We study the electronic and transport properties of a graphene-based superlattice theoretically by using an effective Dirac equation. The superlattice consists of a periodic potential applied on a single-layer graphene deposited on a…
We report the synthesis via an indium flux method of a novel single-crystalline compound Rh3In3.4Ge3.6 that belongs to the cubic Ir3Ge7 structure type. In Rh3In3.4Ge3.6, the In and Ge atoms choose to preferentially occupy, respectively, the…
The structural and electronic properties of germanium clathrates Ge$_{46}$ and K$_8$Ge$_{46}$ are studied by first principles calculations within the local density approximation. The equilibrium structures are obtained by {\em ab initio}…
Although many programs have been published for fully numerical Hartree--Fock (HF) or density functional (DF) calculations on atoms, we are not aware of any that support hybrid DFs, which are popular within the quantum chemistry community…
We have performed x-ray photoemission spectroscopy on the system of noncentrosymmetric superconductor, Li$_2$(Pd$_x$Pt$_{1-x}$3)B. For Li$_2$Pt$_3$B, we found 2 major peaks with 2 other weak components, and the band calculations were in…
The electronic structure of Y$_{4}$Co$_{3}$ has been studied based on the density functional theory within the local-density approximation. The calculation indicates that Y$_{4}$Co$_{3}$ is very close to ferromagnetic instability. The Fermi…
We investigate theoretically the electronic structure of graphene and boron nitride (BN) lateral heterostructures, which were fabricated in recent experiments. The first-principles density functional calculation demonstrates that a huge…
We derive a self-consistent local variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation for (quasi-)two-dimensional (2D) systems by localizing the Hartree term. The scheme results in an explicit orbital-free representation of the electron density and…
We report the single-crystal growth of the non-centrosymmetric paramagnet U3Ni3Sn4 by the Bridgman method and the Fermi surface properties detected by de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) experiments. We have also investigated single-crystal U3Ni3Sn4…
We investigate the electronic structure of ternary palladates $A$Pd$_3$O$_4$ ($A$ = Sr, Ca) using valence band photoemission spectroscopy and band structure calculations. Overall width of the valence band and energy positions of various…
Hybrid density functionals, which replaces a fraction of density functional theory (DFT) exchange with exact Hartree-Fock (HF) exchange, have been used to study the structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of delta-Plutonium. The…
We consider the combined influence of disorder, electron-electron interactions and quantum hopping on the properties of electronic systems in a localized phase, approaching an insulator-metal transition. The generic models in this regime…
We have developed a Hartree-Fock theory for electrons on a honeycomb lattice aiming to solve a long-standing problem of the Fermi velocity renormalization in graphene. Our model employs no fitting parameters (like an unknown band cutoff)…
We investigate the influence of slab thickness on the electronic structure of the Si(100)-p(2x2) surface in density functional theory (DFT) calculations, considering both density of states and band structure. Our calculations, with slab…
Heterogeneous interfaces are central to many energy-related applications in the nanoscale. From the first-principles electronic structure perspective, one of the outstanding problems is accurately and efficiently calculating how the…
Semimetals, in which conduction and valence bands touch but do not form Fermi surfaces, have attracted considerable interest for their anomalous properties starting with the discovery of Dirac matter in graphene and other two-dimensional…
Intensive research has focused on harnessing the potential of graphene for electronic, optoelectronic, and spintronic devices by generating a bandgap at the Dirac point and enhancing the spin-orbit interaction in the graphene layer.…
The electronic structure of the heavy fermion compound CeB6 is probed by resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering using photon energies across the Ce 3d and 4d absorption edges. The hybridization between the localized 4f orbitals and the…
Over many years, computational simulations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) have been used extensively to study many different materials at the atomic scale. However, its application is restricted by system size, leaving a number of…
The recently reported nickel carbide superconductor, body centered tetragonal $I4/mmm$ Th$_2$NiC$_2$ with T$_c$ = 8.5 K increasing to 11.2 K upon alloying Th with Sc, is found to have very fine structure in its electronic spectrum,…
