We investigate the currently debated issue concerning whether transition metal substitutions dope carriers in iron based superconductors. From first-principles calculations of the configuration-averaged spectral function of BaFe$_2$As$_2$…
It has been observed that impurity doping and/or ion-beam-induced damage in high $T_{c}$ superconductors cause a metal-insulator transition and thereby suppress the critical temperature. Based on our recent theory of the weak localization…
Effects of chemical substitution of the divalent transition metals has been systematically investigated in Mg$_{1-x}M_x$B$_2$ (x=0.03; M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Zn). Substitution of magnetic ions, i.e., Mn$^{2+}$, Fe$^{2+}$, Co$^{2+}$ and…
Successful doping of single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) remains a formidable barrier to their incorporation into a range of technologies. We use density functional theory to study doping of molybdenum and tungsten…
The diversities in crystal structures and ways of doping result in extremely diversified phase diagrams for iron-based superconductors. With angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), we have systematically studied the effects of…
Topological insulators are characterized by the existence of band inversion and the possibility of the realization of surface states. Doping with a magnetic atom, which is a source of the time-reversal symmetry breaking, can lead to…
The influence of a partial substitution with S, Te, Co, Ni and Cu atoms on the electronic structure of the FeSe superconductor has been investigated within the density functional theory. The results of the supercell calculations reveal…
The self-interaction corrected local spin-density approximation is used to investigate the ground-state valency configuration of transition metal (TM=Mn, Co) impurities in p-type ZnO. Based on the total energy considerations, we find a…
Effects of impurities and disorder on quasiparticle spectrum in superconducting iron pnictides are considered. Possibility for occurrence of localized energy levels due to impurities within the superconducting gap and the related…
We theoretically study the effect of localized magnetic impurities on two-dimensional topological superconductor (TSC). We show that the local density of states (LDOS) can be tuned by the effective exchange field $m$, the chemical potential…
From first-principles calculations, we predict that transition metal (TM) atom doped silicon nanowires have a half-metallic ground state. They are insulators for one spin-direction, but show metallic properties for the opposite spin…
We report a numerical analysis of Anderson localization in a model of a doped semiconductor. The model incorporates the disorder arising from the random spatial distribution of the donor impurities and takes account of the electron-electron…
We study the superconducting proximity effect in a quantum wire with broken time-reversal (TR) symmetry connected to a conventional superconductor. We consider the situation of a strong TR-symmetry breaking, so that Cooper pairs entering…
The nature of low-impurity ferromagnetism remains a challenging problem in the solid-state community. Despite initial experiments dating back to the mid-20th century, a comprehensive theoretical explanation and reliable ab initio…
We study the effect of electron-electron interaction on the one-particle density of states (\emph{DOS}) $\rho^{(d)}(\epsilon,T)$ of low-dimensional disordered metals near Fermi energy within the framework of the finite temperature…
In this paper I discuss the electronic structure and properties of a specific, rather unconventional class of transition metal (TM) compounds, e.g. TM oxides, which formally have unusually high values of the oxidation state, or valence, of…
To reveal the relative importance of charge doping and defect scattering in substitutionally modified 122 iron pnictides, we perform a systematic first principles study on selected bands at the Fermi level. Disorder effects are induced by…
Landau Fermi liquid theory, with its pivotal assertion that electrons in metals can be simply understood as independent particles with effective masses replacing the free electron mass, has been astonishingly successful. This is true…
We study the electronic densities of states (DOS) of strongly disordered superconducting thin films of TiN. We find, using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) that the DOS decreases towards the Fermi level in the normal phase obtained by…
In ordinary metals, antiferromagnetic exchange between conduction electrons and a magnetic impurity leads to screening of the impurity spin below the Kondo temperature, $T_K$. In systems such as semimetals, small-gap semiconductors and…
