Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 9Quantifying Hydrogen Bonding Using Electrically Tunable Nanoconfined Water(Nature Portfolio, 2025) Wang, Ziwei; Bhattacharya, Anupam; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Kravets, Vasyl; Diaz-Nunez, Pablo; Mullan, Ciaran; Mishchenko, ArtemHydrogen bonding plays a crucial role in biology and technology, yet it remains poorly understood and quantified despite its fundamental importance. Traditional models, which describe hydrogen bonds as electrostatic interactions between electropositive hydrogen and electronegative acceptors, fail to quantitatively capture bond strength, directionality, or cooperativity, and cannot predict the properties of complex hydrogen-bonded materials. Here, we introduce a concept of hydrogen bonds as elastic dipoles in an electric field, which captures a wide range of hydrogen bonding phenomena in various water systems. Using gypsum, a hydrogen bond heterostructure with two-dimensional structural crystalline water, we calibrate the hydrogen bond strength through an externally applied electric field. We show that our approach quantifies the strength of hydrogen bonds directly from spectroscopic measurements and reproduces a wide range of key properties of confined water reported in the literature. Using only the stretching vibration frequency of confined water, we can predict hydrogen bond strength, local electric field, O-H bond length, and dipole moment. Our work also introduces hydrogen bond heterostructures - a class of electrically and chemically tunable materials that offer stronger, more directional bonding compared to van der Waals heterostructures, with potential applications in areas such as catalysis, separation, and energy storage.Article Novel Single Layers of Holey Crystalline Strcutures of Hf8s12 With Diverse Magnetic States(Elsevier, 2025) Kutlu, Tayfun; Ercem, Onur; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Sahin, HasanMotivated by recent experiments revealing the synthesizability of novel M 8 X 12 (where M=transition metal and X=S, Se, or Te) type holey structure transition metal chalcogenide crystals such as W8Se12, the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of the single layer Hf8S12 are investigated. Density functional theory (DFT) based total energy optimizations and dynamic stability analysis show that hafnium disulfide crystals with the known 1T phase are stabilized in the holey crystal structure represented by the chemical formula Hf8S12. While 1T-HfS2 crystals are nonmagnetic, holey Hf8S12 material exhibits 4 different magnetic states along with the ferromagnetic ground state. All these magnetic states display indirect or quasi-indirect narrow bandgap semiconducting behavior. Moreover, it is shown that the in-plane stiffness and Poisson ratio values of each possible magnetic phase of Hf8S12 has a distinctive angle dependency against applied strain. Its stable crystal structure and the magnetic diversity show that Hf8S12 can bean important candidate for magneto-mechanical applications.Article Citation - WoS: 1Anisotropic Structural, Vibrational, Electronic, Optical, and Elastic Properties of Single-Layer Hafnium Pentatelluride: an <i>ab Initio</I> Study(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2024) Dogan, Kadir Can; Cetin, Zebih; Yagmurcukardes, MehmetMotivated by the highly anisotropic nature of bulk hafnium pentatelluride (HfTe<INF>5</INF>), the structural, vibrational, electronic, optical, and elastic properties of single-layer two-dimensional (2D) HfTe<INF>5</INF> were investigated by performing density functional theory (DFT)-based first-principles calculations. Total energy and geometry optimizations reveal that the 2D single-layer form of HfTe<INF>5</INF> exhibits in-plane anisotropy. The phonon band structure shows dynamic stability of the free-standing layer and the predicted Raman spectrum displays seven characteristic Raman-active phonon peaks. In addition to its dynamic stability, HfTe<INF>5</INF> is shown to exhibit thermal stability at room temperature, as confirmed by quantum molecular dynamics simulations. Moreover, the obtained elastic stiffness tensor elements indicate the mechanical stability of HfTe<INF>5</INF> with its orientation-dependent soft nature. The electronic band structure calculations show the indirect-gap semiconducting behavior of HfTe<INF>5</INF> with a narrow electronic band gap energy. The optical properties of HfTe<INF>5</INF>, in terms of its imaginary dielectric function, absorption coefficient, reflectance, and transmittance, are shown to exhibit strong in-plane anisotropy. Furthermore, structural analysis of several point defects and their oxidized structures was performed by means of simulated STM images. Among the considered vacancy defects, namely , , V<INF>Te<INF>out</INF></INF>, V<INF>Te<INF>in</INF></INF>, , and V<INF>Hf</INF>, the formation of V<INF>Te<INF>out</INF></INF> is revealed to be the most favorable defect. While and V<INF>Hf</INF> defects lead to local magnetism, only the oxygen-substituted V<INF>Hf</INF> structure possesses magnetism among the oxidized defects. Moreover, it is found that all the bare and oxidized vacant sites can be distinguished from each other through the STM images. Overall, our study indicates not only the fundamental anisotropic features of single-layer HfTe<INF>5</INF>, but also shows the signatures of feasible point defects and their oxidized structures, which may be useful for future experiments on 2D HfTe<INF>5</INF>.Correction Chlorinated Phosphorene for Energy Application (vol 231, 112625, 2024)(Elsevier, 2024) Hassani, Nasim; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Peeters, Francois M.; Neek-Amal, Mehdi[No Abstract Available]Correction Chlorinated Phosphorene for Energy Application (vol 231, 112625, 2024)(Elsevier, 2024) Hassani, Nasim; Yagmurcukardes, Mehmet; Peeters, Francois M.; Neek-Amal, Mehdi[No Abstract Available]
