The experimental study of hydrogen bonds and their symmetrisation under extreme conditions is predominantly driven by diffraction methods, despite challenges of localising or probing the hydrogen subsystems directly. Until recently, H-bond…
The interplay of $sp^2$- and $sp^3$-type bonding defines silicon allotropes in two- and three-dimensional forms. A novel two-dimensional phase bearing structural resembleance to a single MoS$_2$ layer is found to possess a lower total…
We have used single crystal X-ray diffraction methods to establish the crystal structures of a compound in the Pd-Mn-Si system and in the Pd-Mn-Ge system. The title compounds have structures related to the Fe$_2$P structure type and are…
A silicene-like polymorph of the Si111 7x7 surface is proposed that resolves numerous experimental paradoxes and inconsistencies arising over the past 34 years. An analysis of the three established surface state charge densities from atom…
Hydrogenated silicenes possess peculiar properties owing to the strong H-Si bonds, as revealed by an investigation using first principles calculations. The various charge distributions, bond lengths, energy bands, and densities of states…
The structural and magnetic properties of BaMn2Si2O7 have been investigated. The magnetic susceptibility and specific heat, measured using single crystals, suggest that the quasi-one-dimensional magnetism originating from the loosely…
Understanding the interatomic bonding and electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials is crucial for preparing high-performance 2D semiconductor materials. We have calculated the band structure, electronic properties, and…
Using ab-initio electronic structure methods we have investigated the ground state structures and properties of neutral and charged SiH$_{m}$(m=1-4) and Si$_{2}$H$_{n}$(n=1-6) clusters which are produced in the plasma enhanced chemical…
We study two-dimensional sigma-hole systems in boron layers by calculating the electronic structures of Mg_{1-x}Na_xB_2 and Mg_{1-x}Al_xB_2. In Mg_{1-x}Na_xB_2, it is found that the concentration of sigma holes is approximately described by…
The electronic structure change of NiS$_{2-x}$Se$_x$ as a function of Se concentration $x$ has been studied by Ni $L$-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The XAS spectra show distinct features in Ni $L_3$ edge, indicating whether the…
We performed neutron powder diffraction experiments on lithium imide Li2NH, and have proposed a revised crystal structure model. Li2NH has a face-centered cubic structure with a partially occupied hydrogen site. Of the possible crystal…
The bonding mechanism of ethene to a nickel or palladium center is studied by the density matrix renormalization group algorithm, the complete active space self consistent field method, coupled cluster theory, and density functional theory.…
Contact interface properties are important in determining the performances of devices based on atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials, especially those with short channels. Understanding the contact interface is therefore quite…
When two-dimensional atomic layers of different materials are brought into close proximity to form van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures, interactions between adjacent layers significantly influence their physicochemical properties. These…
Neutron diffraction and ab initio studies were carried out on Mn2V1-xCoxGa (x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) Heusler alloys which exhibits high TC fully compensated ferrimagnetic characteristic for x=0.5. A combined analysis of neutron diffraction…
The distribution of Ge-O-Ge and Si-O-Si bond angles alpha in amorphous germania and silica is re-determined on the basis of diffraction experiments. The bond angle alpha joining adjacent tetrahedra is the central parameter of any continuous…
We have investigated the crystal, electronic, and magnetic structure of Mn5O8 by means of state of-the-art density functional theory calculations and neutron powder diffraction (NPD) measurements. This compound stabilizes in the monoclinic…
We study the distribution of hydrogen and various hydride configurations in realistic models of a-Si:H for two different concentration generated via experimentally constrained molecular relaxation approach (ECMR) [1]. The microstructure…
The structure of liquid N-methylformamide (NMF) has been investigated using synchrotron radiation at 77 and 95 keV. The use of high energy photons has several advantages, in this case especially the large accessible momentum transfer range,…
We investigate the magnetic structure of Mn3-xFexSn2 using neutron powder diffraction experiments and electronic structure calculations. These alloys crystallize in the orthorhombic Ni3Sn2 type of structure (Pnma) and comprise two…
