We perform detailed numerical simulations of field ion microscopy images of faceted crystals and compare them with experimental observations. In contrast to the case of crystals with a smooth surface, for a faceted topography we find extreme deformations of the ion image. Local magnification is highly inhomogeneous and may vary by an order of magnitude: from 0.64 to 6.7. Moreover, the anisotropy of the magnification at a point located on the facet edge may reach a factor of 10.

The surface stress and the contact potential differences of elastically deformed faces of Al, Cu, Au, Ni, and Ti crystals are calculated within the modified stabilized jellium model using the self-consistent Kohn-Sham method. The obtained values of t
he surface stress are in agreement with the results of the available first-principal calculations. We find that the work function decreases/increases linearly with elongation/compression of crystals. Our results confirm that the available experimental data for the contact potential difference obtained for the deformed surface by the Kelvin method do not correspond to the change of the work function but to the change of the surface potential. The problem of anisotropy of the work function and ionization potential of finite sample is discussed.
Gapless criteria that can efficiently determine whether a crystal is gapless or not are particularly useful for identifying topological semimetals. In this work, we propose a sufficient gapless criterion for three-dimensional non-interacting crystals
, based on the simplified expressions for the bulk average value of the static axion field. The brief logic is that two different simplified expressions give the same value in an insulator, and thus the gapless phase can be detected by the mismatch of them. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the gapless criterion in the magnetic systems with space groups 26 and 13, where mirror, glide, and inversion symmetries provide the simplified expressions. In particular, the gapless criterion can identify gapless phases that are missed by the symmetry representation approach, as illustrated by space group 26. Our proposal serves as a guiding principle for future discovery of topological semimetals.
The application of imaging techniques based on ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) sensors in diamond to characterise electrical devices has been proposed, but the compatibility of NV sensing with operational gated devices remains largely unexplored.
Here we fabricate graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) directly on the diamond surface and characterise them via NV microscopy. The current density within the gated graphene is reconstructed from NV magnetometry under both mostly p- and n-type doping, but the exact doping level is found to be affected by the measurements. Additionally, we observe a surprisingly large modulation of the electric field at the diamond surface under an applied gate potential, seen in NV photoluminescence and NV electrometry measurements, suggesting a complex electrostatic response of the oxide-graphene-diamond structure. Possible solutions to mitigate these effects are discussed.
By means of the plane wave method, we study nonuniform, i.e., mode- and k-dependent, effects in the spin-wave spectrum of a two-dimensional bicomponent magnonic crystal. We use the crystal based on a hexagonal lattice squeezed in the direction of the
external magnetic field wherein the squeezing applies to the lattice and the shape of inclusions. The squeezing changes both the demagnetizing field and the spatial confinement of the excitation, which may lead to the occurrence of an omnidirectional magnonic band gaps. In particular, we study the role played by propagational effects, which allows us to explain the k-dependent softening of modes. The effects we found enabled us not only to design the width and position of magnonic band gaps, but also to plan their response to a change in the external magnetic field magnitude. This allows the reversible tuning of magnonic band gaps, and it shows that the studied structures are promising candidates for designing magnonic devices that are tunable during operation.
When graphene is deformed in a dynamical manner, a time-dependent potential is induced for the electrons. The potential is antisymmetric with respect to valleys, and some straightforward applications are found for Raman spectroscopy. We show that a v
alley-antisymmetric potential broadens Raman $D$ band but does not affect $2D$ band, which is already observed by recent experiments. The space derivative of the valley antisymmetric potential gives a force field that accelerates intervalley phonons, while it corresponds to the longitudinal component of the previously discussed pseudoelectric field acting on the electrons. Effects of a pseudoelectric field on the electron is quite difficult to observe due to the valley-antisymmetric coupling constant, on the other hand, such obstacle is absent for intervalley phonons with $A_{1g}$ symmetry that constitute the $D$ and $2D$ bands.
