Recently, intriguing physical properties have been unraveled in anisotropic semiconductors, in which the in-plane electronic band structure anisotropy often originates from the low crystallographic symmetry. The atomic chain is the ultimate…
The presence of defects in the narrow-gap semiconductors GaSb and InSb affects their dopability and hence applicability for a range of optoelectronic applications. Here, we report hybrid density functional theory based calculations of the…
Thin films of amorphous (a)-TiO2 are ubiquitous as photocatalysts, protective coatings, photoanodes and in memory application, where they are exposed to excess electrons and holes. We investigate trapping of excess electrons and holes in…
Recently, the successful synthesis of the pentagonal form of PdTe$_{2}$ monolayer (\emph{p}-PdTe$_{2}$) was reported [Liu~\emph{et al.}, Nature Materials \textbf{23}, 1339 (2024)]. In this work, we present an extensive first-principles…
A combination of Photoemission, Atomic Force and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy/Spectroscopy measurements shows that excess electrons in TiO2 anatase (101) surface are trapped at step edges. Consequently, steps act as preferred adsorption…
We present a comprehensive study of the electronic structure of the layered semiconductor InSe using density functional theory. We calculate the band structure of the monolayer and bulk material with the band gap corrected using hybrid…
We discuss the applicability of the pseudopotential-like self-interaction correction (pSIC) to the study of defect energetics and electronic structure of In2O3. Our results predict that substitutional (at oxygen sites) and interstitial (at…
We report a first-principles study on the geometric, electronic and magnetic properties of V-doped anatase TiO$_{2}$. The DFT+U (Hubbard coefficient) approach predicts semiconductor band structures for Ti$_{1-x}$V$_{x}$O$_{2}$ (x=6.25 and…

We have used density functional theory calculations based on the projector augmented wave method to investigate the electronic structure of Au-incorporated anatase TiO$_2$(001) surface. Due to the coordination with several level oxygens, Au…
We perform first-principles calculations to investigate the band structure, density of states, optical absorption, and the imaginary part of dielectric function of Cu, Ag, and Au-doped anatase TiO2 in 72 atoms systems. The electronic…
We provide a systematic study on the electronic structure of a series of Ta$_2$O$_5$ polymorphs using standard density functional theory (DFT) calculations as well as the more accurate many-body perturbation theory within the GW…
Calculations of formation energies and charge transition levels of defects routinely rely on density functional theory (DFT) for describing the electronic structure. Since bulk band gaps of semiconductors and insulators are not well…
The electronic properties of quasi-one-dimensional anatase TiO2 nanostructures, in the form of thin nanowires having (101) and (001) facets, have been systematically investigated using the standard, hybrid density functional and…
Systematic investigation of atomic structure of N-ion implanted TiO2 (thin films and bulk ceramics) was performed by XPS measurements (core levels and valence bands) and first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In bulk…
A topological insulator possesses a bulk energy gap splitting the lowest empty band from the highest occupied electronic band. The electronic states at the surface (or edge in two dimensions), on the other hand, of a topological insulator…
We systematically investigated native defects and reconstructions of TiO2 anatase (101) using USPEX and VASP codes. For lightly reduced samples, the coverage of O vacancies at surface depends on its concentration in bulk, while Ti…
