Structural and Electronic Properties of Low-Dimensional C-Nanoassemblies and Possible Analogues for Si (and Ge)
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2011)
The delocalised nature of p-electrons in carbon-based compounds has opened a huge path for new fundamental and technological developments using carbon-based materials of different dimensionality (from clusters, to surfaces, ...
Ab initio molecular dynamics on the electronic Boltzmann equilibrium distribution
(IOP Publishing, 2010-08-31)
We prove that for a combined system of classical and quantum particles, it is possible to describe a dynamics for the classical particles that incorporates in a natural way the Boltzmann equilibrium population for the ...
Germanene: a novel two-dimensional germanium allotrope akin to graphene and silicene
(IOP Publishing, 2014-09-09)
We have grown an atom-thin, ordered, two-dimensional multi-phase film in situ through germanium molecular beam epitaxy using a gold (111) surface as a substrate. Its growth is similar to the formation of silicene layers ...
Parameter-Free Hybridlike Functional Based on an Extended Hubbard Model: DFT Plus U Plus V
(American Physical Society, 2020-10-13)
In this paper, we propose an energy functional at the level of DFT U + V that allows us to compute self-consistently the values of the onsite interaction, Hubbard U and Hund J, as well as the intersite interaction V. This ...
Giant Exciton Mott Density in Anatase TiO2
(American Physical Society, 2020-09-10)
Elucidating the carrier density at which strongly bound excitons dissociate into a plasma of uncorrelated electron-hole pairs is a central topic in the many-body physics of semiconductors. However, there is a lack of ...
How Circular Dichroism in Time and Angle-Resolved Photoemission Can Be Used to Spectroscopically Detect Transient Topological States in Graphene
(American Physical Society, 2020-10-19)
Pumping graphene with circularly polarized light is the archetype of light-tailoring topological bands. Realizing the induced Floquet-Chern-insulator state and demonstrating clear experimental evidence for its topological ...
Time-Dependent Magnons from First Principles
(American Chemical Society, 2020-02)
We propose an efficient and non-perturbative scheme to compute magnetic excitations for extended systems employing the framework of time dependent density functional theory. Within our approach, we drive the system out of ...
One-dimensional flat bands in twisted bilayer germanium selenide
(Nature Publishing, 2020-02-28)
Experimental advances in the fabrication and characterization of few-layer materials stacked at a relative twist of small angle have recently shown the emergence of flat energy bands. As a consequence electron interactions ...
Chemistry in Quantum Cavities: Exact Results, the Impact of Thermal Velocities, and Modified Dissociation
(American Chemical Society, 2020-09-17)
In recent years tremendous progress in the field of lightmatter interactions has unveiled that strong coupling to the modes of an optical cavity can alter chemistry even at room temperature. Despite these impressive advances, ...
Polycyclic aromatic chains on metals and insulating layers by repetitive [3+2] cycloadditions
(Nature Publishing, 2020-03-20)
The vast potential of organic materials for electronic, optoelectronic and spintronic devices entails substantial interest in the fabrication of -conjugated systems with tailored functionality directly at insulating ...
