Detection Of Uncompensated Magnetization At The Interface Of An Epitaxial Antiferromagnetic Insulator, Pavel N. Lapa, Min Han Lee, Igor V. Roshchin, Kirill Belashchenko, Ivan K. Schuller
Kirill Belashchenko Publications
We have probed directly the temperature and magnetic field dependence of pinned uncompensated magnetization at the interface of antiferromagnetic FeF2 with Cu, using FeF2-Cu-Co spin valves. Electrons polarized by the Co layer are scattered by the pinned uncompensated moments at the FeF2-Cu interface giving rise to giant magnetoresistance. We determined the direction and magnitude of the pinned uncompensated magnetization at different magnetic fields and temperatures using the angular dependencies of resistance. The strong FeF2 anisotropy pins the uncompensated magnetization along the easy axis independent of the cooling field orientation. Most interestingly, magnetic fields as …

Strain And Stress Relationships For Optical Phonon Modes In Monoclinic Crystals With Β-Ga2O3 As An Example, Rafal Korlacki, Megan Stokey, Alyssa Lynn Mock, Sean Knight, Alexis Papamichail, Vanya Darakchieva, Mathias Schubert
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications
Strain-stress relationships for physical properties are of interest for heteroepitaxial material systems, where strain and stress are inherent due to thermal expansion and lattice mismatch. We report linear perturbation theory strain and stress relationships for optical phonon modes in monoclinic crystals for strain and stress situations which maintain the monoclinic symmetry of the crystal. By using symmetry group analysis and phonon frequencies obtained under various deformation scenarios from density-functional perturbation theory calculations on β-Ga2O3, we obtain four strain and four stress potential parameters for each phonon mode. We demonstrate that these parameters are sufficient to …

Kirill Belashchenko Publications
New determination of the magnetic anisotropy from single crystals of (Fe1-xCox)2B alloys are presented. The anomalous temperature dependence of the anisotropy constant is discussed using the standard Callen-Callen theory, which is shown to be insufficient to explain the experimental results. A more material specific study using first-principles calculations with disordered moments approach gives a much more consistent interpretation of the experimental data. Since the intrinsic properties of the alloys with x=0.3-0.35 are promising for permanent magnets applications, initial investigation of the extrinsic properties are described, in particular the crystallization of melt spun ribbons with Cu, Al, …
Helmholtz Spacing Of Thin Rectangular Magnetic Field Coils, Karl J. Ahrendsen, Sarah Reyes, Timothy J. Gay
Helmholtz Spacing Of Thin Rectangular Magnetic Field Coils, Karl J. Ahrendsen, Sarah Reyes, Timothy J. Gay
Timothy J. Gay Publications
In this Note, we discuss the Helmholtz spacing for a pair of thin rectangular coils of arbitrary aspect ratio and consider how best to use such coils to compensate for Earth’s magnetic field along the coils’ Cartesian symmetry axes. Such coils are frequently used in conjunction with charged-particle beam machines. The Helmholtz spacing varies non-monotonically between that for square coils and that for four optimally spaced infinite wires. We consider other coil spacings that extend the length over which the field varies by less than some tolerance along the Cartesian symmetry axes. The calculations also provide a convenient means to …
Photodissociation Of Aqueous I 3 - Observed With Liquid-Phase Ultrafast Mega-Electron-Volt Electron Diffraction, K. Ledbetter, E. Biasin, J. P.F. Nunes, Martin Centurion, K. J. Gaffney, M. Kozina, M. F. Lin, X. Shen, J. Yang, X. J. Wang, T. J. A. Wolf, A. A. Cordones

Developing femtosecond resolution methods for directly observing structural dynamics is critical to understanding complex photochemical reaction mechanisms in solution. We have used two recent developments, ultrafast mega-electron-volt electron sources and vacuum compatible sub-micron thick liquid sheet jets, to enable liquid-phase ultrafast electron diffraction (LUED). We have demonstrated the viability of LUED by investigating the photodissociation of tri-iodide initiated with a 400 nm laser pulse. This has enabled the average speed of the bond expansion to be measured during the first 750 fs of dissociation and the geminate recombination to be directly captured on the picosecond time scale.

