Article Synopsis
  • Spin-orbit coupling in heavy ion oxides leads to interesting magnetic and electronic properties, and this study focuses on the hexagonal 2-spin-chain iridate SrLiIrO, which exhibits geometric frustration.
  • Structural and spectroscopic analyses confirm the presence of desired stoichiometry and a pure +5 valence of Ir, revealing a finite magnetic moment contrary to the expected nonmagnetic state.
  • Despite strong antiferromagnetic correlations, the material does not exhibit magnetic order down to 0.05 K due to geometric frustration, but it shows evidence of spin-freezing and a gapless spinon density of states in its disordered ground state.

MXenes have attracted considerable attention in the field of energy storage and conversion due to their high surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, and ability to intercalate various ions. However, simultaneously achieving high capacitance, rate capability, cycling stability, and mechanical flexibility is a significant challenge for designing MXene-based supercapacitors. In this article, we explored MXene-BiFeO-ZnO nanocomposites for both photocatalytic and electric double-layer supercapacitor applications.
