Charge and phonon transport in PbTe-based thermoelectric materials

Yu Xiao, Li‐Dong Zhao · 24 Oct 2018

Abstract PbTe is a typical intermediate-temperature thermoelectric material, which has undergone extensive developments and achieved excellent high thermoelectric performance. In this perspective we summarized several strategies that were successfully applied in PbTe-based thermoelectric materials through manipulating charge and phonon transports, such as optimizing carrier density to tune Fermi level, tailoring band structure to enhance effective…

Excitations in the field-induced quantum spin liquid state of α-RuCl3

Arnab Banerjee, Paula Lampen-Kelley, Johannes Knolle et al. · 9 Feb 2018

Abstract The celebrated Kitaev quantum spin liquid (QSL) is the paradigmatic example of a topological magnet with emergent excitations in the form of Majorana Fermions and gauge fluxes. Upon breaking of time-reversal symmetry, for example in an external magnetic field, these fractionalized quasiparticles acquire non-Abelian exchange statistics, an important ingredient for topologically protected quantum computing.…

Size effect in thermoelectric materials

Jun Mao, Zihang Liu, Zhifeng Ren · 9 Dec 2016

Abstract Thermoelectric applications have attracted increasing interest recently due to its capability of converting waste heat into electricity without hazardous emissions. Materials with enhanced thermoelectric performance have been reported in recent two decades. The revival of research for thermoelectric materials began in early 1990s when the size effect is considered. Low-dimensional materials with exceptionally high…

Even odder after twenty-three years: the superconducting order parameter puzzle of Sr2RuO4

A. P. Mackenzie, Thomas Scaffidi, Clifford W. Hicks et al. · 6 Jul 2017

Abstract In this short review, we aim to provide a topical update on the status of efforts to understand the superconductivity of Sr 2 RuO 4 . We concentrate on efforts to identify a superconducting order parameter symmetry that is compatible with all the major pieces of experimental knowledge of the material, and highlight some…

Experimental identification of quantum spin liquids

Jinsheng Wen, Shun-Li Yu, Shiyan Li et al. · 5 Apr 2019

Abstract In condensed matter physics there is a novel phase termed ‘quantum spin liquid’, in which strong quantum fluctuations prevent long-range magnetic order from being estab lished, and so electron spins do not form an ordered pattern but remain liquid-like even at absolute zero temperature. Such a phase is not involved in any spontaneous symmetry…

npj Quantum Materials template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the npj Quantum Materials format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the npj Quantum Materials template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Springer Nature format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does npj Quantum Materials use?
npj Quantum Materials uses Superscript numbered (Nature) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. npj Quantum Materials 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to npj Quantum Materials?
No. DocuGuru generates the sn-jnl LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Springer Nature-ready npj Quantum Materials document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the npj Quantum Materials template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the npj Quantum Materials format with correct headings, figures, tables, and superscript citations.
What is npj Quantum Materials?
Nature Portfolio journal (Springer Nature). It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by Springer Nature.
Can I export a submission-ready npj Quantum Materials PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official npj Quantum Materials template (the sn-jnl class) that is ready to submit to Springer Nature, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the npj Quantum Materials template cost?
You can start writing in the npj Quantum Materials template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready npj Quantum Materials PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
