Title: Perovskite nickelates as electric-field sensors in salt water

Abstract

Designing materials to function in harsh environments, such as conductive aqueous media, is a problem of broad interest to a range of technologies, including energy, ocean monitoring and biological applications. The main challenge is to retain the stability and morphology of the material as it interacts dynamically with the surrounding environment. Materials that respond to mild stimuli through collective phase transitions and amplify signals could open up new avenues for sensing. Here we present the discovery of an electric-field-driven, water-mediated reversible phase change in a perovskite-structured nickelate, SmNiO₃. This prototypical strongly correlated quantum material is stable in salt water, does not corrode, and allows exchange of protons with the surrounding water at ambient temperature, with the concurrent modification in electrical resistance and optical properties being capable of multi-modal readout. Besides operating both as thermistors and pH sensors, devices made of this material can detect sub-volt electric potentials in salt water. Finally, we postulate that such devices could be used in oceanic environments for monitoring electrical signals from various maritime vessels and sea creatures

Correlated Perovskites as a New Platform for Super-Broadband-Tunable Photonics

Journal Article Li, Zhaoyi ; Zhou, You ; Qi, Hao ; ... - Advanced Materials

The electron-doping-induced phase transition of a prototypical perovskite SmNiO₃ induces a large and non-volatile optical refractive-index change and has great potential for active-photonic-device applications. Strong optical modulation from the visible to the mid-infrared is demonstrated using thin-film SmNiO₃. Finally, modulation of a narrow band of light is demonstrated in this paper using plasmonic metasurfaces integrated with SmNiO₃.

Temperature-independent thermal radiation

Journal Article Shahsafi, Alireza ; Roney, Patrick ; Zhou, You ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Thermal emission is the process by which all objects at nonzero temperatures emit light and is well described by the Planck, Kirchhoff, and Stefan–Boltzmann laws. For most solids, the thermally emitted power increases monotonically with temperature in a one-to-one relationship that enables applications such as infrared imaging and noncontact thermometry. Here, we demonstrated ultrathin thermal emitters that violate this one-to-one relationship via the use of samarium nickel oxide (SmNiO₃), a strongly correlated quantum material that undergoes a fully reversible, temperature-driven solid-state phase transition. The smooth and hysteresis-free nature of this unique insulator-to-metal phase transition enabled us to engineer the temperaturemore »« less

Habituation based synaptic plasticity and organismic learning in a quantum perovskite

Journal Article Zuo, Fan ; Panda, Priyadarshini ; Kotiuga, Michele ; ... - Nature Communications

A central characteristic of living beings is the ability to learn from and respond to their environment leading to habit formation and decision making. This behavior, known as habituation, is universal among all forms of life with a central nervous system, and is also observed in single-cell organisms that do not possess a brain. Here, we report the discovery of habituation-based plasticity utilizing a perovskite quantum system by dynamical modulation of electron localization. Microscopic mechanisms and pathways that enable this organismic collective charge-lattice interaction are elucidated by first-principles theory, synchrotron investigations, ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, and in situ environmentalmore »« less

Carrier localization in perovskite nickelates from oxygen vacancies

Journal Article Kotiuga, Michele ; Zhang, Zhen ; Li, Jiarui ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Point defects, such as oxygen vacancies, control the physical properties of complex oxides, relevant in active areas of research from superconductivity to resistive memory to catalysis. In most oxide semiconductors, electrons that are associated with oxygen vacancies occupy the conduction band, leading to an increase in the electrical conductivity. Here we demonstrate, in contrast, that in the correlated-electron perovskite rare-earth nickelates, R NiO ₃ ( R is a rare-earth element such as Sm or Nd), electrons associated with oxygen vacancies strongly localize, leading to a dramatic decrease in the electrical conductivity by several orders of magnitude. This unusual behavior ismore »« less

Nanostructured fibers as a versatile photonic platform: radiative cooling and waveguiding through transverse Anderson localization

Journal Article Shi, Norman Nan ; Tsai, Cheng-Chia ; Carter, Michael J. ; ... - Light, Science & Applications

Broadband high reflectance in nature is often the result of randomly, three-dimensionally structured materials. This study explores unique optical properties associated with one-dimensional nanostructures discovered in silk cocoon fibers of the comet moth, Argema mittrei. The fibers are populated with a high density of air voids randomly distributed across the fiber cross-section but are invariant along the fiber. These filamentary air voids strongly scatter light in the solar spectrum. A single silk fiber measuring ~50 μm thick can reflect 66% of incoming solar radiation, and this, together with the fibers’ high emissivity of 0.88 in the mid-infrared range, allows themore »« less
