In multilayer systems, extrinsic interfacial scattering, along with scattering from defects or impurities inside the materials, plays a crucial role in affecting the SOT efficiency. In this study, we successfully fabricated high-quality epitaxially grown [Ir/Pt]N superlattices with an increasing number of interfaces using a magnetron sputtering system to investigate the contribution of extrinsic interfacial scattering to SOT efficiency. We measured SOT efficiency through spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance methods and determined the spin Hall angle using the spin pumping technique. Additionally, we calculated spin transparency based on the SOT efficiency and spin Hall angle. Our findings indicate that the values of SOT efficiency, spin Hall angle, and spin transparency are enhanced in the superlattice structure compared to Pt, which we attribute to the increase in interfacial scattering.This research offers an effective strategy for designing and fabricating advanced spintronic devices.展开更多

However, the presence of La atoms at the B-site in ABX_(3) structures has not yet been observed. Under high pressure, perovskites exhibit unexpected phase transitions. In this study, we report the discovery of SbLaO_(3) under ambient pressure, with a space group of R3m. Mechanical property calculations indicate that it is a brittle material, and it possesses a band gap of 4.0266 e V, classifying it as an insulator.We also investigate the phase at 300 GPa, where the space group shifts to P2_(1/m). Additionally, the P2_(1/m) phase of LaInO_(3) under 300 GPa is explored. Ab initio molecular dynamics calculations reveal that the melting point of SbLaO_(3) is exceptionally high. The inclusion of Sb alters the electronic structure compared with LaInO_(3), and the Vickers hardness(H_(v)) is estimated to reach 20.97 GPa. This research provides insights into the phase transitions of perovskites under high pressure.展开更多

Currently, there is a growing interest in producing biobutanol from bioethanol, in view of the tremendous potential benefits of this transformation for the bulk production of biobutanol in a target specific manner. This perspective paper describes recent progress for the ethanol to butanol process. The different catalysts, including homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic systems, for ethanol to butanol are outlined and compared, and the key issues and requirements for future developments are highlighted. A major challenge for further development and application of ethanol to butanol process is to find an optimal balance between different catalytic functions and to suppress the formation of side products that has plagued most catalytic bioethanol upgrading systems.
