The Role of Alkyl Chain Length and Halide Counter Ion in Layered Dion−Jacobson Perovskites with Aromatic Spacers

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Davide Moia, Joachim Maier, Loï Charles Carbone, Jovana Milic, George Cameron Fish, Algirdas Ducinskas, Michael Allan Hope

Layered hybrid perovskites based on Dion−Jacobson phases are of interest to various optoelectronic applications. However, the understanding of their structure−property relationships remains limited. Here, we present a systematic study of Dion−Jacobson pero ...

Long-range magnetic ordering in Li2MnGeO4 and precursor short-range spin correlations

Irina Safiulina, Artem Korshunov

Long-range magnetic ordering and short-range spin correlations in layered noncentrosymmetric orthogermanate Li2MnGeO4 were studied by means of polarized and unpolarized neutron scattering. The combined Rietveld refinement of synchrotron and neutron powder ...

Structural and Dynamical Properties of Potassium Dodecahydro-monocarba-closo-dodecaborate: KCB11H12

Wei Zhou, Mirjana Dimitrievska

MCB11H12 (M: Li, Na) dodecahydro-monocarba-closo-dodecaborate salt compounds are known to have stellar superionic Li+ and Na+ conductivities in their high-temperature disordered phases, making them potentially appealing electrolytes in all-solid-state batt ...

Neutron Diffraction and Diffraction Contrast Imaging for Mapping the TRIP Effect under Load Path Change

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Efthymios Polatidis, Markus Strobl

The transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) effect is investigated during a load path change using a cruciform sample. The transformation properties are followed by in-situ neutron diffraction derived from the central area of the cruciform sample. Additio ...

Structural characterization and magnetic properties of chromium jarosite KCr3(OD)(6)(SO4)(2)

Sofie Janas

Potassium chromium jarosite, KCr3(OH)(6)(SO4)(2) (Cr-jarosite), is considered a promising candidate to display spin liquid behavior due to the strong magnetic frustration imposed by the crystal structure. However, the ground state magnetic properties have ...

Refinement for single-nanoparticle structure determination from low-quality single-shot coherent diffraction data

Christophe Nicolas, Christoph Bostedt

With the emergence of X-ray free-electron lasers, it is possible to investigate the structure of nanoscale samples by employing coherent diffractive imaging in the X-ray spectral regime. In this work, we developed a refinement method for structure reconstr ...

Electrons leave the flatland: out-of-plane charge dynamics in layered materials

Edoardo Martino

The goal of this thesis is to explore the "neglected" third dimension of layered materials, by studying the interlayer charge dynamics through dc conductivity, optical spectroscopy and ab-initio calculations. This project was designed to respond to the gro ...

Atomistic origins of the limited phase stability of Cs+-rich FAxCs(1-x)PbI3 mixtures

Michael Graetzel, Ursula Röthlisberger, Simone Meloni, Dominik Józef Kubicki, David Lyndon Emsley, Ariadni Boziki, Aditya Mishra

Mixed cation perovskites, [HC(NH2)2]xCs(1-x)PbI3, (FAxCs(1-x)PbI3) with x=0.8 achieve high solar cell power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) while exhibiting long-term stability under ambient conditions. In this work, we perform density functional theory (DF ...

Inkjet-Printed Carbon Nanotube Electrodes Modified with Dimer-captosuccinic Acid-Capped Fe3O4 Nanoparticles on Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanosheets for Single-Drop Determination of Trifluoperazine

Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic

Here we report the design of a disposable single-drop voltammetric sensor for the quantitative determination of antipsy-chotic drug trifluoperazine (TFP). The sensor was build using inkjet-printed carbon nanotube (CNT) electrodes which were modified with d ...

Multiphase magnetism in Yb2Ti2O7

Gregory Scott Tucker

We use neutron scattering to show that ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism coexist in the low T state of the pyrochlore quantum magnet Yb2Ti2O7. While magnetic Bragg peaks evidence long-range static ferromagnetic order, inelastic scattering shows that sh ...
