    Identification of a Magnetic Phase Via a Raman Spectrum in Single-Layer Mnse: an Ab Initio Study
    (Elsevier, 2022) Yayak, Yankı Öncü; Şahin, Hasan; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet
    Motivated by the recent experimental realization of single-layer two-dimensional MnSe [ACS Nano2021, 15, 13794-13802], structural, magnetic, elastic, vibrational, and electronic properties of single-layer MnSe are investigated by using density functional theory-based calculations. Among four different magnetic phases, namely, ferromagnetic (FM) and Nẽel-, zigzag-, and stripy-antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases, the Nẽel-AFM structure is found to be the energetically most favorable phase. Structural optimizations show the formation of in-plane anisotropy within the structures of zigzag- and stripy-AFM phases in single-layer MnSe. For the dynamically stable four magnetic phases, predicted Raman spectra reveal that each phase exhibits distinctive vibrational features and can be distinguished from each other. In addition, the elastic constants indicate the mechanical stability of each magnetic phase in single-layer MnSe and reveal the soft nature of each phase. Moreover, electronic band dispersion calculations show the indirect band gap semiconducting nature with varying electronic band gap energies for all magnetic phases. Furthermore, the atomic orbital-based density of states reveals the existence of out-of-plane orbitals dominating the top valence states in zigzag- and stripy-AFM phases, giving rise to the localized states. The stability of different magnetic phases and their distinct vibrational and electronic properties make single-layer MnSe a promising candidate for nanoelectronic and spintronic applications.

    Simultaneous Identification of Spectral Properties and Sizes of Multiple Particles in Solution With Subnanometer Resolution
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016) Karabudak, Engin; Brookes, Emre; Lesnyak, Vladimir; Gaponik, Nikolai; Eychmüller, Alexander; Walter, Johannes; Segets, Doris; Peukert, Wolfgang; Wohlleben, Wendel; Demeler, Borries; Cölfen, Helmut
    We report an unsurpassed solution characterization technique based on analytical ultracentrifugation, which demonstrates exceptional potential for resolving particle sizes in solution with sub-nm resolution. We achieve this improvement in resolution by simultaneously measuring UV/Vis spectra while hydrodynamically separating individual components in the mixture. By equipping an analytical ultracentrifuge with a novel multi-wavelength detector, we are adding a new spectral discovery dimension to traditional hydrodynamic characterization, and amplify the information obtained by orders of magnitude. We demonstrate the power of this technique by characterizing unpurified CdTe nanoparticle samples, avoiding tedious and often impossible purification and fractionation of nanoparticles into apparently monodisperse fractions. With this approach, we have for the first time identified the pure spectral properties and band-gap positions of discrete species present in the CdTe mixture.
