In recent years, metal halide perovskites (MHPs) for optoelectronic applications have attracted the attention of the scientific community due to their outstanding performance. The fundamental understanding of their physicochemical features…
Recently developed fused-ring electron-acceptors such as Y6 (BTP-4F) have strong oscillator strength, good charge-carrier transport and a small bandgap. They therefore have enormous current technical application to organic optoelectronics,…
The newly developed "strongly constrained and appropriately normed" (SCAN) meta-generalized-gradient approximation (meta-GGA) can generally improve over the non-empirical Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) GGA not only for strong chemical…
We propose a density functional to find the ground state energy and density of interacting particles, where both the density and the pair density can adjust in the presence of an inhomogeneous potential. As a proof of principle we formulate…
The status of different extensions of the Random Phase Approximation (RPA) is reviewed. The general framework is given within the Equation of Motion Method and the equivalent Green's function approach for the so-called Self-Consistent RPA…
The Jacob's ladder of density functional theory (DFT) proposes the compelling view that by extending the form of successful approximations -- being guided by exact conditions and selected (least empirical) norms -- upper rungs will do…
The adsorption energy of benzene on various metal substrates is predicted using the random phase approximation (RPA) for the correlation energy. Agreement with available experimental data is systematically better than 10% for both coinage…
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites present a number of challenges for first-principles atomistic materials modelling. These `plastic crystals' feature dynamic processes across multiple length-scales and time-scales, which include: (i)…
We use first-principles density functional theory (DFT) within the local density approx- imation (LDA) to ascertain the ground state structure of real and theoretical compounds with the formula ABS3 (A = K, Rb, Cs, Ca, Sr, Ba, Tl, Sn, Pb,…
A study of parameter sensitivity of nuclear energy density functionals, initiated in the first part of this work \cite{NV.16}, is extended by the inclusion of data on ground-state properties of finite nuclei in the application of the…
Hybrid AMX3 perovskites (A=Cs, CH3NH3; M=Sn, Pb; X=halide) have revolutionized the scenario of emerging photovoltaic technologies. Introduced in 2009 by Kojima et al., a rapid evolution very recently led to 15% efficient solar cells.…
The phase transitions between the various polymorphs of FAPbI$_{3}$ (FAPI, FA = formamidinium CH(NH$_{2}$)$_{2}^+$) are studied by anelastic, dielectric and X--ray diffraction measurements on samples pressed from $\delta -$FAPI (2H phase)…
We report artifact-free CH3NH3PbI3 optical constants extracted from ultra-smooth perovskite layers without air exposure and assign all the optical transitions in the visible/ultraviolet region unambiguously based on density functional…
Density functional theory is the workhorse of chemistry and materials science, and novel density functional approximations (DFAs) are published every year. To become available in program packages, the novel DFAs need to be (re)implemented.…
Alloy-based perovskite solar cells offer tunable properties and improved stability, but their complexity has impeded accurate modeling, hindering development. We present a machine-learning (ML) accelerated atomistic modeling approach for…
We reassess the phase diagram of high-pressure solid hydrogen using mean-field and many-body wave function based approaches to determine the nature of phase III of solid hydrogen. To discover the best candidates for phase III, density…
We extend the previously proposed one-parameter double-hybrid density-functional theory [K. Sharkas, J. Toulouse, and A. Savin, J. Chem. Phys. 134, 064113 (2011)] to meta-generalized-gradient-approximation (meta-GGA) exchange-correlation…
We compare the behavior of the finite-temperature Hartree-Fock model with that of thermal density functional theory using both ground-state and temperature-dependent approximate exchange functionals. The test system is bcc Li in the…
My study is about Halide Perovskites (HaPs) and focuses the fundamental structural, chemical and dielectric properties of HaPs in reference to their PV-related properties. * I present my main research model: HaP single-crystals - their…
The focus of the present work is the application of the random phase approximation (RPA), derived for inhomogeneous fluids [Frydel and Ma, Phys. Rev. E 93, 062112 (2016)], to penetrable-spheres. As penetrable-spheres transform into…
