Thickness-dependent polaron crossover in tellurene.

Polarons, quasiparticles from electron-phonon coupling, are crucial for material properties including high-temperature superconductivity and colossal magnetoresistance. However, scarce studies have investigated polaron formation in low-dimensional materials with phonon polarity and electronic structure transitions. In this work, we studied polarons of tellurene, composed of chiral Te chains.

Topological Superconductors from a Materials Perspective.

Topological superconductors (TSCs) have garnered significant research and industry attention in the past two decades. By hosting Majorana bound states which can be used as qubits that are robust against local perturbations, TSCs offer a promising platform toward (nonuniversal) topological quantum computation. However, there has been a scarcity of TSC candidates, and the experimental signatures that identify a TSC are often elusive.

Topology stabilized fluctuations in a magnetic nodal semimetal.

The interplay between magnetism and electronic band topology enriches topological phases and has promising applications. However, the role of topology in magnetic fluctuations has been elusive. Here, we report evidence for topology stabilized magnetism above the magnetic transition temperature in magnetic Weyl semimetal candidate CeAlGe.

Direct equations to retention time calculation and fast simulation approach for simultaneous material selection and experimental design in comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography.

Column selection and experimental design are recognized to be wear-and-tear processes to obtain a good fingerprinting result with comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC). The processes involve a large number of experiments for analysis of each sample due to the optimized conditions depending on the selected column sets. In this study, the analytical solutions of time summation model combined with temperature dependent linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) were derived for constant flow separation in GC × GC.