High-Resolution Movies Of Molecular Rotational Dynamics Captured With Ultrafast Electron Diffraction, Yanwei Xiong, Kyle J. Wilkin, Martin Centurion
Martin Centurion Publications
Imaging the structure of molecules during a photoinduced reaction is essential for elucidating reaction mechanisms. This requires high spatiotemporal resolution to capture nuclear motions on the femtosecond and subangstrom scale, and a sufficiently high signal level to sample their continuous evolution with high fidelity. Here we show that, using high-repetition-rate ultrafast electron diffraction, we can accurately reconstruct a movie of the coherent rotational motion of laser-aligned nitrogen molecules. We have used a tabletop 90-keV photoelectron gun to simultaneously achieve high temporal resolution of 240 fs full width at half maximum and an electron beam current that is more than an …
Cold Sintering Diisopropylamonium Bromide To Form Organic Ceramic Pellets, Darren Armstrong
Cold Sintering Diisopropylamonium Bromide To Form Organic Ceramic Pellets, Darren Armstrong
Honors Theses
Diisopropylamonium bromide is an organic ferroelectric compound. Standard sample preparation methods either require a powder or a single crystal. Certain measurements cannot be done on powders due to equipment limitations, and single crystals are difficult and time consuming to produce and handle. Cold sintering is a relatively new process that allows the creation of ceramics. The original cold sintering process was adapted to work for diisopropylamonium bromide. This allows the creation of ceramics with a large surface area. These pellets can achieve up to 95% of the theoretical maximum density. While the pellets are currently unsuitable for electric testing at …
Indium Segregation To The Selvedge Of In4Se3 (001), Archit Dhingra, Zoe G. Marzouk, Esha Mishra, Pavlo V. Galiy, Taras M. Nenchuk, Peter Dowben
Indium Segregation To The Selvedge Of In4Se3 (001), Archit Dhingra, Zoe G. Marzouk, Esha Mishra, Pavlo V. Galiy, Taras M. Nenchuk, Peter Dowben
Peter Dowben Publications
Thermal motion of the surface atoms will lead to a decrease in photoemission intensity, while surface segregation may result in an increase of some phostoemission intensities. For In4Se3(001), both effects are seen. The Debye–Waller factor plot, based on the temperature dependent X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) measurements on In4Se3(001), suggests an upper bound of 203 ± 6 K for the effective Debye temperature, based on the surface component of the In 3d5/2 core-level. Indium is found to segregate to selvedge (subsurface region) of the crystal.
The Electronic Properties Of The Quasi-One-Dimensional Transition Metal Trichalcogenides: Tis3 And Zrs3, Simeon Gilbert
The Electronic Properties Of The Quasi-One-Dimensional Transition Metal Trichalcogenides: Tis3 And Zrs3, Simeon Gilbert
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The transition metal trichalcogenides are a class of materials formed by 1D chains of covalently bound MX3 (M=Ti, Zr, Hf, Ta, Nb; X=S, Se, Te) trigonal prisms which are held together by weak van der Waals forces to form 2D sheets. Because of their superior edge termination, these materials suppress edge scattering effects that plague other two-dimensional materials thus enabling devices scaling to widths below 10 nm. Furthermore, this quasi-one-dimensional structure results in highly anisotropic electronic and optical properties which were examined through angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy and scanning photocurrent microscopy. These measurements show that the hole carrier masses …
Nonlocal Complex Potential Theory Of Dissociative Electron Attachment: Inclusion Of Two Vibrational Modes, H. B. Ambalampitiya, Ilya I. Fabrikant
Nonlocal Complex Potential Theory Of Dissociative Electron Attachment: Inclusion Of Two Vibrational Modes, H. B. Ambalampitiya, Ilya I. Fabrikant
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
The process of dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to molecules with several vibrational degrees of freedom is usually treated in the approximation of the local potential for the description of the nuclear motion. We develop the nonlocal complex potential theory to treat the dissociation dynamics when there is more than one vibrational mode in the neutral molecule. We demonstrate the application of the multimode nonlocal theory to a generic molecule of the type CY3X, where Y denotes the H or F atom and X denotes the halogen atom, with the inclusion of symmetric C–X stretch and CY3 deform …

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications
Infrared-active lattice mode properties of melt-grown high-quality single bulk crystals of ZnGa2O4 are investigated by combined spectroscopic ellipsometry and density functional theory computation analysis. The normal spinel structure crystals are measured by spectroscopic ellipsometry at room temperature in the range of 100 cm–1–1200 cm–1. The complex-valued dielectric function is determined from a wavenumber-by-wavenumber approach, which is then analyzed by the four-parameter semi-quantum model dielectric function approach augmented by impurity mode contributions. We determine four infrared-active transverse and longitudinal optical mode pairs, five localized impurity mode pairs, and the high frequency dielectric constant. All …
Free Charge Carrier Properties In Two-Dimensional Materials And Monoclinic Oxides Studied By Optical Hall Effect, Sean Knight
Free Charge Carrier Properties In Two-Dimensional Materials And Monoclinic Oxides Studied By Optical Hall Effect, Sean Knight
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
In this dissertation, optical Hall effect (OHE) measurements are used to determine the free charge carrier properties of important two-dimensional materials and monoclinic oxides. Two-dimensional material systems have proven useful in high-frequency electronic devices due to their unique properties, such as high mobility, which arise from their two-dimensional nature. Monoclinic oxides exhibit many desirable characteristics, for example low-crystal symmetry which could lead to anisotropic carrier properties. Here, single-crystal monoclinic gallium oxide, an AlInN/GaN-based high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) structure, and epitaxial graphene are studied as examples. To characterize these material systems, the OHE measurement technique is employed. The OHE is a physical …

