We discuss bi-structures with one or two long bonds in the central part of the strained monoatomic chains appearing abruptly as a result of hard bifurcations of the static form with increasing strain above some critical value. Structures of…
Nonlinear vibrations in strained monoatomic carbon chains are studied with the aid of ab initio methods based on the density functional theory. An unexpected phenomenon of structural transformation at the atomic level above a certain value…
We study the ground-state properties of one-dimensional fluids of classical (i.e., non-quantum) particles interacting pairwisely via a potential, at the fixed particle density $\rho$. Restricting ourselves to periodic configurations of…
Recent density functional theory (DFT) calculations by Foerst et al. have predicted that vacancies in both low and high carbon steels have a carbon dimer bound to them. This is likely to change the thinking of metallurgists in the kinetics…
We derive an exact representation of the exchange-correlation energy within density functional theory (DFT) which spawns a class of approximations leading to correct long-range asymptotic behavior. In what amounts to be the simplest…
We present a state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) study which models crucial features of the partially disordered orbital order stacking in the prototypical layered transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS2 . Our results not only…
In strained monoatomic chains with Lennard-Jones interactions, we revealed a stable static non-homogeneous structure appearing as a result of a certain phase transition. Positions of individual particles in this structure form an exact…
Understanding the atomic structure and energetic stability of ferrite-cementite interfaces is essential for optimizing the mechanical performance of steels, especially under extreme conditions such as those encountered in nuclear fusion…
Two (so-called left and right) variants of N-centered ensemble density-functional theory (DFT) [Senjean and Fromager, Phys. Rev. A 98, 022513 (2018)] are presented. Unlike the original formulation of the theory, these variants allow for the…
Using dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) methods we investigate the laning instability of a sheared colloidal suspension. The nonequilibrium ordering at the laning transition is driven by non-affine particle motion arising from…
NpT ensemble Monte Carlo simulations were performed for fully flexible Lennard-Jones chains in the solid phase. The bond length between monomers within the chains is fixed to $L=\sigma$ and the molecule is free to adopt any configuration.…
Density functional theory (DFT), the most widely adopted method in modern computational chemistry, fails to describe accurately the electronic structure of strongly correlated systems. Here we show that DFT can be formally and practically…
We present a multi-scale density functional theory (DFT) informed molecular dynamics and tight-binding (TB) approach to capture the interdependent atomic and electronic structures of twisted bilayer graphene. We calibrate the flat band…
A critical challenge for density functional theory (DFT) in practice is its limited ability to treat static electron correlation, leading to errors in its prediction of charges, multiradicals, and reaction barriers. Recently, we combined…
It is shown that the enthalpy of any close packed structure for a given element can be characterised as a linear expansion in a set of continuous variables $\alpha_n$ which describe the stacking configuration. This enables us to represent…
Nanoscale optoelectronics and molecular-electronics systems operate with current injection and nonequilibrium tunneling, phenomena that challenge consistent descriptions of the steady-state transport. The current affects the…
In contrast to the original Kohn-Sham (KS) formalism, we propose a density functional theory (DFT) with fractional orbital occupations for the study of ground states of many-electron systems, wherein strong static correlation is shown to be…
We study numerically the energetics and atomic mechanisms of misfit dislocation nucleation and stress relaxation in a two-dimensional atomistic model of strained epitaxial layers on a substrate with lattice misfit. Relaxation processes from…
The production of multiple types of graphene, such as free standing, epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide and metals, graphene in solution, chemically grown graphene-like molecules, various graphene nanoribbons, and graphene oxide with…
In this paper, electrical and electronic properties of strained mono-layer InTe for two structures, $\alpha$, and $\beta$ phases, is investigated. The band structure is obtained using density functional theory (DFT). The minimum energy and…
