Theoretical investigation on magnetic property of monolayer CrI3 from microscale to macroscale

Abstract

Magnetic two-dimensional (2D) materials have received tremendous attention recently due to its potential application in spintronics and other magnetism related fields. To our knowledge, five kinds of 2D materials with intrinsic magnetism have been synthesized in experiment. They are CrI3, Cr2Ge2Te6, FePS3, Fe3GeTe2 and VSe2. Apart from the above intrinsic magnetic 2D materials, many strategies have also been proposed to induce magnetism in normal 2D materials such as atomic modification, spin valve and proximity effect. Various devices have also been designed to fulfill the basic functions of spintronics: inducing spin, manipulating spin and detecting spin.

Spin disorder competing with positional symmetry breaking governs the metal-insulator behavior in oxide paramagnets

Numerous transition-metal oxides have low-temperature, long-range-ordered antiferromagnetic (AFM) states that are generally insulating, and high-temperature, disordered paramagnetic (PM) phases. The latter can be either insulating (predicted here for NaFeO3), or metallic (predicted here and previously observed in NaOsO3). Similar distinctions have been traditionally affected in strongly correlated models by the value used for Coulomb repulsion U. Here we show an alternative, strong-correlation-free (U=0) view suggesting that the distinction between insulating and metallic PM phases is governed by the competition between local magnetic moment disorder and the polymorphous distribution of off-center atomic displacements. Such parameter-free, energy-lowering symmetry breaking density functional calculations provide a framework for understanding metal-insulator behaviors across different quantum materials in terms of measurable local structural and magnetic parameters.

Digital Twin of an Argon-Hydrogen Plasma Reactor

The principal proof of concept revolves around an argon-hydrogen plasma reactor that melts, reduces, atomizes and quenches critical raw material in one step, with premium spherical powder as the deliverable output and control of the composition chemistry. Each usage of the reactor is monitored through thermocouples and pressure sensors, which provide a daily data source of the real-world experiments. The reactor is modeled through COMSOL Multiphysics, which represents the core solver used to provide multiphysics simulations. The usage of COMSOL is complemented with Artificial Intelligence (AI) models, to enable seamless data assimilation and optimization. This paper presents the COMSOL twin of the reaction chamber and converging-diverging nozzle, together with a custom phase-change particle-tracing layer validated on Ti-6Al-4V (Ti64). Moreover, we highlight how the synergy between COMSOL simulations and AI-based digital surrogates can be leveraged to build self-consistent optimization loops geared toward (i) fully autonomous live control of the reactor and (ii) optimization of the process.

Efficient calculation of inductive coupling for arrays of wire ring resonators

Generalization of the inductance to the case of non-quasistatic electromagnetic field oscillations appears to be fruitful when considering wireless power transfer and RF metamaterials consisting of thin wire loop meta-atoms. When dealing with large systems of interacting loops carrying currents, efficiency and precision of calculation in the presence of retardation is crucial. In this work, we derive a series expansion of such generalized inductance and propose a way for its efficient numerical approximation. Illustrative examples are provided both for inductance convergence of a pair of two loops and extinction efficiency for scattering by metamaterial samples.
