Ab initio wave-function-based methods are employed for the study of quasiparticle energy bands of zinc-blende ZnS, with focus on the Zn 3d "semicore" states. The relative energies of these states with respect to the top of the S 3p valence…
The quasiparticle bands of diamond, a prototype covalent insulator, are herein studied by means of wave-function electronic-structure theory, with emphasis on the nature of the correlation hole around a bare particle. Short-range…
Ab initio wavefunction based methods are applied to the study of electron correlation effects on the band structure of oxide systems. We choose MgO as a prototype closed-shell ionic oxide. Our analysis is based on a local Hamiltonian…
We compute and discuss the electronic band structure and excitonic dispersion of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) in the single layer configuration and in three bulk polymorphs (usual AA' stacking, Bernal AB, and rhombohedral ABC). We focus on…
Motivated by the observation of polarization superlattices in twisted multilayers of hexagonal boron nitride ($h$-BN), we address the possibility of using these heterostructures for tailoring the properties of multilayer graphene by means…
We present a simplified computational scheme in order to calculate the effects of electron correlations on the energy bands of diamond and silicon. By adopting a quasiparticle picture we compute first the relaxation and polarization effects…
Tailoring the electronic and optical properties of nitride-based alloys for optoelectronic applications in the ultraviolet and red spectral range has attracted significant attention in recent years. Adding boron nitride (BN) to indium…
Local interlayer charge polarization of twisted bilayer hexagonal boron nitride (t2BN) is calculated and parametrized as a function of twist angle and perpendicular electric fields through tight-binding calculations on lattice relaxed…
Ground state properties of SiC, AlN, GaN and InN in the zinc-blende and wurtzite structures are determined using an ab initio scheme. For the self-consistent field part of the calculations, the Hartree-Fock program Crystal has been used.…
This paper presents a theory of interaction-induced band-flattening in strongly correlated electron systems. We begin by illustrating an inherent connection between flat bands and index theorems, and presenting a generic prescription for…
Correlated {\em ab initio} electronic structure calculations are reported for the polymers lithium hydride chain $[LiH]_{\infty}$ and beryllium hydride $[Be_{2}H_{4}]_{\infty}$. First, employing a Wannier-function-based approach, the…
We study the effect of twisting on bilayer graphene. The effect of lattice relaxation is included; we look at the electronic structure, piezo-electric charges and spontaneous polarisation. We show that the electronic structure without…
We present a novel approach to electron-lattice interaction beyond the linear-coupling regime. Based on the solution of a Holstein-Peierls-type model, we derive explicit analytical expressions for the eigenvalue spectrum of the Hamiltonian,…
Folded regions are commonly encountered in a number of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) based bulk and nanostructured materials. Two types of structural modifications occur in folded h-BN layers: local curvature at the folded edges and…
We compute the electronic band structure and optical properties of boron arsenide using the relativistic quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ approach, including electron-hole interactions through solution of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. We…
We present a method which allows to include narrow-band correlation effects into the description of both valence and core states and we apply it to the prototypical case of nickel. The results of an ab-initio band calculation are used as…
We study the atomic and electronic structures of the commensurate double moir\'{e} superlattices in fully relaxed twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) nearly aligned with the hexagonal boron nitride (BN). The single-particle effective Hamiltonian…
Obtaining accurate band structures of correlated solids has been one of the most important and challenging problems in first-principles electronic structure calculation. There have been promising recent active developments of wave function…
An ab initio Wannier-function-based approach to electronic ground-state calculations for crystalline solids is outlined. In the framework of the linear combination of atomic orbitals method the infinite character of the solid is rigorously…
A systematic method for determining correlated wavefunctions of extended systems in the ground and excited states is presented. It allows to fully exploit the power of quantum-chemical programs designed for correlation calculations of…
