We present a novel model to describe conduction band of GaN_xAs_{1-x} (GaNAs). As well known, GaNAs shows exotic behavior such as large band gap bowing. Although there are various models to describe the conduction band of GaNAs, origin of…

We have observed superconductivity in heavy p-doped Ge by measuring of differential resistance dV/dI(V) of Ge - PtIr point contacts. The superconducting (SC) features disappear above 6 K or above 1 T, what can be taken as the critical…

We formulate a low energy effective Hamiltonian to study superlattices in bilayer graphene (BLG) using a minimal model which supports quadratic band touching points. We show that a one dimensional (1D) periodic modulation of the chemical…

Electronic structures of Ge$_{1-x}$Sn$_{x}$ alloys (0 $\leq$ $x$ $\leq$ 1) are theoretically studied by nonlocal empirical pseudopotential method. For relaxed Ge$_{1-x}$Sn$_{x}$, a topological semimetal is found for $\textit x$ $>$ 41$\%$…

The unprecedented wide bandgap tunability (~1 eV) of Al$_x$In$_{1-x}$As$_y$Sb$_{1-y}$ latticed-matched to GaSb enables the fabrication of photodetectors over a wide range from near-infrared to mid-infrared. In this paper, the valence…

Unlike cubic GeSn, which requires a high Sn concentration to undergo an indirect-to-direct bandgap transition, lonsdaleite (2H) germanium is an intrinsic direct-gap semiconductor. We employ first-principles density functional theory to…

Graphene lacks an intrinsic band-gap, which limits its use in electronic applications. Here we demonstrate that periodic arrays of topological defects can open and control a band-gap in a predictable manner governed by defect spacing and…

Point-contact measurements on the carbon-substituted Mg(B$_{1-x}$C$_x$)$_2$ filament/powder samples directly reveal a retention of the two superconducting energy gaps in the whole doping range from $x = 0$ to $x \approx 0.1$. The large gap…

The band alignment in ZnO/GaN and related heterostructures are crucial for the uses in solar harvesting technology. Here, we report our density functional calculations of the band alignment and optical properties of ZnO/GaN and…

Optical and electronic properties of two dimensional few layers graphitic silicon carbide (GSiC), in particular monolayer and bilayer, are investigated by density functional theory and found different from that of graphene and silicene.…

Complementary angle-resolved photoemission and bulk-sensitive k-resolved resonant inelastic x-ray scattering of divalent hexaborides reveal a >1 eV X-point gap between the valence and conduction bands, in contradiction to the band overlap…

A finite electronic band gap is a standard filter in high-throughput screening of materials using density functional theory (DFT). However, because of the systematic underestimation of band gaps in standard DFT approximations, a number of…

We report the superconductivity in Ca-intercalated bilayer graphene C$_6$CaC$_6$, the thinnest limit of Ca graphite intercalation compound. We performed \textit{in situ} electrical transport measurements on pristine bilayer graphene,…

The electronic properties of ABX3 (A = Cs, CH3NH3, NH2CHNH2; B = Sn, Pb; X = Cl, Br, I) type compounds in the cubic phase are systematically studied using the first-principles calculations. We find that these compounds have direct band gaps…

In this paper we assess the predictive power of the self-consistent hybrid functional scPBE0 in calculating the band gap of oxide semiconductors. The computational procedure is based on the self-consistent evaluation of the mixing parameter…

New generation Indium based lead-free Cs2InAgCl6 is a promising halide material in photovoltaic applications due to its good air stability and non-toxic behavior. But its wide band gap (>3 eV) is not suitable for solar spectrum and hence…

In this communication, we report a theoretical attempt to understand the electronic and optical properties of germagraphene, a two-dimensional graphene analogue. We study two different structures, C$_{17}$Ge and C$_{16}$Ge. In the…

We investigate the transport properties of a junction consisting of an electron-hole bilayer in contact with normal and superconducting leads. The electron-hole bilayer is considered as a semi-metal with two electronic bands. We assume that…

Two-dimensional silicon carbide stands out among 2D materials, primarily due to its notable band gap, unlike its carbon-based counterparts. However, the binary nature and non-layered structure of bulk SiC present challenges in fabricating…

With the development of modern nanoscience and nanotechnology, Bi1-xSbx can be synthesized into different nanoscale and nanostructured forms, including thin films, nanowires, nanotubes, nanoribbons, and many others. However, due to the…
