Cobalt has the highest Curie temperature () among the elemental ferromagnetic metals and has a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) structure at room temperature. In this study, HCP Co was thinned to the thickness of several () unit cells along the -axis and then passivated by halogen atoms, thus being named CoX (X = F, Cl, Br and I). For CoX and CoX, all of them are not only kinetically but also thermodynamically stable from the viewpoint of the phonon spectra and molecular dynamics.

Article Synopsis
  • Feed restriction is commonly used in commercial rabbit farming to enhance feed efficiency, health, and reduce mortality rates, but its effects on Minxinan black rabbits were under-researched.
  • In this study, rabbits were divided into control and feed-restricted groups, with group C having the best outcomes, showing reduced diarrhea rates and improved feed conversion ratios.
  • The optimal feeding strategy was determined to be feeding twice a day (30% in the morning and 70% in the afternoon), which significantly improved several health and growth parameters in the rabbits.

Article Synopsis
  • Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) exhibit non-magnetic properties which hinder their use in spintronics, but doping with rhenium (Re) and applying tensile strain can alter their magnetic characteristics.
  • Research shows that different phases of Re-doped TMDCs (specifically 1H and 1Td structures) can develop magnetism under specific tensile strains, with 1H-Re0.5Mo0.5S2 achieving a peak magnetic moment at 6% strain.
  • The findings suggest that manipulating tensile strain is a promising approach to control magnetism in doped TMDCs, potentially opening avenues for advancements in spintronics.
