An oversight of some previous density functional calculations of the band gaps of wurtzite and cubic InN and of wurtzite GaN by Rinke et al. [Appl. Phys. Lett. 89,161919, 2006] led to an inaccurate and misleading statement relative to…

Superconductors are often discussed in the mean-field approximation that breaks $U(1)$ symmetry. Since the $U(1)$ symmetry underlies the charge conservation, naive application of response theory sometimes gives results that are not…

Ballistic injection in a nanodevice is a complex process where electrons can either be transmitted or reflected, thereby introducing deviations from the otherwise quantized conductance. In this context, quantum rings (QRs) appear as model…
