The stability of graphene multivacancy systems is studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. This work describes the evolution of the energy of formation per carbon atom for zigzag and armchair complementary figures -i.e.…
The use of a novel three-dimensional graphene structure allows circumventing the limitations of the two-dimensional nature of graphene and its application in hydrogen absorption. Here we investigate hydrogen-bonding on monolayer graphene…
A series of MD and DFT simulations were performed to investigate hydrogen self-clustering and retention in tungsten. Using a newly develop machine learned interatomic potential, spontaneous formation of hydrogen platelets was observed after…
We use coupled-cluster quantum chemical methods to calculate the energetics of molecular clusters cut out of periodic molecular hydrogen structures that model observed phases of solid hydrogen. The hydrogen structures are obtained from…
First-principles density-functional theory has been used to investigate equilibrium geometries, total energies, and diffusion barriers for H as an interstitial impurity absorbed in $\alpha$-Fe. Internal strains/stresses upon hydrogen…

Graphynes are 2D porous structures deriving from graphene featuring triangular and regularly distributed subnanometer pores, which may be exploited to host small gaseous species. First principles adsorption energies of molecular hydrogen…
We consider a system of particles interacting via a purely repulsive, soft-core potential recently introduced to model effective pair interactions between dendrimers, which is expected to lead to the formation of crystals with multiple…
Single atoms and few-atom nanoclusters are of high interest in catalysis and plasmonics, but pathways for their fabrication and stable placement remain scarce. We report here the self-assembly of room-temperature-stable single indium (In)…
Previous experimental observations for H intercalation under graphene on SiC surfaces motivate clarification of configuration stabilities and kinetic processes related to intercalation. From first-principles density-functional-theory (DFT)…
Graphene on $L1_0$-FePd(001), which has been experimentally studied in recent years, is a heterogeneous interface with a significant lattice symmetry mismatch between the honeycomb structure of graphene and tetragonal alloy surface. In this…
