    DFT based investigation of Se doped MgMo6S8-ySey as promising cathode materials for Mg-ion battery application

    Structural properties

    The Chevrel phase (CP) of MgMo6S8 conforms to triclinic structure with a space group of \(P\overline{1 }\) (No. 2)7. Figure 1(a) and Fig. 1(b) depict the schematic crystal structure of MgMo6S8 and MgMo6S6Se2 respectively…

    Single-shot readout of the nuclear spin of an on-surface atom

    Single-shot readout

    We investigate individual Ti atoms on the oxygen binding site of an MgO/Ag(100) substrate (see “Methods”), which have been shown to carry an electron spin S = 1/2 that can be ESR driven by an RF voltage at the STM…

    Néel spin-orbit torque in antiferromagnetic quantum spin and anomalous Hall insulators

    Formalism

    We extend the Kane-Mele model by including a collinear AFM order which is exchange coupled to the electrons on a 2D honeycomb lattice. As illustrated in Fig. 1, the magnetic moments on the A and B sublattices are oppositely aligned and…

  • Efficient sparse state preparation via quantum walks

    Efficient sparse state preparation via quantum walks

    One of the most powerful optimization methods we utilize is control reduction. The number of CX gates necessary to implement the multi-controlled Rz and Rx gates is proportional to the number of controls on those gates. As mentioned earlier, we…
