Linear-scaling techniques for Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) are essential to describe the ground state properties of extended systems. Still, these techniques often rely on the locality of the density matrix or on accurate…
Unlike covalent two-dimensional (2D) materials like graphene, 2D metals have non-layered structures due to their non-directional, metallic bonding. While experiments on 2D metals are still scarce and challenging, density-functional theory…
