We revisit the problem of adsorption of a single He-4 layer on graphene, focusing on the commensurate C1/3 crystalline phase, specifically on whether it may possess a nonzero superfluid response, and on the existence of superfluid phases,…
We calculated the phase diagram of the second layer of $para$-H$_2$ adsorbed on graphite using quantum Monte Carlo methods. The second layer shows an incommensurate triangular crystal structure. By using a symmetric wave function, that…
We revisited the phase diagram of the second layer of 4He on top of graphite using quantum Monte Carlo methods. Our aim was to explore the existence of the novel phases suggested recently in experimental works, and determine their…
A quantum Monte Carlo approach, considering all the corrugation effects, was used to calculate the complete phase diagram of the second $^3$He layer adsorbed on graphite. We found that a first-layer triangular solid was in equilibrium with…
Using a diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) technique, we calculated the phase diagrams of $^4$He and H$_2$ adsorbed on a single (5,5) carbon nanotube, one of the narrowest that can be obtained experimentally. For a single monolayer, when the…
Evidence for a new type of superfluid phase in second-layer $^4$He on graphite has been obtained from simultaneous measurements of torsional-oscillator response and heat-capacity on exactly the same sample down to 30 mK, which resolve…
Using a path-integral Monte Carlo method for simulating superfluid quantum films, we investigate helium layers adsorbed on a substrate consisting of graphite plus two solid helium layers. Our results for the promotion densities and the…
The second layer of $^4$He films adsorbed on a graphite substrate is an excellent experimental platform to study the interplay between superfluid and structural orders. Here, we report a rigid two-frequency torsional oscillator study on the…
Recent heat-capacity experiments show quite unambiguously the existence of a liquid $^3$He phase adsorbed on graphite. This liquid is stable at an extremely low density, possibly one of the lowest found in Nature. Previous theoretical…
By using the diffusion Monte Carlo method, we obtained the full phase diagram of $^3$He on top of graphite preplated with a solid layer of $^4$He. All the $^4$He atoms of the substrate were explicitly considered and allowed to move during…
The second layer of He-4 adsorbed on a graphite substrate is studied by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We make use of a microscopic model of the substrate fully accounting for its corrugation, and compare the results to those obtained…
We present results of a theoretical study of 4He films adsorbed on graphite, based on the continuous space worm algorithm. In the first layer, we find a domain-wall phase and a (7/16) registered structure between the commensurate (1/3) and…
The phase diagram at zero temperature of $^4$He adsorbed on an helium incommensurate triangular solid on top of a single graphene sheet has been obtained using the diffusion Monte Carlo method. We have found that, in accordance with…
The phase diagram of the first layer of $^4$He adsorbed on a single graphene sheet has been calculated by a series of diffusion Monte Carlo calculations including corrugation effects. As the number of C-He interactions is reduced with…
Quantum Monte Carlo simulations at zero temperature of a $^3$He monolayer adsorbed on graphite, either clean or preplated with $^4$He, unexpectedly point to a gas-liquid phase transition at a very low areal density of the order of…
The low temperature phase diagram of $^4$He adsorbed on a single graphene sheet is studied by computer simulation of a system comprising nearly thousand helium atoms. In the first layer, two commensurate solid phases are observed, with…
The superfluid response of nanoscale size quasi-2D He-4 droplets adsorbed on a graphite substrate is investigated by computer simulations. It is found that clusters comprising as few as 7 atoms are stable at temperatures lower than < 0.15…
The phase diagram of the first layer of H$_2$ adsorbed on top of a single graphene sheet has been calculated by means of a series of diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) simulations. We have found that, as in the case of $^4$He, the ground state of…
The specific heat of a two-layer He-4 film adsorbed on a graphite substrate is estimated as a function of temperature by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The results are consistent with recent experimental observations, in that they broadly…
We study by Quantum Monte Carlo simulations the phase diagram of lattice hard core bosons with nearest-neighbour repulsive interactions, in the presence of a super-lattice of adsorption sites. For a moderate adsorption strength, the system…
