Title Ferromagnetic order controlled by the magnetic interface of LaNiO3/La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 superlattices Type A1 Journal article

Abstract Interface engineering in complex oxide superlattices is a growing field, enabling manipulation of the exceptional properties of these materials, and also providing access to new phases and emergent physical phenomena. Here we demonstrate how interfacial interactions can induce a complex charge and spin structure in a bulk paramagnetic material. We investigate a superlattice (SLs) consisting of paramagnetic LaNiO3 (LNO) and highly spin-polarized ferromagnetic La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 (LCMO), grown on SrTiO3 (001) substrate. We observed emerging magnetism in LNO through an exchange bias mechanism at the interfaces in X-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity. We find non-symmetric interface induced magnetization profiles in LNO and LCMO which we relate to a periodic complex charge and spin superstructure. High resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy images reveal that the upper and lower interfaces exhibit no significant structural variations. The different long range magnetic order emerging in LNO layers demonstrates the enormous potential of interfacial reconstruction as a tool for tailored electronic properties.

Title Single-atom Catalysis Using Pt/Graphene Achieved through Atomic Layer Deposition Type A1 Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication Scientific Reports Abbreviated Journal
Volume 3 Issue Pages 1775
Keywords A1 Journal Article; Electron Microscopy for Materials Science (EMAT) ;
Abstract Platinum-nanoparticle-based catalysts are widely used in many important chemical processes and

automobile industries. Downsizing catalyst nanoparticles to single atoms is highly desirable to maximize

their use efficiency, however, very challenging. Here we report a practical synthesis for isolated single Pt

atoms anchored to graphene nanosheet using the atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique. ALD offers the

capability of precise control of catalyst size span from single atom, subnanometer cluster to nanoparticle.

The single-atom catalysts exhibit significantly improved catalytic activity (up to 10 times) over that of the

state-of-the-art commercial Pt/C catalyst. X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) analyses reveal that the

low-coordination and partially unoccupied densities of states of 5d orbital of Pt atoms are responsible for the

excellent performance. This work is anticipated to form the basis for the exploration of a next generation of

highly efficient single-atom catalysts for various applications.
