The Behavior of the Intercalant AlCl_4 Anion during the Formation of Graphite Intercalation Compound: An X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Study
This work aims to study the insertion of AlCl_4^- anion in the crystalline structure of oriented pyrolytic graphite (PG) at the point of view of the anion itself. The electronic and atomic structures of the anion at different intercalation stages are studied. In particular double-edge (bicolor) X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Al and Cl K-edges is carried out, highlighting a contraction of the anion bonding at the highest intercalation degree obtained electrochemically (stage 3), while the …

Electrolyte effects on the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction: a mean-field approach
This paper introduces the combination of an advanced double layer model with electrochemical kinetics to explain electrolyte effects on the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction. It is known from experimental studies that the alkaline hydrogen evolution current shows a strong dependence on the concentration and identity of cations in the electrolyte, but is independent of pH. To explain these effects, we formulate the faradaic current in terms of the electric potential in the double layer, which…

Exchange Interactions in Rare-earth Magnets $A_2$PrO$_3$ ($A$= alkali metals): Revisited
Rare-earth materials hold promise to realize exotic magnetic states owing to synergy between electron correlations and spin-orbit coupling. Recently, quasi-two-dimensional honeycomb magnets $A_2$PrO$_3$ ($A$ = alkali metals) were predicted to be good candidates for Kitaev quantum spin liquids, as the Kitaev-type bond-dependent anisotropic interactions dominate over bond-independent isotropic Heisenberg ones. However, experimental observations are negative, questioning the energy hierarchy in Pr…

Isotropic to nematic transition in alcohol ferrofluids of barium hexaferrite nanoplatelets
Alcohol ferrofluids made of ferrimagnetic barium hexaferrite (BHF) nanoplatelets (NPLs) form a unique example of a dipolar fluid - a liquid magnet. Its formation is induced at a high enough concentration of the NPLs. The key interactions between the NPLs are long-ranged dipolar magnetic and screened anisotropic electrostatic. Herein, we report the results on tuning the isotropic-nematic phase transition (i.e., the NPLs threshold concentration) in 1-butanol ferrofluids of BHF NPLs by affecting t…

An electronic structure investigation of PEDOT with AlCl4- anions, a promising redox combination for energy storage applications
The conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) is one of the most researched materials. The 1980s bipolaron model remains the dominant interpretation of the electronic structure of PEDOT. Recent theoretical studies have provided updated definitions of key concepts such as bipolarons or polaron pairs, but these have not yet become widely known. In this work, we use density functional theory to investigate the electronic structure of PEDOT oligomers with co-located AlCl4- anions,…

Inclusive studies of two- and three-nucleon short-range correlations in $^3$H and $^3$He
Inclusive electron scattering at carefully chosen kinematics can isolate scattering from short-range correlations (SRCs), produced through hard, short-distance interactions of nucleons in the nucleus. Because the two-nucleon (2N) SRCs arise from the same N-N interaction in all nuclei, the cross section in the SRC-dominated regime is identical up to an overall scaling factor, and the A/2H cross section ratio is constant in this region. This scaling behavior has been used to identify SRC dominanc…

Spin-glass states generated in van der Waals magnet Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$ by alkali-ion intercalation
Tuning magnetic properties in layered van der Waals (vdW) materials has captured a significant attention due to the efficient control of ground-states by heterostructuring and external stimuli. Electron doping by electrostatic gating, interfacial charge transfer and intercalation is particularly effective in manipulating the exchange and spin-orbit properties, resulting in a control of Curie temperature ($T_{\text{C}}$) and magnetic anisotropy. Here, we discover an uncharted role of intercalati…

Effect of Substitution Group on Intramolecular Hydrogen Bond of Amino Alcohols from Raman spectroscopy
Due to the simultaneous presence of two polar functional groups and flexible spatial structure, Aminoethanol (AE) is a model system for investigating the relationship between intramolecular hydrogen bonding and conformational equlibrium. In addition, Aminoethanol and their derivatives exhibit remarkable efficacy in the reversible capture of carbon dioxide. The intramoleculr hydrogen bond of 2-AE is determined by a subtle balance between electrostatic interactions, Van der Waals interactions, an…

Electric Field Induced Associations in the Double Layer of Salt-in-Ionic-Liquid Electrolytes
Ionic liquids (ILs) are an extremely exciting class of electrolytes for energy storage applications because of their unique combination of properties. Upon dissolving alkali metal salts, such as Li or Na based salts, with the same anion as the IL, an intrinsically asymmetric electrolyte can be created for use in batteries, known as a salt-in-ionic liquid (SiIL). These SiILs have been well studied in the bulk, where negative transference numbers of the alkali metal cation have been observed from…
