AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Stripe phases are predicted and observed to occur in a class of strongly correlated materials describable as doped antiferromagnets, of which the copper-oxide superconductors are the most prominent representatives. The existence of stripe correlations necessitates the development of new principles for describing charge transport and especially superconductivity in these materials.

Control of the Phase Distribution in TMDs by Strain Engineering and Kirigami Techniques.
J Phys Chem Lett
January 2025
Physical Science and Engineering Division, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Thuwal 23955-6900, Saudi Arabia.
Materials exhibiting both metallic and semiconducting states, including two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), have numerous applications. We therefore investigate the effects of axial and shear strains on the phase energetics of pristine and striped TMDs using density functional theory and classical molecular dynamics simulations. We demonstrate that control of the phase distribution can be achieved by the integration of strain engineering and Kirigami techniques.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines how varying annealing temperatures affect the microstructure, chemical composition, phase structure, and piezoelectric properties of ZnO films.
- Findings indicate that while annealing generally increases grain size and improves crystal structure, too much heat can degrade the structure due to changes in oxygen content.
- ZnO films annealed at 400 °C show the best piezoelectric performance, indicating the importance of optimizing annealing conditions for sensor applications.
The Effect of Spray Regimes on the Population Dynamics of Selected Field Pests and Their Effect on Grain Yield and Yield Components of Common Bean in Uganda.
Insects
December 2024
National Crops Resources Research Institute, Namulonge, Kampala P.O. Box 7084, Uganda.
In Uganda, the common bean () is often infested by a complex of insect pests, but bean flies, aphids, bean leaf beetles, and flower thrips are the most important. Whereas yield losses due to these pests have been established, there is limited information on their population dynamics at different stages of crop growth and their effect on yield and yield components. In order to describe the population dynamics of selected common bean pests at various phases of bean crop growth, and their impact on yield and yield components, a study was carried out in Uganda during the 2016 second rains and the 2017 first rains in three agro-ecological zones.

Functional Materials Research Laboratory, School of Materials Science and Engineering, Tongji University, Shanghai 201804, P. R. China.
Polar vortices are predominantly observed within the confined ferroelectric films and the ferroelectric/paraelectric superlattices. This raises the intriguing question of whether polar vortices can form within relaxor ferroelectric ceramics and subsequently contribute to their energy storage performances. Here, we incorporate 10 mol % CaSnO into the 0.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores the connection between d-wave superconductivity and stripe phases in high-temperature cuprate superconductors, revealing how anisotropic couplings can enhance critical temperatures.
- Recent advancements in quantum simulators using ultracold atoms allow for the experimentation and observation of these phenomena in real-time at a detailed level.
- The research presents evidence of stripe formation in a cold-atom Fermi-Hubbard simulator, showing attractive correlations between dopants and suggesting the presence of a precursor to the stripe phase, which involves complex charge and spin ordering.