Site Selective Adsorption Of The Spin Crossover Complex Fe(Phen)2(Ncs)2 On Au(111), Sumit Beniwal, Suchetana Sarkar, Felix Baier, Birgit Weber, Peter Dowben, Axel Enders
Peter Dowben Publications
The iron(II) spin crossover complex Fe(1,10-phenanthroline)2(NCS)2, dubbed Fe-phen, has been studied with scanning tunneling microscopy, after adsorption on the 'herringbone' reconstructed surface of Au(111) for sub-monolayer coverages. The Fe-phen molecules attach, through their NCS-groups, to the Au atoms of the fcc domains of the reconstructed surface only, thereby lifting the herringbone reconstruction. The molecules stack to form 1D chains, which run along the Au[110] directions. Neighboring Fe-phen molecules are separated by approximately 2.65 nm, corresponding to 9 atomic spacings in this direction. The molecular axis, defined by the two phenanthroline groups, is aligned perpendicular to the …

Electrical Detection Of Ferroelectriclike Metals Through The Nonlinear Hall Effect, Rui-Chun Xiao, Ding-Fu Shao, Wenjuan Huang, Hua Jiang
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
Ferroelectriclike metals are a relatively rare class of materials that have ferroelectriclike distortion and metallic conductivity. LiOsO3 is the first demonstrated and the most investigated ferroelectriclike metal. The presence of free carriers makes them difficult to be studied by traditional ferroelectric techniques. In this paper, using symmetry analysis and first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that the ferroelectriclike transition of LiOsO3 can be probed by a kind of electrical transport method based on nonlinear Hall effect. The Berry curvature dipole exists in the ferroelectriclike phase and it can lead to a measurable nonlinear Hall conductance with a conventional experimental setup. …
Lepton Flavor Violation And Dilepton Tails At The Lhc, Andrei Angelescu, Darius A. Faroughy, Olcyr Sumensari
Lepton Flavor Violation And Dilepton Tails At The Lhc, Andrei Angelescu, Darius A. Faroughy, Olcyr Sumensari
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
Starting from a general effective Lagrangian for lepton flavor violation (LFV) in quark-lepton transitions, we derive constraints on the effective coefficients from the high-mass tails of the dilepton processes pp → ℓkℓl (with k ≠ l). The current (projected) limits derived in this paper from LHC data with 36 fb−1 (3 ab−1) can be applied to generic new physics scenarios, including the ones with scalar, vector and tensor effective operators. For purely left-handed operators, we explicitly compare these LHC constraints with the ones derived from flavor-physics observables, illustrating the complementarity of these different probes. …

Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
Mechanical jamming of nanoparticles at liquid–liquid interfaces has evolved into a versatile approach to structure liquids with solid-state properties. Ferromagnetic liquids obtain their physical and magnetic properties, including a remanent magnetization that distinguishes them from ferrofluids, from the jamming of magnetic nanoparticles assembled at the interface between two distinct liquids to minimize surface tension. This perspective provides an overview of recent progress and discusses future directions, challenges and potential applications of jamming magnetic nanoparticles with regard to 3D nano-magnetism. We address the formation and characterization of curved magnetic geometries, and spin frustration between dipole-coupled nanostructures, and advance our understanding of …
Generalized Magnetoelectronic Circuit Theory And Spin Relaxation At Interfaces In Magnetic Multilayers, G. G. Baez Flores, Alexey Kovalev, Mark Van Schilfgaarde, K. D. Belashchenko
Generalized Magnetoelectronic Circuit Theory And Spin Relaxation At Interfaces In Magnetic Multilayers, G. G. Baez Flores, Alexey Kovalev, Mark Van Schilfgaarde, K. D. Belashchenko
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
Spin transport at metallic interfaces is an essential ingredient of various spintronic device concepts, such as giant magnetoresistance, spin-transfer torque, and spin pumping. Spin-orbit coupling plays an important role in many such devices. In particular, spin current is partially absorbed at the interface due to spin-orbit coupling. We develop a general magnetoelectronic circuit theory and generalize the concept of spin-mixing conductance, accounting for various mechanisms responsible for spin-flip scattering. For the special case when exchange interactions dominate, we give a simple expression for the spin-mixing conductance in terms of the contributions responsible for spin relaxation (i.e., spin memory loss), spin …

