Large Enhancement of Ferromagnetism under a Collective Strong Coupling of YBCO Nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Light-Matter strong coupling in the vacuum limit has been shown, over the past decade, to enhance material properties. Oxide nanoparticles are known to exhibit weak ferromagnetism due to vacancies in the lattice. Here we report the 700-fold enhancement of the ferromagnetism of YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x nanoparticles under a cooperative strong coupling at room temperature. The magnetic moment reaches 0.90 μ_B/mol, and with such a high value, it competes with YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x superconductivity at low temperatures. This strong ferromagnetism at room temperature suggest that strong coupling is a new tool for the development of next-generation magnetic and spintronic nanodevices.

Polaritonic Chemistry: Collective Strong Coupling Implies Strong Local Modification of Chemical Properties.

Project description:A fundamental question in the field of polaritonic chemistry is whether collective coupling implies local modifications of chemical properties scaling with the ensemble size. Here we demonstrate from first-principles that an impurity present in a collectively coupled chemical ensemble features such locally scaling modifications. In particular, we find the formation of a novel dark state for a nitrogen dimer chain of variable size, whose local chemical properties are altered considerably at the impurity due to its embedding in the collectively coupled environment. Our simulations unify theoretical predictions from quantum optical models (e.g., collective dark states and bright polaritonic branches) with the single molecule quantum chemical perspective, which relies on the (quantized) redistribution of charges leading to a local hybridization of light and matter. Moreover, our findings suggest that recently developed ab initio methods for strong light-matter coupling are suitable to access these local polaritonic effects and provide a detailed understanding of photon-modified chemistry.

Lasing by driven atoms-cavity system in collective strong coupling regime.

Project description:The interaction of laser cooled atoms with resonant light is determined by the natural linewidth of the excited state. An optical cavity is another optically resonant system where the loss from the cavity determines the resonant optical response of the system. The near resonant combination of an optical Fabry-Pérot cavity with laser cooled and trapped atoms couples two distinct optical resonators via light and has great potential for precision measurements and the creation of versatile quantum optics systems. Here we show how driven magneto-optically trapped atoms in collective strong coupling regime with the cavity leads to lasing at a frequency red detuned from the atomic transition. Lasing is demonstrated experimentally by the observation of a lasing threshold accompanied by polarization and spatial mode purity, and line-narrowing in the outcoupled light. Spontaneous emission into the cavity mode by the driven atoms stimulates lasing action, which is capable of operating as a continuous wave laser in steady state, without a seed laser. The system is modeled theoretically, and qualitative agreement with experimentally observed lasing is seen. Our result opens up a range of new measurement possibilities with this system.

Strong stress-composition coupling in lithium alloy nanoparticles.

Project description:The stress inevitably imposed during electrochemical reactions is expected to fundamentally affect the electrochemistry, phase behavior and morphology of electrodes in service. Here, we show a strong stress-composition coupling in lithium binary alloys during the lithiation of tin-tin oxide core-shell nanoparticles. Using in situ graphene liquid cell electron microscopy imaging, we visualise the generation of a non-uniform composition field in the nanoparticles during lithiation. Stress models based on density functional theory calculations show that the composition gradient is proportional to the applied stress. Based on this coupling, we demonstrate that we can directionally control the lithium distribution by applying different stresses to lithium alloy materials. Our results provide insights into stress-lithium electrochemistry coupling at the nanoscale and suggest potential applications of lithium alloy nanoparticles.

Strong coupling of collective intermolecular vibrations in organic materials at terahertz frequencies.

Project description:Several years ago, strong coupling between electronic molecular transitions and photonic structures was shown to modify the electronic landscape of the molecules and affect their chemical behavior. Since then, this concept has evolved into a new field known as polaritonic chemistry. An important ingredient in the progress of this field was the demonstration of strong coupling with intra-molecular vibrations, which enabled the modification of processes occurring at the electronic ground-state. Here we demonstrate strong coupling with collective, inter-molecular vibrations occurring in organic materials in the low-terahertz region ([Formula: see text]1012 Hz). Using a cavity filled with α-lactose molecules, we measure the temporal evolution and observe coherent Rabi oscillations, corresponding to a splitting of 68 GHz. These results take strong coupling into a new class of materials and processes, including skeletal polymer motions, protein dynamics, metal organic frameworks and other materials, in which collective, spatially extended degrees of freedom participate in the dynamics.

Cavity catalysis: modifying linear free-energy relationship under cooperative vibrational strong coupling.

