pursuing magnets with strong quantum fluctuations that quench conventional order is via decorating a triangular lattice with antiferromagnetically coupled S=1/2 moments. As disorder and anisotropies inherent in materials

Anharmonic Acoustic Phonons and A-site Critical Fluctuations in the Lead Halide Perovskite CsPbBr 3

M. Songvilay, Nathan Giles-Donovan, M. Bari, Z.-G. Ye, J. L. Minns, M. A. Green, Guangyong Xu, Peter M. Gehring, K. Schmalzl, William D. Ratcliff, Craig Brown, D. Chernyshov, W. van Beek, Sandy Cochran, Christopher Stock
We apply neutron spectroscopy to investigate the transverse acoustic phonons in the lead halide CsPbBr 3 near the three zone boundaries of the cubic Pm3m Brillouin zone at QX = (2,1/2,0), Q M = (3/2,1/2,0), and Q R = (1/2,1/2,3/2). CsPbB r3 undergoes two
