A nano-system in which electrons interact and in contact with Fermi leads gives rise to an effective one-body scattering which depends on the presence of other scatterers in the attached leads. This non local effect is a pure many-body…
We find a characteristic low-energy peak structure located in the range of 100-300 cm$^{-1}$ in the optical conductivity spectra of a quasi-two-dimensional organic compound with a triangular lattice,…
An effective low-energy Hamiltonian of itinerant electrons for iridium oxide Na2IrO3 is derived by an ab initio downfolding scheme. The model is then reduced to an effective spin model on a honeycomb lattice by the strong coupling…
We have investigated the excitation spectra of $j_{eff}$=$\frac{1}{2}$ Mott insulator Na$_2$IrO$_3$. Taking into account a relativistic multiplet structure of Ir ions, we have calculated the optical conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ and…
Background: Collective excitations of nuclei and their theoretical descriptions provide an insight into the structure of nuclei. Replacing traditional phenomenological interactions with unitarily transformed realistic nucleon-nucleon…
Using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and optical ellipsometry, room temperature spectra of complex conductivity of single crystals of hexaborides Gd$_x$La$_{1-x}$B$_6$, $x$(Gd)$=0$, 0.01, 0.1, 0.78, 1 are determined in the…
Thermomagnetic and inelastic neutron scattering measurements on Na2PrO3 are reported. This material is an antiferromagnetic honeycomb magnet based on the tetravalent lanthanide Pr4+ and has been proposed to host dominant antiferromagnetic…
We consider the excitonic insulator state (often associated with electronic ferroelectricity), which arises on the phase diagram of an extended spinless Falicov--Kimball model (FKM) at half-filling. Within the Hartree--Fock approach, we…
The excitations in honeycomb $\alpha$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$ have been investigated with high-resolution resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at the O K edge. The low-energy response is dominated by a fully resolved ladder of excitations,…
We investigate different types of collective excitations in a quantum dot containing finite number of electrons at zero magnetic field. To estimate the excitation energies analytically we follow the energy weighted sum-rule approach. We…
To determine the strength of essential electronic and magnetic interactions in the iridates Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ and Ba$_2$IrO$_4$ - potential platforms for high-temperature superconductivity - we use many-body techniques from wavefunction-based…
Direct experimental investigations of the low-energy electronic structure of the Na$_2$IrO$_3$ iridate insulator are sparse and draw two conflicting pictures. One relies on flat bands and a clear gap, the other involves dispersive states…
By studying the lowest excitations of an exactly solvable one-dimensional molecular model, we show that components of Kohn-Sham ensembles can be used to describe charge transfers. Furthermore, we compute the approximate excitation energies…
We investigate the dynamical properties of ${\rm Na_2IrO_3}$. For five effective models proposed for ${\rm Na_2IrO_3}$, we numerically calculate dynamical structure factors (DSFs) with an exact diagonalization method. An effective model…
Valuable dynamical and structural information about neat liquid DMSO at ambient conditions can be obtained through study of low frequency vibrations in the far infrared (FIR), that is, terahertz regime. For DMSO, collective excitations as…
The role of the exchange-correlation potential and the exchange-correlation kernel in the calculation of excitation energues from time-dependent density functional theory is studied. Excitation energies of the He and Be atoms are…
Photoinduced charge-transfer processes play a key role for novel photovoltaic phenomena and devices. Thus, the development of ab initio methods that allow for an accurate and computationally inexpensive treatment of charge-transfer…
We report a resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of electronic excitations in Li_2CuO_2, an insulating compound comprised of ribbons of edge-sharing copper-oxygen chains. Three excitations, which show little dependence on momentum…
In an ensemble of laser-driven atoms involving strongly interacting Rydberg states, the excitation probability is usually strongly suppressed. In contrast, here we identify a regime in which the steady-state Rydberg excited fraction is…
A sharp collective charge excitation is predicted in MgB$_2$ at $\sim2.5eV$ for $q$ perpendicular to the boron layers, based on an all-electron analysis of the dynamical density response within time-dependent density functional theory. This…
