Interface state densities, $D_{IT}$, in metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitors are rarely reported in the accumulation energy range. It is recognized that the determination of $D_{IT}$ in accumulation is fundamentally obscured by small…
Interfaces between transition-metal oxides are able to host two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) and exhibit exotic quantum phenomena. Here we report the observation of superconductivity below 230 mK for the heterostructure composed of…
We investigate the behavior of a patchy particle model close to a hard-wall via Monte Carlo simulation and density functional theory (DFT). Two DFT approaches, based on the homogeneous and inhomogeneous versions of Wertheim's first order…
We show, with both experiment and theory, that adsorption of $CO_2$ is sensitive to charge on a capturing model carbonaceous surface. In the experiment we dope superfluid helium droplets with $C_{60}$ and $CO_2$ and expose them to ionising…
Low-energy instabilities in the hole doped cuprates include, besides short range antiferromagnetic fluctuations and superconductivity, also ubiquitous translational and rotational symmetry breakings. The overwhelming majority of…
Density functional theory (DFT) within the local density approximation (LDA) is used to understand the electronic properties of Na1/3CoO2 and Na1/3CoO2(H2O)4/3, which was recently found to be superconducting1. Comparing the LDA charge…
Electrochemical energy and substance conversion devices involve complex electrode processes, characterized by multiple charge transfer steps, competing pathways, and various intermediates. Such complexity makes it challenging to enhance…
LiBO$_{2}$ is an electronic insulator and a promising surface coating for stabilizing high-voltage cathodes in lithium-ion batteries. Despite its potential, the functional mechanisms of this coating remain unclear, particularly the…
This study investigates the photocatalytic nitrogen fixation on a cation-doped surface (Bi$_{x}$M$_{y}$)$_2$MoO$_6$ where (M = Fe, La, Yb) in both the orthorhombic and monoclinic configurations using a density functional theory (DFT)…
We present a novel relativistic density-functional approach to modeling quark matter with a mechanism to mimic confinement. The quasiparticle treatment of quarks provides their suppression due to a large quark selfenergy already at the…
Under various conditions of the growth process, when the presumably unconventional superconductor Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ (SRO) contains micro-inclusions of Ru metal, the superconducting critical temperature increases significantly. An STEM study…
The origin of the partial suppression of the electronic density states in the enigmatic pseudogap behavior, which is at the core of understanding high-$T_c$ superconductivity, has been hotly contested as either a hallmark of preformed…
In this paper, a two-dimensional analytical model of a laterally graded-channel triple-metal double-gate Junctionless Field Effect Transistor with hetero dielectric gate oxide stack consisting of SiO$_2$ and HfO$_2$ is derived. The model…
Using density-functional theory, we predict that the oxidation of the Ru(0001) surface proceeds via the accumulation of sub-surface oxygen in two-dimensional islands between the first and second substrate layer. This leads locally to a…
Ga2O3 is a wide-band-gap semiconductor of great interest for applications in electronics and optoelectronics. Two-dimensional (2D) Ga2O3 synthesized from top-down or bottom-up processes can reveal brand new heterogeneous structures and…
In the quest of green energy, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) have drawn considerable attention for chemical-to-electric energy conversion. In the present paper, we report an enhancement of ionic conductivity in Cu2P2-xVxO7 by vanadium…
The practical application of sodium-ion hybrid capacitors is limited by their low energy densities resulted from the kinetics mismatch between cathodes and anodes, and the fire safety related to the flammable electrolyte-separator system.…
Mo$_8$O$_{23}$ is a low-dimensional chemically robust transition metal oxide coming from a prospective family of functional materials, MoO$_{3-x}$, ranging from a wide gap insulator $(x=0)$ to a metal $(x=1)$. The large number of…
The metallic oxide RuO$_2$ hosts a fascinating edge case of magnetism: while nonmagnetic in ideal bulk material, density functional theory (DFT) predicts an altermagnetic ground state within the DFT$+U$ method. The magnetic state of…
Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations of electrode material properties in high energy density storage devices like lithium batteries have been standard practice for decades. In contrast, DFT modelling of explicit interfaces in…
