Hyperdoping consists of the intentional introduction of deep-level dopants into a semiconductor in excess of equilibrium concentrations. This causes a broadening of dopant energy levels into an intermediate band between the valence and…
A suspended, doubly clamped single wall carbon nanotube is characterized at cryogenic temperatures. We observe specific switching effects in dc-current spectroscopy of the embedded quantum dot. These have been identified previously as…
Degenerately doped semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) are of recent interest to the NC community due to their tunable localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) in the near infrared (NIR). The high level of doping in such materials with…
We report the results of \textit{ab initio} simulations of the electronic properties of a chain of C$_{60}$ molecules encapsulated in a boron nitride nanotube - so called BN-nanopeapod. It is demonstrated that this structure can be…
The density-of-states at the Fermi energy, $N(E_F)$, is low in doped superconducting semiconductors and high-$T_C$ cuprates. This contrasts with the common view that superconductivity requires a large electron-boson coupling $\lambda$ and…
As a two-dimensional material with a hollow hexatomic ring structure, N\'eel-type anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) GdI3 can be used as a theoretical model to study the effect of electron doping. Based on first-principles calculations, we find that…
We report on measurements of dissipation and frequency noise at millikelvin temperatures of nanomechanical devices covered with aluminum. A clear excess damping is observed after switching the metallic layer from superconducting to the…
Structural and electronic properties of pristine and transition metal doped ZnS monolayer are investigated within the framework of density functional theory. The pristine ZnS monolayer is showing direct band gap of about 2.8 eV. The…
Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) have generated considerable interest as inertial mass sensors. NEMS resonators have been used to weigh cells, biomolecules, and gas molecules, creating many new possibilities for biological and chemical…
Cutting-edge research in the band engineering of nanowires at the ultimate fine scale is related to the minimum scale of a nanowire-based device. The fundamental issue at the subnanometre scale is whether angle-resolved photoemission…
Magnetic semiconductors have attracted interest because of the question of how a magnetic metal can be derived from a paramagnetic insulator. Here our approach is to carrier dope insulating FeSi and we show that the magnetic half-metal…
From first-principles calculations, we predict that transition metal (TM) atom doped silicon nanowires have a half-metallic ground state. They are insulators for one spin-direction, but show metallic properties for the opposite spin…
Atomic intercalation in two dimensional (2D) layered materials can engineer the electronic structure at the atomic scale, bringing out tunable physical and chemical properties which are quite distinct in comparison with pristine one. Among…
Integrated chemical and biological sensors give advantages in cost, size and weight reduction and open new prospects for parallel monitoring and analysis. Biosensors based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) are the most attractive…

II-oxide and III-nitride semiconductors doped by nonmagnetic 2p light elements are investigated as potential dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS). Based on our first-principle calculations, nitrogen doped ZnO, carbon doped ZnO, and carbon…
Modern laboratory techniques like ultrafast laser excitation and shock compression can bring matter into highly nonequilibrium states with complex structural transformation, metallization and dissociation dynamics. To understand and model…
How to electrically control magnetic properties of a magnetic material is promising towards spintronic applications, where the investigation of carrier doping effects on antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials remains challenging due to their…
We study the electronic instabilities of newly predicted Ni-based high-$T_c$ superconducting material La$_2$Ni$_2$Se$_2$O$_3$ based on the random phase approximation. Our calculations on the susceptibility indicate that the collinear…
