In the study of colloidal, biological and electrochemical systems, it is customary to treat surfaces, macromolecules and electrodes as homogeneously charged. This simplified approach is proven successful in most cases, but fails to describe…
We compute the bulk viscosity of a mixed quark-hadron phase. In the first scenario to be discussed, the mixed phase occurs at large densities and we assume that it is composed of a mixing of hyperonic matter and quarks in the Color Flavor…
We apply general variational techniques to the problem of the counterion distribution around highly charged objects where strong condensation of counterions takes place. Within a field-theoretic formulation using a fluctuating electrostatic…
We report on the observation of a unique honeycomb charge ordering of the cleaved IrTe$_2$ surface by high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). IrTe$_2$ was recently established to exhibit intriguing stripe…
Carbon monoxide and nitrogen are among the potentially interesting high-energy density materials. However, in spite of the physical similarities of the molecules, they behave very differently at high pressures. Using density functional…
When two periodic potentials compete in materials, one may adopt the other, which straightforwardly generates topological defects. Of particular interest are domain walls in charge-, dipole-, and spin-ordered systems, which govern…
Recent experiments on the silicon terminated $3\times 2$ SiC(100) surface indicated an unexpected metallic character upon hydrogen adsorption. This effect was attributed to the bonding of hydrogen to a row of Si atoms and to the…
The Higgs potentials of extended Higgs sectors exhibit a complex and interesting vacuum structure. When travelling back in time, i.e. going to higher temperatures, the structure may change and exhibit interesting phase patterns and…
We derive the boundary conditions for MoS$_2$ and similar transition-metal dichalcogenide honeycomb (2H polytype) monolayers with the same type of $\mathbf{k}\!\cdot\!\mathbf{p}$ Hamiltonian within the continuum model around the K points.…
We present LayerPCM, an extension of the polarizable-continuum model coupled to real-time time-dependent density-functional theory for an efficient and accurate description of the electrostatic interactions between molecules and…
Heterostructures of stacked two-dimensional lattices have shown great promise for engineering novel material properties. As an archetypal example of such a system, the hexagon-shared honeycomb-kagome lattice has been experimentally…
In the standard treatment of heterogeneous nucleation on a surface, the energy of the surface is assumed to be homogeneous. Often its value is obtained from some macroscopic measurement. We ask the question what happens if we consider the…
A theoretical description of shell structure for charged particles in a harmonic trap is explored at strong coupling conditions of $\Gamma$ = 50 and 100. The theory is based on an extension of the hypernetted chain approximation to confined…
Higher-order topological phase in 2-dimensional (2D) systems is characterized by in-gap corner states, which are hard to detect and utilize. We numerically investigate transport properties of topological corner states in 2D honeycomb…
The low energy spectrum of a particle in planar honeycomb lattices is conical, which leads to the unusual electronic properties of graphene. In this letter we calculate the quasienergy spectra of a charged particle in honeycomb lattices…
Nonlinear ionic screening theory for heterogeneously charged spheres is developed in terms of a mode-decomposition of the surface charge. A far-field analysis of the resulting electrostatic potential leads to a natural generalization of…
Possibility of the structured mixed phases at first order phase transitions in neutron stars is reexamined by taking into account the charge screening effect. The Maxwell construction is shown to be not conflicted with the Gibbs conditions…
In this work the systematic theory of discharge structure is built for highly electronegative plasma, by means of self-consistent fluid model simulation that is based on the finite element method. The highly electronegative plasma is…
A common thread in designing electrochemically-based renewable energy devices comprises materials that exploit nano-scale morphologies, e.g., supercapacitors, batteries, fuel cells, and bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaics. In these…
Macromolecules based on dendritic or hyperbranched polyelectrolytes have been emerging as high potential candidates for biomedical applications. Here we study the charge and solvation structure of dendritic polyglycerol sulphate (dPGS) of…