Project description:Here, we used an unconventional idea of cooperative vibrational strong coupling of solute and solvent molecules to enhance the rate of an esterification reaction. Different derivatives of p-nitrophenyl benzoate (solute) and isopropyl acetate (solvent) are cooperatively coupled to an infrared Fabry-Perot cavity mode. The apparent rates are increased by more than six times at the ON resonance condition, and the rate enhancement follows the lineshape of the vibrational envelope. Very interestingly, a strongly coupled system doesn't obey the Hammett relations. Thermodynamics suggests that the reaction mechanism remains intact for cavity and non-cavity conditions. Temperature-dependent experiments show an entropy-driven process for the coupled molecules. Vacuum field coupling decreases the free energy of activation by 2-5 kJ mol-1, supporting a catalysis process. The non-linear rate enhancement can be due to the reshuffling of the energy distribution between the substituents and the reaction center across the aromatic ring. These findings underline the non-equilibrium behavior of cavity catalysis.

Pressure Engineering Promising Transparent Oxides with Large Conductivity Enhancement and Strong Thermal Stability.

Project description:Transparent conducting oxides (TCO) with high electrical conductivity and high visible light transparency are desired for a wide range of high-impact engineering. Yet, usually, a compromise must be made between conductivity and transparency, limiting the practical application of a TCO to the next level. Furthermore, TCO performance is highly sensitive to composition, so conventional synthesis methods, such as chemical doping, cannot unravel the mysteries of the quantitative structure-performance relationship. Thus, improving the fundamental understanding or creating materials-by-design has limited success. Here, a strategy is proposed to modulate the lattice and electronic and optical properties precisely by applying pressure on a TCO. Strikingly, after compression-decompression treatment on the indium titanium oxides (ITiO), a highly transparent and metastable phase with two orders of magnitude enhancement in conductivity is synthesized from an irreversible phase transition. Moreover, this phase possesses previously unattainable filter efficiency on hazardous blue light up to 600 °C, providing potential for healthcare-related applications with strong thermal stability up to 200 °C. These results demonstrate that pressure engineering is a clean and effective tool for tailoring functional materials that are not achievable by other means, providing an exciting alternative property-tuning dimension in materials science.

The enhancement of the quantum efficiency is attributed to enhanced absorption and increased radiative decay rate.

Stimuli-responsive SERS nanoparticles: conformational control of plasmonic coupling and surface Raman enhancement.

Project description:Stimuli-responsive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoparticles have been developed by using colloidal gold nanocrystals and a class of thiolated block copolymers consisting of a pH-responsive polymer segment, an amphiphilic polyethylene glycol segment, and a lipoic acid anchoring group. The results demonstrate that SERS signals can be switched on and off by molecular conformations in response to pH. An important finding is that neutralized polymethacrylic acid (PMAA) molecules are able to interact with amphiphilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains, leading to highly compact and intermingled copolymer structures on the surface of nanoparticles. This type of molecular conformation change provides a new strategy for controlling plasmonic coupling and electromagnetic Raman enhancement and raises the possibility of using SERS nanoparticle tags for biomolecular binding and enzymatic cleavage studies.

Orthotropic Laminated Open-cell Frameworks Retaining Strong Auxeticity under Large Uniaxial Loading.

Project description:Anisotropic materials form inside living tissue and are widely applied in engineered structures, where sophisticated structural and functional design principles are essential to employing these materials. This paper presents a candidate laminated open-cell framework, which is an anisotropic material that shows remarkable mechanical performance. Using additive manufacturing, artificial frameworks are fabricated by lamination of in-plane orthotropic microstructures made of elbowed beam and column members; this fabricated structure features orthogonal anisotropy in three-dimensional space. Uniaxial loading tests reveal strong auxeticity (high negative Poisson's ratios) in the out-of-plane direction, which is retained reproducibly up to the nonlinear elastic region, and is equal under tensile and compressive loading. Finite element simulations support the observed auxetic behaviors for a unit cell in the periodic framework, which preserve the theoretical elastic properties of an orthogonal solid. These findings open the possibility of conceptual materials design based on geometry.

Surface Modification and Enhancement of Ferromagnetism in BiFeO3 Nanofilms Deposited on HOPG.

Project description:BiFeO3 (BFO) films on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) substrate were obtained by the atomic layer deposition (ALD) method. The oxidation of HOPG leads to the formation of bubble regions creating defective regions with active centers. Chemisorption occurs at these active sites in ALD. Additionally, carbon interacts with ozone and releases carbon oxides (CO, CO2). Further annealing during the in situ XPS process up to a temperature of 923 K showed a redox reaction and the formation of oxygen vacancies (Vo) in the BFO crystal lattice. Bubble delamination creates flakes of BiFeO3-x/rGO heterostructures. Magnetic measurements (M-H) showed ferromagnetism (FM) at room temperature Ms ~ 120 emu/cm3. The contribution to magnetization is influenced by the factor of charge redistribution on Vo causing the distortion of the lattice as well as by the superstructure formed at the boundary of two phases, which causes strong hybridization due to the superexchange interaction of the BFO film with the FM sublattice of the interface region. The development of a method for obtaining multiferroic structures with high FM values (at room temperature) is promising for magnetically controlled applications.
