  • unconventional high temperature superconductivity in cubic zinc blende Transition Metal Compounds
    Science China-physics Mechanics & Astronomy, 2020
    Co-Authors: Qiang Zhang, Kun Jiang
    Abstract:

    We consider possible high temperature superconductivity (high-$T_\text{c}$) in Transition Metal Compounds with a cubic zinc-blende lattice structure. When the electron filling configuration in the d-shell is close to $d^7$, all three t$_{2g}$ orbitals are near half filling with strong nearest neighbor antiferromagnetic (AFM) superexchange interactions. We argue that upon doping, this electronic environment can be one of “genes" to host unconventional high $T_\text{c}$ with a time reversal symmetry broken $d_{2z^2-x^2-y^2}\pm~{\rm~i}d_{x^2-y^2}$ pairing symmetry. With gapless nodal points along the diagonal directions, this state is a direct three-dimensional analogue to the two-dimensional B$_{1g}$ $d$-wave state in cuprates. We suggest that such a case may be realized in electron doped CoN, such as CoN$_{1-x}$O$_x$ and (H, Li)$_{1-x}$CoN.

  • Systematic Aspects of The Electronic Structure of 3d Transition-Metal Compounds
    Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 1993
    Co-Authors: Atsushi Fujimori, Takashi Mizokawa, T. Saitoh, A. E. Bocquet
    Abstract:

    Systematic changes in the electronic structure of 3d Transition-Metal Compounds with varying chemical compositions are studied by photoemission spectroscopy and configuration-interaction cluster-model analysis. The changes consist of (i) the smooth variation of model parameters such as the charge-transfer energy Δ and the d-d Coulomb repulsion energy U with atomic number and valence and (ii) the apparently irregular multiplet corrections to Δ and U, which are functions of the nominal electron number. These systematics are reflected upon the band gaps, covalency and character of doped carriers in Transition-Metal oxides and chalcogenides, and upon the optical absorption spectra and the ionization energies of substitutional Transition-Metal impurities in semiconductors.

  • electronic structure of 3d Transition Metal Compounds by analysis of the 2p core level photoemission spectra
    Physical Review B, 1992
    Co-Authors: A. E. Bocquet, T. Saitoh, T Mizokawa, H Namatame, Atsushi Fujimori
    Abstract:

    The electronic structures of a wide range of Transition-Metal Compounds, including Cu, Ni, Co, Fe, and Mn oxides and sulfides, with Metal valences ranging from 2+ to 4+, have been investigated by a cluster-type configuration-interaction analysis of the core-level 2p x-ray photoemission spectra. We show that by including the d-d exchange interaction (retaining only diagonal terms) and an anisotropic Metal-ligand hybridization in the model, these spectra can be well reproduced, and so can be used to deduce quantitatively values for the ligand-to-Metal charge-transfer energy \ensuremath{\Delta}, the on-site d-d Coulomb repulsion energy U, and the Metal-ligand transfer integrals T. Systematics for \ensuremath{\Delta} and U are generally consistent with those found from previous valence-band studies and follow expected chemical trends. By using values of \ensuremath{\Delta} and U found from this model, we show that most of the Transition-Metal Compounds studied in this work can be classified in the charge-transfer regime of the Zaanen-Sawatzky-Allen diagram. A few exceptions to these systematics have been found. Small U values found for pyrite-type ${\mathrm{CoS}}_{2}$ and ${\mathrm{FeS}}_{2}$ and large T values for Mn perovskite oxides, as well as the neglect of other mechanisms such as exciton satellites, may indicate a limitation of the local-cluster model.

  • Systematics in the electronic structure of 3d Transition-Metal Compounds
    Solid State Communications, 1992
    Co-Authors: A. E. Bocquet, Takashi Mizokawa, T. Saitoh, Atsushi Fujimori
    Abstract:

    Abstract We have studied a wide range of 3d Transition-Metal Compounds by a cluster configuration-interaction analysis of the Metal 2p core-level photoemission spectra. Deduced values for the charge-transfer energy Δ and the d-d Coulomb repulsion U, defined with respect to the multiplet-averaged energies, show a smooth variation as functions of cation atomic number, ligand and cation valence. Many physical properties, however, show apparently irregular variation, which we attribute to d-d exchange or multiplet effects, which also reflect upon Δeff and Ueff defined with respect to the lowest multiplet energies.

  • catalytic mechanism of Transition Metal Compounds on mg hydrogen sorption reaction
    Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2006
    Co-Authors: Gagik Barkhordarian, Thomas Klassen, Riidiger Bormann
    Abstract:

    The catalytic mechanisms of Transition-Metal Compounds during the hydrogen sorption reaction of magnesium-based hydrides were investigated through relevant experiments. Catalytic activity was found to be influenced by four distinct physico-thermodynamic properties of the Transition-Metal compound:  a high number of structural defects, a low stability of the compound, which however has to be high enough to avoid complete reduction of the Transition Metal under operating conditions, a high valence state of the Transition-Metal ion within the compound, and a high affinity of the Transition-Metal ion to hydrogen. On the basis of these results, further optimization of the selection of catalysts for improving sorption properties of magnesium-based hydrides is possible. In addition, utilization of Transition-Metal Compounds as catalysts for other hydrogen storage materials is considered.
