We study the magnetic properties and the superconducting pairing mediated by spin fluctuations on the metallic kagome lattice by using the Hubbard model and the fluctuation exchange approximation. It is found that the spin susceptibility is caused by the nesting of the renormalized Fermi surface. We point out that superconductivity will be favored in the spin-singlet channel and may be more easily realized around 25% hole doping. We find an evolution of the pairing state from a d-wave-like symmetry, described by the E(2g) representation of the group D(6h) at low dopings, to that described by the A(2g) representation at heavy hole dopings.

Alkali element doping has significant physical implications for two-dimensional materials, primarily by tuning the electronic structure and carrier concentration. It can enhance interface electronic interactions, providing opportunities for effective charge transfer at metal-organic interfaces. In this work, we investigated the effects of gradually increasing the level of K doping on the lattice structure and electronic properties of an organometallic coordinated Kagome lattice on a Ag(111) surface.

Investigating material properties is essential to assessing their application potential. While computational methods allow for a fast prediction of the material structure and properties, experimental validation is essential to determining the ultimate material potential. Herein, we report the synthesis and experimental magnetic properties of three previously reported Kagome compounds in the Li-Fe-Ge system.

Reducing carbon dioxide (CO) emissions has become increasingly urgent for China, particularly in the industrial sector. Striking a balance between a high CO adsorption capacity and long-term stability under practical conditions is crucial for effectively capturing CO from flue gas. In this study, a series of functionalized MFM-136 adsorbents were synthesized in which -NO and -NH groups were grafted onto the kagome lattice of MFM-136.

Article Synopsis
  • Zero thermal expansion (ZTE) metals are highly desired for their ability to maintain dimensional stability, but their use is limited due to a small temperature range and brittleness.
  • Researchers developed a new ZTE alloy (HoFeNi) by incorporating nickel, which broadens the operable temperature range while enhancing the ferromagnetic properties of the iron within it.
  • The addition of excess iron improves the alloy's compressive strength and maintains ZTE characteristics, suggesting that this chemical design could lead to the creation of more effective ZTE alloys in the future.

CoSn and FeSn, two kagome-lattice metals, have recently attracted significant attention as hosts of electronic flat bands and emergent physical properties. However, current understandings of their physical properties are limited to knowledge of the average crystal structure. Here, we report the Fe-doping induced coemergence of the antiferromagentic (AFM) order and local symmetry breaking in (CoFe)Sn.
