Structure of periodic crystals and quasicrystals in ultrathin films of Ba-Ti-O

Eric Cockayne, Marek Mihalkovič, and Christopher L. Henley

Phys. Rev. B 93, 020101(R) (2016) - Published 7 January, 2016

Through a combination of modeling and density functional theory calculations, the authors solve the structure of the only known quasicrystalline oxide, Ba-Ti-O, and introduce a new crystal-chemistry motif that explains all previously unsolved ultrathin Ba-Ti-O structures.

Phys. Rev. B 93, 020103(R) (2016) - Published 11 January, 2016

Hydrogen sulfides have recently received a great deal of interest due to the record high- $T_{c}$ of up to 203 K observed on strong compression of H $_{2}$ S . In this paper, a joint theoretical and experimental study is presented to characterize the dissociation products of compressed H $_{2}$ S , which is essential to understand its complex superconducting states. Based on the results here, the authors found H $_{2}$ S partially decomposes into S + H $_{3}$ S + H $_{4}$ S $_{3}$ above 27 GPa, and H $_{4}$ S $_{3}$ emerges as the major component at around 66 GPa. Interestingly, x-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments observed a small fraction of H $_{3}$ S and residual H $_{2}$ S at least up to 140 GPa, which are believed to be responsible for the two superconducting states observed in experiments. This paper provides the first XRD evidence on the existence of H $_{3}$ S at high pressure from the decomposition of H $_{2}$ S.

Effect of magnetism on lattice dynamics in ${SrFe}_{2} {As}_{2}$ using high-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering

Phys. Rev. B 93, 020301(R) (2016) - Published 25 January, 2016

Phonons in iron pnictide materials were predicted to show large effects from magnetic ordering that had not been observed, and, indeed, the overall phonon dispersion has been in poor agreement with \textit{ab initio} calculations. By carefully detwinning a sample of SrFe $_{2}$ As $_{2}$ , clear phonon splitting was observed below $T_{N}$ , allowing the authors to suggest an improved model for the phonon response for both the antiferromagnetically ordered phase below $T_{N}$ and the paramagnetic phase above $T_{N}$ .

Magnetic field dependence of the magnon spin diffusion length in the magnetic insulator yttrium iron garnet

L. J. Cornelissen and B. J. van Wees

Phys. Rev. B 93, 020403(R) (2016) - Published 19 January, 2016

Diffusive transport of magnons in YIG has recently attracted a lot of research attention, particularly in the context of the spin Seebeck effect and the new field of magnon spintronics. Here, the authors perform a systematic study of the influence of an external magnetic field on the magnon spin diffusion length, making use of a nonlocal measurement scheme that allows for direct extraction of this length scale. The results demonstrate a new mechanism for the manipulation of diffusive magnonic spin currents.

Superconductivity in metastable phases of phosphorus-hydride compounds under high pressure

José A. Flores-Livas, Maximilian Amsler, Christoph Heil, Antonio Sanna, Lilia Boeri, Gianni Profeta, Chris Wolverton, Stefan Goedecker, and E. K. U. Gross

Phys. Rev. B 93, 020508(R) (2016) - Published 26 January, 2016

Reports on sulfur hydride attaining metallicity under pressure and exhibiting superconductivity at temperatures as high as 200 K have spurred an intense search for another room-temperature superconductor among hydrogen-rich compounds. Recently, compressed phosphorus hydride (phosphine) was reported to metallize at pressures above 45 GPa, reaching a superconducting transition temperature ( $T_{c}$ ) of 100 K at 200 GPa. However, neither the exact composition nor the crystal structure of the superconducting phase have been conclusively determined. This work reports an extensive study of the phase diagram of PH $_{n}$ ( $n$ =1–6) by means of \textit{ab initio} crystal structure predictions using the minima hopping method. The results do not support the existence of thermodynamically stable PH $_{n}$ compounds, which exhibit a tendency for elemental decomposition at high pressure even when vibrational contributions to the free energies are taken into account. Although the lowest energy phases of PH $_{1, 2, 3}$ display $T_{c}$ ’s comparable to experiments, it remains uncertain if the measured values of $T_{c}$ can be fully attributed to a phase-pure compound of PH $_{n}$ .

Origin of negative density and modulus in acoustic metamaterials

Sam H. Lee and Oliver B. Wright

Phys. Rev. B 93, 024302 (2016) - Published 14 January, 2016

This paper provides a warning to the acoustic metamaterials community to be careful not to mistake the sign or value of the effective parameters, i.e. the density and modulus, of acoustic metamaterials for want of an overall picture of the physics involved. The authors here provide a new picture of the functioning of acoustic metamaterials based on hidden forces and hidden sources of volume. The new ansatz is tested on some established acoustic metamaterials with elements based on membranes, Helmholtz resonators, springs, and masses. It should provide the basis for a clearer vision of acoustic metamaterials and a faster route to real-world applications.
