Non-thermal magnetic deicing using two-dimensional chromium telluride
Journal of Materials Chemistry C. 2024. Vol. 12. No. 46. P. 18691–18703.
Two-dimensional (2D) chromium telluride Cr2Te3 exhibits strong ferromagnetic ordering with high coercivity at low temperatures and paramagnetic behavior when approaching room temperature. The spin states of monolayer Cr2Te3 show ferromagnetic ordering in the ground state. In situ Raman analysis reveals a reversible structure transformation and hence proves ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transition during low-temperature heating cycles (0–25 °C). The magnetic phase transition near room temperature in 2D Cr2Te3 prompted an exploratory study of these layered materials for energy application. We demonstrate that the low-temperature ferromagnetic behavior can be used to magnetically deice material surfaces using an external magnetic source, avoiding the use of harsh chemicals and high temperatures. The hydrophobic nature and dipole interactions of H2O molecules with the surface of the 2D Cr2Te3 coating aid in the condensation of ice droplets formed on the surfaces. First-principles calculations also confirm the observed crystal structure, surface interaction, and magnetic properties of 2D Cr2Te3.

Исследовано влияние типа структуры (пластинчатая, мелкодисперсная, градиентная), а также дополнительного поверхностного легирования водородом на процесс диффузионного соединения образцов из титанового сплава ВТ6. Показано, что поверхностное легирование образцов сплава ВТ6 водородом позволяет на 50—100 °C снизить температуру диффузионной сварки, получить их качественное беспористое соединение и устранить «структурную» границу между соединяемыми материалами, которая обычно образуется при сварке ...

Задача о возбуждении бегущих фонон-поляритонных волн на поверхности полярного кристалла падающей извне световой волной (с частотой, близкой к частоте решеточных колебаний) решена теоретически только для бесконечной открытой поверхности кристалла. В случаях, когда часть поверхности покрыта металлической маской, препятствующей проникновению возбуждающего излучения к атомам среды, и эта маска имеет произвольную форму, общепризнанного решения неоднородной задачи нет. ...

We study coherent electric manipulation of magnetic field induced localized states at a double kink of a helical edge in a HgTe/CdHgTe quantum well. An in-plane magnetic field opens a gap in the one-dimensional (1D) edge spectrum, while changes in the edge orientation generate localized in-gap states at the kinks. We show that, for suitable ...

Conformational space of polyphenylenevinylene oligomers is systematically investigated computationally at energies relevant for room temperature dynamics in a solvent and in a solid state. Our calculations show that optimal oligomer structures are essentially planar. However, lack of a deep minimum at the planar geometry allows for large molecular deformations even at very low temperatures. At ...

Canted antiferromagnets offer great potential in fundamental research and for use in applications due to their unique properties. The presence of the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction (DMI) leads to the existence of a weak ferromagnetic moment at room temperature. We study both theoretically and experimentally microwave spin pumping by a quasi-ferromagnetic mode from a canted easy plane antiferromagnet with weak ferromagnetism ...