Peter Dowben Publications
The surface termination of In4Se3(001) and the interface of this layered trichalcogenide, with Au, was examined using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy. Low energy electron diffraction indicates that the surface is highly crystalline, but suggests an absence of C2v mirror plane symmetry. The surface termination of the In4Se3(001 is found, by angle-resolved x-ray photoemission spectroscopy, to be In, which is consistent with the observed Schottky barrier formation found with this n-type semiconductor. Transistor measurements confirm earlier results from photoemission, suggesting that In4Se3(001 is an n-type semiconductor, so that Schottky barrier …

Pump-probe measurements aim to capture the motion of electrons and nuclei on their natural timescales (femtoseconds to attoseconds) as chemical and physical transformations take place, effectively making "molecular movies"with short light pulses. However, the quantum dynamics of interest are filtered by the coordinate-dependent matrix elements of the chosen experimental observable. Thus, it is only through a combination of experimental measurements and theoretical calculations that one can gain insight into the internal dynamics. Here, we report on a combination of structural (relativistic ultrafast electron diffraction, or UED) and spectroscopic (time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, or TRPES) measurements to follow the coupled electronic and …

Robert Streubel Papers
Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected spin textures with promising prospects for applications in data storage. They can form a lattice state due to competing magnetic interactions and are commonly found in a small region of the temperature - magnetic field phase diagram. Recent work has demonstrated that these magnetic quasi-particles fluctuate at the μeV energy scale. Here, we use a coherent x-ray correlation method at an x-ray free-electron laser to investigate these fluctuations in a magnetic phase coexistence region near a first-order transition boundary where fluctuations are not expected to play a major role. Surprisingly, we find that the relaxation …
Semiclassical Theory Of Laser-Assisted Radiative Recombination, Ilya I. Fabrikant, H. B. Ambalampitiya
Semiclassical Theory Of Laser-Assisted Radiative Recombination, Ilya I. Fabrikant, H. B. Ambalampitiya
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
We study the process of laser-assisted radiative recombination of an electron with a proton by using a semiclassical approach involving calculation of classical trajectories in combined laser and Coulomb fields. Due to chaotic scattering in the combined fields, the radiation probability as a function of the impact parameter and the constant phase of the laser field exhibits chaotic behavior and fractal structures. We obtain a strong enhancement of the recombination cross section as compared to the laser-free case due to the Coulomb focusing effect. For sufficiently low incident electron velocities the cross section becomes infinite, and we limit it by …

Symmetry And Interface Considerations For Interactions On Mos2, Prescott E. Evans
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The critical role of symmetry, in adsorbate-MoS2 interactions, has been demonstrated through a variety of electronic structure, topology, and catalytic studies of MoS2 and MoS2 composites.A combination of density functional theory and experiment exhibiting diiodobenzene isomer dependent adsorption rates highlight frontier orbital symmetry as key to adsorption on MoS2. It is clear that the geometry and symmetry of MoS2 influences the creation and stability of surface defects, that in turn affect catalytic activity and a myriad of other applications. We have shown that surface reactions such the methanol to methoxy reaction can create defects …

The Askaryan Radio Array Experiment located near the South Pole works to pinpoint specific instances of neutrinos from outside the solar system interacting with nucleons inside the Antarctic ice. Neutrinos are a subatomic particle that has nearly no mass and a net neutral charge. As they are, neutrinos tend not to interact with anything as they travel through space which means they can provide us with information about events occurring far from Earth that might not be easily attained through other methods. Neutrinos are known to be emitted from a myriad of sources, including the Sun, the interaction between cosmic …

Spin-Torque Switching Of Noncollinear Antiferromagnetic Antiperovskites, Gautam Gurung, Ding-Fu Shao, Evgeny Y. Tsymbal
Department of Physics and Astronomy: Faculty Publications
Antiferromagnetic (AFM) spintronics exploits the Néel vector as a state variable for novel electronic devices. Recent studies have demonstrated that the Néel vector can be switched by a spin-orbit torque. These studies however are largely limited to collinear antiferromagnets of proper magnetic space-group symmetry. There is, however, a large group of high-temperature noncollinear antiferromagnets, which are suitable for such switching. Here, we predict that spin torque can be efficiently used to switch a noncollinear AFM order in antiperovskite materials. Based on first-principles calculations and atomistic spin-dynamics modeling, we show that in antiperovskites ANMn3 (A = Ga, Ni, etc.) with …

This paper summarises the theory and functionality behind Questaal, an open-source suite of codes for calculating the electronic structure and related properties of materials from first principles. The formalism of the linearised muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) method is revisited in detail and developed further by the introduction of short-ranged tight-binding basis functions for full-potential calculations. The LMTO method is presented in both Green's function and wave function formulations for bulk and layered systems. The suite's full-potential LMTO code uses a sophisticated basis and augmentation method that allows an efficient and precise solution to the band problem at different levels of theory, …
