In this paper, using the generalized coupled pseudoforce model with driving elements, we develop a method to study the plasmon excitations and energy band structure in a plasmonic crystal. It is shown that the presence of the periodic ion…
We present an implementation of the optimised effective potential (OEP) scheme for the exact-exchange (EXX) and random phase approximation (RPA) energy functionals and apply these methods to a range of bulk materials. We calculate the…
Controlling the electronic properties via bandstructure engineering is at the heart of modern semiconductor devices. Here, we extend this concept to semimetals where, utilizing LuSb as a model system, we show that quantum confinement lifts…
The Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator transition is one of the most important problems in correlated electron systems. In the past decade, much progress has been made on examining a particle-hole symmetric form of the transition in the Hubbard…
We report on the realisation of a stiff magnetic trap with independently adjustable trap frequencies, $\omega_z$ and $\omega_r$, in the axial and radial directions respectively. This has been achieved by applying an axial modulation to a…
An open supersymmetric t-J chain with boundary fields is studied by means of the Bethe Ansatz. Ground state properties for the case of an almost half-filled band and a bulk magnetic field are determined. Boundary susceptibilities are…
The asymptotics of the Kohn-Sham (KS) exact exchange potential $V_x(z)$ of a jelliumlike semi-infinite metal is investigated, in the framework of the optimized-effective-potential formalism of density-functional theory. Our numerical…
The dispersive wave propagation in a periodic metamaterial with tetrachiral topology and inertial local resonators is investigated. The Floquet-Bloch spectrum of the metamaterial is compared with that of the tetrachiral beam lattice…
Externally controllable band gap properties of a material is crucial in designing optoelectronic devices with desirable properties on-demand. Here, a possibility of single parameter tuning of trivial to non-trivial topological band gap by…
The Kibble balance realizes the kilogram by linking mechanical and electrical quantities via a magnet system. In an improved BIPM-type magnet design by Tsinghua University, an open/close surface was incorporated, facilitating operation.…
The existence of a strongly interacting sector responsible for the electroweak symmetry breaking is assumed. As a consequence vector and axial-vector bound states may be formed. These resonances mix with the Standard Model gauge bosons and…
We present an electrostatic theory of band gap renormalization in atomically-thin semiconductors that captures the strong sensitivity to the surrounding dielectric environment. In particular, our theory aims to correct known band gaps, such…
The tight-binding model of bilayer graphene is used to find the gap between the conduction and valence bands, as a function of both the gate voltage and as the doping by donors or acceptors. The total Hartree energy is minimized and the…
We establish dispersion engineering rules that allow us to control the thermalization process and the thermal state of an initial beam propagating in a multimode nonlinear photonic circuit. To this end, we have implemented a kinetic…
An exchange-correlation energy functional $ E_{\mathrm xc} $ and the resultant exchange-correlation potential $ v_{\mathrm xc}({\bf r}) $ in density-functional theory are proposed using orbital-dependent coupling-constant-averaged pair…
A new two dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ Supersymmetric Non-Linear Sigma Model describes the dynamics of internal moduli of the BPS semi-local vortex string supported in four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ SQED. While the core of these…
Two Dimensional (2D) Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDs) possess a large direct band gap which has been experimentally observed to shrink with increasing charge carrier density (doping). The effect has been the subject of theoretical…
Boltzmann transport calculations based on band structures generated with density functional theory (DFT) are often used in the discovery and analysis of thermoelectric materials. In standard implementations, such calculations require dense…
Breaking reciprocity has recently gained significant attention due to its broad range of applications in engineering systems. Here, we introduce the first experimental demonstration of a broadband mechanical beam waveguide, which can be…
The Bures metric and the associated Bures-Hall measure is arguably the best choice for studying the spectrum of the quantum mechanical density matrix with no apriori knowledge of the system. We investigate the probability of a gap in the…
