Density functional theory (DFT) modeling of the physisorption of four different types of molecules (toluene, bromine dimmer, water and nitrogen dioxide) over and above graphene ripples has been performed. For all types of molecules changes…
CrSBr is a layered van der Waals insulator with a quasi one-dimensional electronic structure and in-plane ferromagnetic order. Recent experimental work on Li-doped CrSBr reveals quasi-1D charge modulated states. In this study, we develop ab…
We have derived an expression of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction, where all the three components of the DM vector can be calculated independently, for a general, non-collinear magnetic configuration. The formalism is implemented…
Most realistic calculations of moderately correlated materials begin with a ground-state density functional theory (DFT) calculation. While Kohn-Sham DFT is used in about 40,000 scientific papers each year, the fundamental underpinnings are…
Density Functional Theory (DFT) is one of the most widely used methods for "ab initio" calculations of the structure of atoms, molecules, crystals, surfaces, and their interactions. Unfortunately, the customary introduction to DFT is often…
The formalism of density functional theory (DFT) can be easily extended to the time dependent case (TDDFT). However, while in the static case the theory is well established and is expected to be, at least in principle, an exact approach for…

Twisted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) bilayers exhibit periodic moir\'e potentials, which can trap excitons at certain high-symmetry sites. At small twist angles, TMD lattices undergo an atomic reconstruction, altering the moir\'e…
An essential property of layered systems is the dynamical nature of the screened Coulomb interaction. Low energy collective modes appear as a consequence of the layering and provide for a superconducting-pairing channel in addition to the…
We study a system of electrons interacting through long--range Coulomb forces on a one--dimensional lattice, by means of a variational ansatz which is the strong--coupling counterpart of the Gutzwiller wave function. Our aim is to describe…
Crystal structure prediction methods and first-principles calculations have been used to explore low-energy structures of carbon monoxide (CO). Contrary to the standard wisdom, the most stable structure of CO at ambient pressure was found…
Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) within the linear response regime provides a solid mathematical framework to capture excitations. The accuracy of the theory, however, largely depends on the approximations for the…
