Sieving Hydrogen Isotopes via Machine Learning Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) of High‐Quality Monolayer Hexagonal Boron Nitride (h‐BN) on Iron Foils

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Sub‐atomic scale separation of hydrogen isotopes (H+/D+) require near pristine h‐BN membranes, and scalable synthesis of such high‐quality h‐BN comparable to mechanically exfoliated crystals remains a significant challenge. This study reports a scalable Fe‐catalyzed Machine‐Learning Enabled Chemical vapor deposition process for bottom‐up large‐area ...

Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging of Ferroelastic Domains

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A simple scanning electron microscopy technique, electron channeling contrast imaging, unveils nanoscale ferroelastic domains and their coupling to functional properties in oxide heterostructures. The work demonstrates high‐resolution mapping of both surface and buried domains, broadening the experimental toolbox for ferroic and quantum oxide systems ...

Asymmetry of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition in BaTiO3

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Phase transitions are typically assumed to behave identically in forward and reverse. This work shows that in the ferroelectric material barium titanate this is not true: heating drives an abrupt, first‐order jump, while cooling gives a smooth, continuous change.

High‐κ Perovskite‐Like Ternary Niobium Oxide Dielectrics for 2D Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
High‐κ dielectrics are vital for scaled electronics. Here, a family of 2D high‐κ perovskite‐like ternary niobium oxides is synthesized via a molten salt‐assisted method. Their integration into FETs and logic gates reveals superior switching characteristics, providing a fresh material platform and new insights for the advancement of high‐performance 2D ...
