    Abstract Understanding of the intimate cross-coupling between electric and magnetic degrees of freedom in solids usually requires sophisticated models and time-consuming calculation methods. Instead of macroscopic symmetry analysis, we present a simple but general approach to explore the microscopic mechanism of magnetoelectric (ME) effects in magnetic ordered materials based on local spin and lattice symmetry analysis. Our methods are successfully applied to Cr$_2$O$_3$ and orthorhombic RMnO$_3$ with linear and quadratic ME effects, respectively. We revealed all the possible microscopic origins of every non-zero ME coefficients that cannot be easily fulfilled by other theoretical methods. Moreover, the contribution from each mechanism can be located down to specific spins or spin pairs. Our theoretical approach is capable of providing a detailed guide to explore rich spin-induced magnetoelectrics with strong ME effects.

    Abstract One of the biggest challenges faced by the layered manganese oxide MnO₂ used as a supercapacitor cathode is the capacity fading caused by chemo-mechanical degradation and/or structural transformation occurring in the discharging/charging process. Here, based on systematical experimental measurements and theoretical calculations, we show that both the stability and rate performance of the δ-MnO₂ supercapacitor cathode can be significantly enhanced by Al doping. Compared with pure δ-MnO₂, Al doping (δ-Al₀.₀₆MnO₂) clearly improves the specific capacitance (7% enhancement at 0.1 mA cm⁻²) and cycling stability (12% enhancement after 5000 cycles) simultaneously. These improvements can be attributed to the enhanced electronic transport and formation of more active sites, which are introduced by Al doping. Additionally, our calculations demonstrate that the doped systems (Al atoms located at Mn or O sites) show smaller surface energies than that of pure δ-MnO₂, which hinders side reactions or structure transformations and leads to a better cycling lifetime. Our work gives a comprehensive understanding of the impacts on the performance of δ-MnO₂ introduced by Al doping, and provides a feasible scheme to study the electrochemical mechanism of metal-doped δ-MnO₂.

    Abstract Vanadium carbides have attracted much attention as highly active catalysts in both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER), while a satisfactory understanding of the underlying mechanisms still remains a challenge. Herein we apply first-principles calculations to systematically analyze the crystal structures, electronic properties, free energies during the HER and OER processes, surface energies and crystal formation energies of the three types of vanadium carbides,

    Abstract The nature of the hidden-order (HO) state in URu_{2}Si_{2} remains one of the major unsolved issues in heavy-fermion physics. Recently, torque magnetometry, x-ray diffraction, and elastoresistivity data have suggested that the HO phase transition at T_{HO}≈ 17.5  K is driven by electronic nematic effects. Here, we search for thermodynamic signatures of this purported structural instability using anisotropic thermal expansion, Young's modulus, elastoresistivity, and specific-heat measurements. In contrast to the published results, we find no evidence of a rotational symmetry breaking in any of our data. Interestingly, our elastoresistivity measurements, which are in full agreement with published results, exhibit a Curie-Weiss divergence, which we however attribute to a volume and not to a symmetry-breaking effect. Finally, clear evidence for thermal fluctuations is observed in our heat-capacity data, from which we estimate the HO correlation length.

    Abstract Magnetic topological semimetals provide new opportunities for power generation and solid-state cooling based on thermoelectric (TE) effect. The interplay between magnetism and nontrivial band topology prompts the magnetic topological semimetals to yield strong transverse TE effect, while the longitudinal TE performance is usually poor. Herein, it is demonstrated that the magnetic Weyl semimetal TbPtBi has high value for both transverse and longitudinal thermopower with large power factor (PF). At 300 K and 13.5 Tesla, the transverse thermopower and PF reach up to 214 µV K

    Abstract The kagome materials AV4$_3$Sb$_5$ (A = K, Rb, Cs) host an intriguing interplay between unconventional superconductivity and charge-density-waves. Here, we investigate CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ by combining high-resolution thermal-expansion, heat-capacity and electrical resistance under strain measurements. We directly unveil that the superconducting and charge-ordered states strongly compete, and that this competition is dramatically influenced by tuning the crystallographic c-axis. In addition, we report the absence of additional bulk phase transitions within the charge-ordered state, notably associated with rotational symmetry-breaking within the kagome planes. This suggests that any breaking of the C$_6$ invariance occurs via different stacking of C$_6$-symmetric kagome patterns. Finally, we find that the charge-density-wave phase exhibits an enhanced A$_{1g}$-symmetric elastoresistance coefficient, whose large increase at low temperature is driven by electronic degrees of freedom.
