We use high resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the electronic structure of trigonal phase ${\rm PtBi_2}$ (t-${\rm PtBi_2}$), a proposed Weyl semimetal that is…
Superconductors derived from topological insulators and topological crystalline insulators by doping have long been considered to be candidates as topological superconductors. Pb$_{0.5}$Sn$_{0.5}$Te is a topological crystalline insulator…
A new superconductor (Na0.25K0.45)Ba3Bi4O12, having an A-site-ordered double perovskite structure, with a maximum Tc ~ 27 K has very recently been discovered through hydrothermal synthesis at 593 K. The structural, elastic, electronic, and…
Electronic polarization is evaluated in pentacene crystals and in thin films on a metallic substrate using a self-consistent method for computing charge redistribution in non-overlapping molecules. The optical dielectric constant and its…
Based on first-principles study, we report the finding of a new topological semimetal LiBaBi in half-Heusler phase. The remarkable feature of this nonmagnetic, inversion-symmetry-breaking material is that it consists of only simple $s$- and…
Stanene is a two-dimensional (2D) buckled honeycomb structure which has been studied recently owing to its promising electronic properties for potential electronic and spintronic applications in nanodevices. In this article, we present a…
This paper explores the potential for spin-triplet superconductivity in molecular beam epitaxy grown PbTe/SnTe semiconductor heterostructures. We present convincing evidence for spin-triplet pairing by soft point-contact spectroscopy…
The anisotropic charge carrier mobilities of two phenancene series compounds such as dibenzo[a,c]picene (DBP) and tribenzo[a,c,k]tetraphene (TBT) is investigated based on the first-principle calculations and Marcus-Hush theory. The…
We report superconductivity at $T_c = 1.22$ K and magnetic order at $T_N = 1.06$ K in the semi-metallic noncentrosymmetric Half Heusler compound ErPdBi. The upper critical field, $B_{c2}$, has an unusual quasi-linear temperature variation…
The structural and electronic properties of a single pentacene molecule and a pentacene molecular crystal, an organic semiconductor, are examined by a first-principles method based on the generalized gradient approximation of density…
We study the electronic structure of an ordered array of poly(para-phenylene) chains produced by surface-catalyzed dehalogenative polymerization of 1,4-dibromobenzene on copper (110). The quantization of unoccupied molecular states is…
A new organic superconductor, possibly with formula $K_3$ p-terphenyl, has been discovered by Wang, Gao, Huang and Chen, reaching a very high $T_c$ of about 120~K. Besides a clear diamagnetic signal, most other details such as stoichiometry…
Phase-sensitive measurements on a composite ring made of a superconductor of interest connected by a known singlet $s$-wave superconductor can unambiguously determine its pairing symmetry. In composite rings with epitaxial $\beta-$Bi$_2$Pd…
We study unconventional superconductivity in thin exfoliated single crystals of a promising 3D topological superconductor candidate, Nb-doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$ through Andreev reflection spectroscopy and magneto-transport. Measurements of…
A theoretical investigation is made of the dispersion characteristics of plasmons in a two-dimensional periodic system of semiconductor (dielectric) cylinders embedded in a dielectric (semiconductor) background. We consider both square and…
Drawing inspiration from bilayer graphene, this paper introduces its photonic analog comprising two stacked graphene-like photonic crystals, that are coupled in the near-field through spoof surface plasmons. Beyond the twist degree of…
In conventional electrides, excess electrons are localized in crystal voids to serve as anions. Most of these electrides are metallic and the metal cations are primarily from the s-block, d-block, or rare-earth elements. Here, we report a…
Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBG), with rotational misalignment close to 1.1$^\circ$, features isolated flat electronic bands that host a rich phase diagram of correlated insulating, superconducting, ferromagnetic, and topological…
The band structure and size-scaling of electronic properties in self-assembled cyclic oligothiophene nanotubes are investigated using density functional theory (DFT) for the first time. In these unique tubular aggregates, the {\pi}-{\pi}…
In this paper we analyze the band-structure of two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites by considering structures related to the simpler case of the series, (BA)$_2$PbI$_4$, in which PbI$_4$ layers are intercalated with butylammonium…
