Electric-double-layer transistors (EDLTs), which consist of ionic liquids (IL) as gate dielectrics, have attracted keen interest owing to dramatic modulation of physical properties by high-density carrier accumulation and tuning. In this study, EDLTs based on the superconducting ultrathin FeSe film with multivalent ILs exhibit a great potential for improvement of physical properties at the interface charge accumulation layer. The superior superconducting property found in high-Tc FeSe-EDLT with divalent IL sheds new light on the importance of interface engineering via appropriate selection of ILs.

The authors examine a new generation of van der Waals density functionals for the prediction of the geometric and energetic properties of layered materials, and report that the recent inclusion of fractionally ionic effects with many-body dispersions displays outstanding accuracy that almost matches highly accurate “benchmark” models, but at a much lower computational cost. Three other methods perform almost as well. They conclude that the evolution of dispersion models is approaching chemical accuracy for van der Waals heterostructures, and that further refinements should seek to improve the underlying polarizability models, such as by including fractional ions or through more accurate treatment of the chemical environment.

The fascinating interplay between topology and magnetism was first observed in integer spin chains. As conjectured by Haldane, half-integer and integer spin chains differ in their excitation spectra: while the former are gapless, the latter contain a Haldane gap. Though there are now many examples of Haldane gap materials, they all contain spin chains and are thus quasi-one-dimensional materials. Recent proposals suggest that strongly correlated, three-dimensional spin-one diamond lattices can also harbor topological magnetic states and Haldane-gapped excitation spectra, however, no materials have been found to harbor spin-one on a diamond lattice thus far. The authors present data on NiRhO, a tetragonal spinel with Ni (S= 1) on a diamond lattice, and present it as a candidate three-dimensional topological paramagnet.
