The elastic property of membranes self-assembled from AB diblock and ABA triblock copolymers, as coarse-grained model of lipids and the bolalipids, are studied using the self-consistent field theory (SCFT). Specifically, solutions of the…
The assembly of nanometer-sized building blocks into complex morphologies is not only of fundamental interest but also plays a key role in material science and nanotechnology. We show that the shape of self-assembled superstructures formed…
Low-symmetry 2D materials---such as ReS$_2$ and ReSe$_2$ monolayers, black phosphorus monolayers, group-IV monochalcogenide monolayers, borophene, among others---have more complex atomistic structures than the honeycomb lattices of…
Metasurfaces have attracted extensive interests due to their ability to locally manipulate optical parameters of light and easy integration to complex optical systems. Particularly, metasurfaces can provide a novel platform for splitting…
Studying the atomic structure of intrinsic defects in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides is difficult since they damage quickly under the intense electron irradiation in transmission electron microscopy (TEM). However, this…
Recently, Bafekry et al. [J. Appl. Phys. 130, 114301(2021)] reported their density functional theory (DFT) results on the structural, phonon dispersion, elastic constants and electronic properties of a BCN monolayer. The aforementioned…
A new method for direct evaluation of both crystalline structure, bulk modulus B_0, and bulk-modulus pressure derivative B'_0 of solid materials with complex crystal structures is presented. The explicit and exact results presented here…
Sparse matter is characterized by regions with low electron density and its understanding calls for methods to accurately calculate both the van der Waals (vdW) interactions and other bonding. Here we present a first-principles density…

Moir\'e superlattices in twisted two-dimensional materials have generated tremendous excitement as a platform for achieving quantum properties on demand. However, the moir\'e pattern is highly sensitive to the interlayer atomic registry,…
The existence of a flat band near the Fermi level can be a suitable platform for the emergence of interesting phenomena in condensed matter physics. Recently, NbOCl2 monolayer has been experimentally synthesized [Nature 613 (2023) 53],…
In order to obtain a reasonably accurate and easily implemented approach to many-electron calculations, we will develop a new Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, we derive an approximation to electron density, the first term of…
A major theoretical challenge of studying twisted transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) bilayers is that the unit cell of such structures is very large and therefore difficult to address using first-principles methods. However, twisted TMD…
Two-dimensional (2D) carbon-based materials have attracted considerable interest due to their diverse structural and electronic properties, making them ideal for next-generation flat electronics. Among these materials, metallic-like porous…
Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy was found to be highly sensitive to the nominal thickness and morphology of laterally heterogeneous CoPd films in the vicinity of the metal insulator transition. We used the effect to tune the anisotropy by…
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…
Polymer adsorption on fractally rough walls of varying dimensionality is studied by renormalization group methods on hierarchical lattices. Exact results are obtained for deterministic walls. The adsorption transition is found continuous…
Magnetic 2D materials hold promise to change the miniaturization paradigm of unidirectional photonic components. However, the integration of these materials in devices hinges on the accurate determination of the optical properties down to…
Compared to van der Waals moir\'e systems, molecular assembly has emerged as an exciting alternative platform for superlattice engineering via heterointegration. The electronic properties of the self-assembled square lattice monolayer…
Iron-based layered systems are of great interest because of their ability to tune effective material parameters such as magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE). The influence of the crystallographic structure of Fe, its thickness, and the presence…
