Using He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe atoms as a model system, it is demonstrated that graphene nanobubbles on flat substrates are multistable systems. A nanobubble can adopt multiple stable stationary states, each characterized by the number of…
For a long time, there have been huge discrepancies between different models and experiments concerning the liquid-liquid phase transition (LLPT) in dense hydrogen. In this work, we present the results of extensive calculations of the LLPT…
We report theoretical calculations of the normal-state spin diffusion coefficient of 3He in aerogel, including both elastic and inelastic scattering of 3He quasiparticles, and compare these results with experimental data for 3He in 98%…
I use the method of classical density-functional theory in the weighted-density approximation of Tarazona to investigate the phase diagram and the interface structure of a two-dimensional lattice-gas model with three phases -- vapour,…
Graphene and its multilayers have attracted considerable interest owing to the fourfold spin and valley degeneracy of their charge carriers, which enables the formation of a rich variety of broken-symmetry states and raises the prospect of…
The spatial distributions of the valence-electron density and the total energy reliefs for water (or methanol) migration on the free surface of graphene are obtained, by using the electron density functional and ab initio pseudopotential…
We propose, based on ab initio calculations, that the ground state (001) surface of $\alpha$-Ga should be covered by two layers of GaIII, a denser phase which is stable in the bulk only at high pressure and temperature. We discuss how this…
A potential phase transition between a normal ground state and a photon-condensed ground state in many-dipole light-matter systems is a topic of considerable controversy, exasperated by conflicting no-go and counter no-go theorems and often…
We observe optical third harmonic generation from graphene and few-layer graphite flakes produced by exfoliation. The emission scales with the cube of the intensity of the incident near-infrared femtosecond pulses and has a wavelength that…
We present the results of molecular dynamics (MD) studies of hexane physisorbed onto graphite for eight coverages in the range $0.875 \le \rho \le 1.05$ (in units of monolayers). At low temperatures the adsorbate molecules form a uniaxially…
Graphane is obtained by perfectly hydrogenating graphene. There exists an intermediate material, partially hydrogenated graphene (which we call \textit{hydrographene}), interpolating from pure graphene to pure graphane. It has various…
Path-integral Monte Carlo calculations have been performed to study the $^4$He adsorption on both sides of a single $\alpha$-graphyne sheet. For investigation of the interlayer correlation between the upper and the lower monolayer of $^4$He…
