Exchange coupling constants (J) are fundamental to the understanding of spin spectra of magnetic systems. Here, we investigate the broken-symmetry (BS) approaches of Noodleman and Yamaguchi in conjunction with coupled cluster (CC) methods to obtain exchange couplings. J values calculated from CC in this fashion converge smoothly toward the full configuration interaction result with increasing level of CC excitation. We compare this BS-CC scheme to the complementary equation-of-motion CC approach on a selection of bridged molecular cases and give results from a few other methodologies for context.

The cadmium-rich intermetallic compounds RhCd ( = Ca, Sr, Y, La-Nd, Sm-Lu) were synthesized from the elements in sealed tantalum tubes. The elements were reacted in an induction furnace and the samples were post-annealed to increase phase purity and crystallinity. The RhCd phases crystallize with the cubic CeCrAl type structure, space group 3̄.

Effect of Hubbard U-corrections on the electronic and magnetic properties of 2D materials: a high-throughput study.

We conduct a systematic investigation of the role of Hubbard U corrections in electronic structure calculations of two-dimensional (2D) materials containing 3 transition metals. Specifically, we use density functional theory (DFT) with the PBE and PBE+U approximations to calculate the crystal structure, band gaps, and magnetic parameters of 638 monolayers. Based on a comprehensive comparison to experiments we first establish that the inclusion of the U correction worsens the accuracy for the lattice constants.

Amphiphilic polymers with distinct polarity differences, known as sharp polarity contrast polymers (SPCPs), have gained much attention for their ability to form micelles with low critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) and potential in anticancer drug delivery. This study addresses the limited research on structure-property relationships of SPCPs by developing various SPCPs and exploring their physicochemical properties and biological applications. Specifically, the superhydrophobic aliphatic palmitoyl (Pal) was coupled to the superhydrophilic zwitterionic poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (pMPC) to form Pal-pMPC diblock copolymers.

Attosecond Rescattering of Laser-Assisted Electron-Proton Collision in Coulomb Potential.

J Phys Chem A

Department of Chemistry, University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

This study investigates the motion of an electron in a Coulomb potential driven by an intense linearly polarized XUV laser pulse analyzed using Gordon-Volkov wave functions. The wave function is decomposed into spherical partial waves to model the scattered electron wave packet after the recollision with a proton. This interaction triggers high harmonic generation, producing coherent X-ray pulses with frequencies that are integer multiples of the XUV field.

Five alkali metal manganese(III) fluorophosphates, KMn(POF)F (I), RbMn(POF)F (II), RbMn(POF)(PO)F (III), RbMn(POF)(PO)F (IV), and CsMn(POF)F (V), were successfully synthesized using a hydrothermal method. The monofluorophosphate anion (POF) groups work as "chemical scissors" to promote low-dimensional spin structures with the aid of alkali metal cations. I and II had an = 2 uniform chain structure formed by corner-sharing -MnOF octahedra.
