We describe the superconducting proximity effect taking place in a contact between a noncentrosymmetric superconductor and a diffusive normal/ferromagnetic metal within the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. By solving numerically…
Quantum dots with conduction electrons or holes originating from several bands are considered. We assume the particles are confined in a harmonic potential and assume the electrons (or holes) belonging to different bands to be different…
A combination of the memory function formalism and time-dependent density-functional theory is applied to transport in dilute magnetic semiconductors. The approach considers spin and charge disorder and electron-electron interaction on an…
We present high resolution tunneling spectroscopy data at very low temperatures on superconducting nanostructures of lead built with an STM. By applying magnetic fields, superconductivity is restricted to length scales of the order of the…
We develop a theory which describes hybrid structures consisting out of superconducting and ferromagnetic parts. We give two examples for applications. First, we consider a hybrid structure containing a strong ferromagnet in the ballistic…
A relativistic density-functional theory based on a Fock-space effective quantum-electrodynamics (QED) Hamiltonian using the Coulomb or Coulomb-Breit two-particle interaction is developed. This effective QED theory properly includes the…
We present theoretical model for the proximity effect in F-SFF-F structures (F is ferromagnet, S is superconductor) with non-collinear magnetizations vectors in the F-layers and with arbitrary magnitudes of exchange fields. Electrical…
An atom placed inside a cavity of finite dimension offers many interesting features, and thus has been a topic of great current activity. This work proposes a density functional approach to pursue both ground and excited states of a…
We model the Hartree-exchange-correlation potential of Kohn-Sham density-functional theory adopting a novel strategy inspired by the strictly-correlated-electrons limit and relying on the exact decomposition of the potential based on the…
An interesting fundamental problem in density-functional theory of electronic structure of matter is to construct the exact Kohn-Sham (KS) potential for a given density. The exact potential can then be used to assess the accuracy of…
When a superconductor is placed in contact with a normal material, Cooper pairs penetrate the latter and induce superconductivity via the proximity effect. Despite its central role in quantum materials, superconducting devices and…
We present a microscopic theory for superconductivity in a magnetic field based on a local approximation approach. We derive an expression for free energy density $F$ as a function of temperature $T$ and vector potential {\bf a}, and two…
Time-dependent (current) density functional theory for many-electron systems strongly coupled to quantized electromagnetic modes of a microcavity is proposed. It is shown that the electron-photon wave function is a unique functional of the…
By using a well established 'ab initio' theoretical approach developed in the past to quantitatively study the superconductivity of condensed matter systems, which is based on the Kohn-Sham Density Functional theory, I study the superfluid…
Using a simplified one-dimensional model of a diatomic molecule, the associated interacting density and corresponding Kohn-Sham potential have been obtained analytically for all fractional molecule occupancies $N$ between 0 and 2. For the…
A geometry-based density functional theory is presented for mixtures of hard spheres, hard needles and hard platelets; both the needles and the platelets are taken to be of vanishing thickness. Geometrical weight functions that are…
Excellent fits of the tunneling density of states in disordered superconductors can be often achieved making use of the phenomenological Dynes formula. However, no consistent derivation of this formula has been available so far. The Dynes…
The discovery of a superconducting dome in the proximity of the magnetic to paramagnetic transition in the electronic phase diagram of MnP as a function of hydrostatic pressure has renewed the interest in the magnetic properties of this…
In the well-known Kohn-Sham theory in Density Functional Theory, a fictitious non-interacting system is introduced that has the same particle density as a system of $N$ electrons subjected to mutual Coulomb repulsion and an external…
I describe the foundation of a Density Functional Theory approach to include pairing correlations, which was applied to a variety of systems ranging from dilute fermions, to neutron stars and finite nuclei. Ground state properties as well…
