Alkali metal atoms (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs), dimers and (2$\times$2) monolayers on a graphite (0001) surface have been studied using density functional theory, pseudopotentials, and a periodic substrate. The adatoms bind at the hollow site…
As the bulk single-crystal MoN2/ReN2 with a layered structure was successfully synthesized in experiment, transition-metal dinitrides have attracted considerable attention in recent years. Here, we focus on rare-earth-metal (Rem) elements…
