Strong Repulsion

The thermodynamic impact of the Coulomb repulsion on s-wave superconductors is analyzed via a rigorous study of equilibrium and ground states of the strong coupling BCS-Hubbard Hamiltonian. We show that the one-site electron repulsion can favor superconductivity at fixed chemical potential by increasing the critical temperature and/or the Cooper pair condensate density. If the one-site repulsion is not too large, a first or a second order superconducting phase transition can appear at low temperatures. The Meißner effect is shown to be rather generic but coexistence of superconducting and ferromagnetic phases is also shown to be feasible, for instance, near half-filling and at strong repulsion. Our proof of a superconductor-Mott insulator phase transition implies a rigorous explanation of the necessity of doping insulators to create superconductors. These mathematical results are consequences of "quantum large deviation" arguments combined with an adaptation of the proof of Størmer's theorem [1] to even states on the CAR algebra.

Abstract In recent years, the discovery of "magic angle" graphene has given new inspiration to the formation of heterojunctions. Similarly, the use of hexagonal boron nitride, known as white graphene, as a substrate for graphene devices has more aroused great interest in the graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (G/hBN) heterostructure system. Based on the first principles method of density functional theory, the band structure, density of states, Mulliken population, and differential charge density of a tightly packed model of twisted graphene/hexagonal boron nitride/graphene (G/hBN/G) sandwich structure have been studied. Through the establishment of heterostructure models TBG inserting hBN with different twisted angles, it was found that the band gap, Mulliken population, and charge density, exhibited specific evolution regulars with the rotation angle of the upper graphene, showing novel electronic properties and realizing metal-insulator phase transition. We find that the particular value of the twist angle at which the metal-insulator phase transition occurs and propose a rotational regulation mechanism with angular periodicity. Our results have guiding significance for the practical application of heterojunction electronic devices.

Insulator Phase Transition

Lanthanum calcium based perovskites are found to be advantageous for the possible applications in magnetic sensors/reading heads, cathodes in solid oxide fuel cells, and frequency switching devices. In the present investigation La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites were synthesised through solid state reaction and sintered at four different temperatures such as 900, 1000, 1100 and 1200˚ C. X-ray powder diffraction pattern confirms that the prepared La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites have orthorhombic structure with Pnma space group. Ultrasonic in-situ measurements have been carried out on the La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites over wide range of temperature and elastic constants such as bulk modulus of the prepared La0.3Ca0.7MnO3 perovskites was obtained as function of temperature. The temperature-dependent bulk modulus has shown an interesting anomaly at the metal-insulator phase transition. The metal insulator transition temperature derived from temperature-dependent bulk modulus increases from temperature 352˚ C to 367˚ C with the increase of sintering temperature from 900 to 1200˚ C.

In this work, two new redox-active ionic liquids, one based on 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxide and the other based on 4,4′-bipyridine, are synthesized and characterized. A ferrocene-based redox-active ionic liquid is used for referencing the results. All ionic liquids are formed via salt-metathesis from halogenate to bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide. Their fundamental thermal characteristics are assessed with differential scanning calorimetry. While the imidazolium ionic liquids show no melting point, the phase transition is well observable for the viologen-based ionic liquid. The properties of the neat redox-active ionic liquids and of binary mixtures containing these ionic liquids (0.1 m) and 1-butyl-1-methyl pyrrolidinium-bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide have been investigated. Finally, the use of these binary mixtures in combination with activated carbon-based electrodes has been considered in view of the use of these redox-active electrolytes in supercapacitors.
