The Role of Structural and Compositional Heterogeneities in the Insulator-to-Metal Transition in Hole-Doped APd₃O₄ (A = Ca, Sr)

Journal Article Lamontagne, Leo K. ; Laurita, Geneva ; Knight, Michael ; ... - Inorganic Chemistry

The cubic semiconducting compounds APd₃O₄ (A = Ca, Sr) can be hole-doped by Na substitution on the A site and driven toward more conducting states. This process has been followed here by a number of experimental techniques to understand the evolution of electronic properties. While an insulator-to-metal transition is observed in Ca_1–xNa_xPd₃O₄ for x ≥ 0.15, bulk metallic behavior is not observed for Sr_1–xNa_xPd₃O₄ up to x = 0.20. Given the very similar crystal and (calculated) electronic structures of the two materials, the distinct behavior is a matter of interest. We present evidence of local disorder in the A =more »« less

Multiple Redox Modes in the Reversible Lithiation of High-Capacity, Peierls-Distorted Vanadium Sulfide

Journal Article Britto, Sylvia ; Leskes, Michal ; Hua, Xiao ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

Vanadium sulfide VS₄ in the patronite mineral structure, is a linear chain compound comprising vanadium atoms coordinated by disulfide anions [S₂]^2–. ⁵¹V NMR shows that the material, despite having V formally in the d¹ configuration, is diamagnetic, suggesting potential dimerization through metal-metal bonding associated with a Peierls distortion of the linear chains. This is supported by density functional calculations, and is also consistent with the observed alternation in V-V distances of 2.8 Å and 3.2 Å along the chains. Partial lithiation results in reduction of the disulfide ions to sulfide S^2–, including via an internal redox process whereby an electronmore »« less

Effect of chiral 2-ethylhexyl side chains on chiroptical properties of the narrow bandgap conjugated polymers PCPDTBT and PCDTPT

Journal Article Fronk, Stephanie L. ; Wang, Ming ; Ford, Michael ; ... - Chemical Science

Two narrow bandgap conjugated polymers containing chiral 2-ethylhexyl side chains were synthesized: poly[(4,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)cyclopenta-[2,1-b:3,4-b']dithiophene)-2,6-diyl-alt-(2,1,3-benzothiadiazole)-4,7-diyl] (PCPDTBT*) and poly[(4,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl)cyclopenta[2,1-b:3,4-b0]dithiophene)-2,6-diyl-alt-[1,2,5]-thiadiazolo[3,4-c]pyridine] (PCDTPT*). The presence of a chiral substituent provides a handle to study the geometry of interchain aggregates and/or the secondary structure of these conjugated polymers in solution and in thin films via circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, provided that the asymmetry in the side-chain is translated to the optically active conjugated backbone. CD signals are observed for PCPDTBT* and PCDTPT* in poor solvent systems, which indicate the presence of chiral ordering in the aggregates. PCPDTBT* shows greater chiral order than PCDTPT* based on their relativemore »« less

Computationally predicted energies and properties of defects in GaN

Journal Article Lyons, John L. ; Van de Walle, Chris G. - npj Computational Materials

Recent developments in theoretical techniques have significantly improved the predictive power of density-functional-based calculations. In this review, we discuss how such advancements have enabled improved understanding of native point defects in GaN. We review the methodologies for the calculation of point defects, and discuss how techniques for overcoming the band-gap problem of density functional theory affect native defect calculations. In particular, we examine to what extent calculations performed with semilocal functionals (such as the generalized gradient approximation), combined with correction schemes, can produce accurate results. The properties of vacancy, interstitial, and antisite defects in GaN are described, as well asmore »« less

Phase transformations upon doping in WO₃

Journal Article Wang, Wennie ; Janotti, Anderson ; Van de Walle, Chris G. - Journal of Chemical Physics

High levels of doping in WO₃ have been experimentally observed to lead to structural transformation towards higher symmetry phases. In this paper, we explore the structural phase diagram with charge doping through first-principles methods based on hybrid density functional theory, as a function of doping the room-temperature monoclinic phase transitions to the orthorhombic, tetragonal, and finally cubic phase. Finally, based on a decomposition of energies into electronic and strain contributions, we attribute the transformation to a gain in energy resulting from a lowering of the conduction band on an absolute energy scale.
