The structure property of non-ideal Si/GaAs heterostructures that were integrated with the ultra-thin oxide (UO) tunneling interfacial layer has been systematically investigated. Si nanomembranes (NMs) were oxidized in different time…
Tungsten ditelluride (WTe2) has attracted significant attention due to its interesting electronic properties, such as the unsaturated magnetoresistance and superconductivity. Recently, it has been proposed to be a new type of Weyl…
Molecular Dynamics simulations are reported for the structural and thermodynamic properties of submonolayer xenon adsorbed on the $(111)$ surface of platinum for temperatures up to the (apparently incipient) triple point and beyond. While…
Isolated oxygen impurities and fully oxidized structures of four stable two-dimensional (2D) SiS structures are investigated by {\em ab initio} density functional calculations. Binding energies of oxygen impurities for all the four 2D SiS…
The intimate connection between magnetism and superconducting pairing routinely plays a central role in determining the occurrence of unconventional superconducting states. In high-transition-temperature (high-Tc) stripe-ordered cuprate…
The crux of understanding the superconducting mechanism in pressurized Ruddlesden-Popper nickelates hinges on elucidating their structural phases. Under ambient conditions, the trilayer nickelate La4Ni3O10 stabilizes in a twinned monoclinic…
In this work, we studied the adsorption behavior of deposited Si atoms along with their diffusion and other dynamic processes on a Pb monolayer-covered Si(111) surface from 125-230 K using a variable-temperature scanning tunneling…
Molecules at the air-water interface often form inhomogeneous layers in which domains of different densities are separated by sharp interfaces. Complex interfacial pattern formation may occur through the competition of short- and long-range…
Surfaces (interfaces) dictate many physical and chemical properties of solid materials and adsorbates considerably affect these properties. Nitrogen molecules, which are the most abundant constituent in ambient air, are considered to be…
We study the formation of nanostructures with alternating stripes composed of bulk-immiscible adsorbates during submonolayer heteroepitaxy. We evaluate the influence of two mechanisms considered in the literature: (i) strain relaxation by…
Computational searches for structures of solid oxygen under pressures in the multi TPa range have been carried out using density-functional-theory methods. We find that molecular oxygen persists to about 1.9 TPa at which it transforms into…
We show the possibility of tailoring the molecular arrangement, as well as the chemical and structural modifications, of porphyrins at the monolayer saturation coverage on TiO2(110) by Synchrotron photoemission, electron diffraction, STM…
The formation of ultrathin oxide layers on metal surfaces is a non-thermally-activated process which takes place spontaneously at very low temperatures within nanoseconds. This paper reports mechanistic details of the initial oxidation of…
Recently the oxygen-reconstructed tantalum surface Ta(001)-p(3$\times$3)-O has experienced considerable attention due its use as a potential platform for Majorana physics in adatom chains. Experimental studies using scanning tunneling…
In heterostructures consisting of atomically thin crystals layered on top of one another, lattice mismatch or rotation between the layers results in long-wavelength moir\'e superlattices. These moir\'e patterns can drive significant band…
We present a comprehensive optical study of thin films of tungsten disulfide (WS$_2$) with layer thicknesses ranging from mono- to octalayer and in the bulk limit. It is shown that the optical band-gap absorption of monolayer WS$_2$ is…
Thin films of Cu-W-O ternary compounds were fabricated via DC magnetron co-sputtering from Cu and W metallic targets under controlled oxygen partial pressures, followed by thermal annealing. Low-oxygen conditions favored the formation of a…
It has recently been established that the high temperature (high-Tc) superconducting state coexists with short-range charge-density-wave order and quenched disorder arising from dopants and strain. This complex, multiscale phase separation…
The structure of CO adsorbates on the Rh(110) surface is studied at full coverage using first-principles techniques. The relative energies of different adsorbate geometries are determined by means of accurate structure optimizations. In…
Oxygen is a powerful tracer element of Galactic chemical evolution. Unfortunately, only a few oxygen lines are available in the ultraviolet-infrared stellar spectra for the reliable determination of its abundance. Moreover, oxygen…
