Unlocking Ultra‐Long Cycle Stability of Li Metal Electrode by Separators Modified by Porous Red Phosphorus Nanosheets

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Coating the standard polypropylene separator with a porous red phosphorous nanosheet greatly improves cycling performance in Li electrode cells. The phosphorus‐based surface chemistry deactivates electrolyte solvent decomposition and enhances the cleavage of F‐containing salt, resulting in an inorganic‐dominated electrolyte interphase (SEI) composition

Quantum Simulations of Lattice Gauge Theories using Ultracold Atoms in Optical Lattices

, 2015
Can high energy physics be simulated by low-energy, non-relativistic, many-body systems, such as ultracold atoms? Such ultracold atomic systems lack the type of symmetries and dynamical properties of high energy physics models: in particular, they ...

Cu‐Based MOF/TiO2 Composite Nanomaterials for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Generation and the Role of Copper

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
HKUST‐1/TiO2 composite materials show a very high photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate which increases as a function of the irradiation time until reaching a plateau and even surpasses the performance of the 1%Pt/TiO2 material after three photocatalytic cycles.

Gauging C on the lattice

Journal of High Energy Physics
We discuss general aspects of charge conjugation symmetry in Euclidean lattice field theories, including its dynamical gauging. Our main focus is O(2) = U(1) ⋊ ℤ2 gauge theory, which we construct using a non-abelian generalization of the Villain ...

Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.

Entanglement and Rényi entropies of (1+1)-dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model with tensor renormalization group

Journal of High Energy Physics
We investigate the entanglement and Rényi entropies for the (1+1)-dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model using the tensor renormalization group method. The central charge is determined from the asymptotic scaling properties of both entropies.

Real scalar phase transitions: a nonperturbative analysis

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We study the thermal phase transitions of a generic real scalar field, without a Z 2-symmetry, referred to variously as an inert, sterile or singlet scalar, or ϕ 3 + ϕ 4 theory.

Quantum lattice gauge fields and groupoid C*-algebras [PDF]

, 2017
We present an operator-algebraic approach to the quantization and reduction of lattice field theories. Our approach uses groupoid C*-algebras to describe the observables and exploits Rieffel induction to implement the quantum gauge symmetries.

Preconditioned flow as a solution to the hierarchical growth problem in the generalized Lefschetz thimble method

Journal of High Energy Physics
The generalized Lefschetz thimble method is a promising approach that attempts to solve the sign problem in Monte Carlo methods by deforming the integration contour using the flow equation.
