The shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory of plastic deformation predicts that sufficiently soft, non-crystalline solids are linearly unstable against forming periodic arrays of microstructural shear bands. A limited nonlinear analysis…
Hydrogenation has proven to be an effective tool to open the bandgap of graphene. In the present density functional study we demonstrate that single-side-hydrogenated graphene is a semiconductor with an indirect bandgap of 1.89 eV, in…
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 have investigated the electronic structure of charged bilayer and trilayer phoshporene using first-principles, density-functional-theory calculations. We find that the effective dielectric constant for an external electric field applied…
We report first principles calculations of the structural, electronic, elastic and vibrational properties of the semiconducting orthorhombic ZnSb compound. We study also the intrinsic point defects in order to eventually improve the…
Based on first-principles density functional calculations, we show that SnS and SnSe layers can form mechanically rigid heterostructures with the constituent puckered or buckled monolayers. Due to the strong interlayer coupling, the…
Using full potential density functional calculations within local density approximation (LDA), we report our investigation of the structural electronic properties of silicene (the graphene analogue of silicon), the strips of which has been…
We present electronic and transport properties of a zigzag nanoribbon made of alpha-$\mathcal{T}_3$ lattice. Our particular focus is on the effects of the continous evolution of the edge modes ( from flat to dispersive) on the…
Theoretical progress in graphene physics has largely relied on the application of a simple nearest-neighbor tight-binding model capable of predicting many of the electronic properties of this material. However, important features that…
Polyacetylene, a simple yet fascinating polymer, has been of great interest for its unique electronic properties. However, the role of electronic correlation effects in polyacetylene still has not been explored fully on an ab initio basis.…
We analyze the effect of tensional strain in the electronic structure of graphene. In the absence of electron-electron interactions, within linear elasticity theory, and a tight-binding approach, we observe that strain can generate a bulk…
The structural, electronic and optical properties of nearly ferromagnetic compound HfZn2 have been studied using ab-initio technique. We have carried out the plane-wave pseudopotential approach within the framework of the first-principles…
We study by molecular dynamics the structural properties of single layer h-BN in comparison to graphene. We show that the Tersoff bond order potential developed for BN by Albe, Moller and Heinig gives a thermally stable hexagonal single…
Adhesive interactions between elastic structures such as graphene sheets, carbon nanotubes, and microtubules have been shown to exhibit hysteresis due to irrecoverable energy loss associated with bond breakage, even in static…
The first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to investigate the atomic and electronic properties of thiadiazole adsorption on the Si(001) surface. A (2x2) reconstructed clean substrate surface has been…

The main result of this work is a homogenization theorem via variational convergence for elastic materials with stiff checkerboard-type heterogeneities under the assumptions of physical growth and non-self-interpenetration. While the…
The elastic property of membranes self-assembled from AB diblock and ABA triblock copolymers, as coarse-grained model of lipids and the bolalipids, are studied using the self-consistent field theory (SCFT). Specifically, solutions of the…
We study the energetic stability and the local electronic structure of the general twisted trilayer graphene (TTG) with the top and bottom layers rotated with respect to the middle layer respectively by $\theta$ and $\theta'$. Approximate…
Anisotropic two-dimensional layered materials with low-symmetric lattices have attracted increasing attention due to their unique orientation-dependent mechanical properties. Black arsenic (b-As), with the puckered structure, exhibits…
