First-principles density functional theory (DFT) is employed to evaluate the structural, electronic, optical, thermoelectric, and electrocatalytic properties of monolayer CrSi2N4. Its symmetric N-Si-N-Cr-N-Si-N septuple-layer structure…

The possibility of an inhomogeneous charge density wave phase is investigated in a system of two coupled electron and hole monolayers separated by a hexagonal boron nitride insulating layer. The charge density wave state is induced through…

Due to the relatively low formation energies and highly mobile characteristics of atomic vacancies in phosphorene, understanding their evolutions becomes crucial for its structural integrity, chemical activities and applications. Herein, by…

The manipulation of individual colloidal particles using optical tweezers has allowed vacancies to be created in two-dimensional (2d) colloidal crystals, with unprecedented possibility of real-time monitoring the dynamics of such defects…

We investigate the native point defects in the long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) detector material Hg$_{0.75}$Cd$_{0.25}$Te using a dielectric-dependent hybrid density functional combined with spin-orbit coupling. Characterizing these point…

Constrained density functional theory (CDFT) is used to evaluate the energy level alignment of a benzene molecule as it approaches a graphene sheet. Within CDFT the problem is conveniently mapped onto evaluating total energy differences…
