By means of first-principles methods we analyze the optical response of transparent dense sodium as a function of applied pressure. We discover an unusual kind of charge-transfer exciton that proceeds from the interstitial distribution of…
Under pressure, metals exhibit increasingly shorter interatomic distances. Intuitively, this response is expected to be accompanied by an increase in the widths of the valence and conduction bands and hence a more pronounced…
Alkali metals exhibit unexpected structures and electronic behavior at high pressures. Compression of metallic sodium (Na) to 200 GPa leads to the stability of a wide-band-gap insulator with the double hexagonal hP4 structure. Post-hP4…
The optical properties of sodium-deficient NaxV2O5 (0.85 < x <1) single crystals are analyzed in the wide energy range, from 0.012 to 4.5 eV, using ellipsometry, infrared reflectivity, and Raman scattering techniques. The material remains…
We determined the ionic and electronic structure of sodium clusters with even electron numbers and 2 to 59 atoms in axially averaged and three-dimensional density functional calculations. A local, phenomenological pseudopotential that…
NaSn2P2 is a recently discovered superconducting system belonging to a particular class of materials with van der Waals structure. There is enormous interest in such compounds because of their intriguing electrical, optical, chemical,…
We report the in-plane optical measurements on Na$_x$CoO$_2$ with 0.18$\leq$x$\leq$0.92. The crystal growth and characterization were described in detail. The spectral weight increases monotonically with decreasing x. For sample with the…

We present an ab-initio study of the electronic response function of sodium in its 5 known metallic phases from 0 to 180 GPa at room temperature. The considered formalism is based on a interpolation scheme within time-dependent density…
In this study, using the density functional theory, we have investigated the bulk physical properties like structural, electronic band structure, elastic properties, thermal properties, optical properties and bonding features of AlPO4…
Using density functional theory the atomic and electronic structure of sodium are predicted to depart substantially from those expected of simple metals for $r_s <$ 2.48 ($p > 130$ GPa). Newly-predicted phases include those with low…
We present a computational study of the electronic properties of amorphous SiO2. The ionic configurations used are the ones generated by an earlier molecular dynamics simulations in which the system was cooled with different cooling rates…
The metal-semiconductor-metal transition in dense lithium is considered as an archetype of interplay between interstitial electron localization and delocalization induced by compression, which leads to exotic electride phases. In this work,…
