Experimental observations of large exciton binding energies and non-hydrogenic Rydberg series in 2D semiconducting TMDs, along with deviations in plasmon dispersion in 2D metallic TMDs, suggest the presence of a nonconventional screening of…
Using the collective variables theory, we study the effect of competition between Coulomb and dispersion forces on the gas-liquid phase behaviour of a model ionic fluid, i.e. a charge-asymmetric primitive model with additional short-range…
We investigate the electronic states of the CoO_2 plane in the layered cobalt oxides Na_{0.5}CoO_{2} using the realistic 11 band d-p model on a two-dimensional triangular lattice. Effects of the Coulomb interaction on a Co site: the intra-…
First principles constrained density functional theory scheme in Wannier functions formalism has been used to calculate Coulomb repulsion U and Hund's exchange J parameters for iron 3d electrons in LaFeAsO. Results strongly depend on the…
Layered LiMO2 (M = Ni, Co, Mn, and Al mixture) cathode materials used for Li-ion batteries are reputed to be highly reactive through their surface, where the chemistry changes rapidly when exposed to ambient air. However, conventional…
The role of electronic correlation effects for a realistic description of the electronic properties of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures as covered by the on-site Coulomb repulsion within the GGA+U approach is investigated. Performing a…
The predictive accuracy of popular extensions to density-functional theory (DFT) such as DFT+U and DFT plus dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) hinges on using realistic values for the screened Coulomb interaction U. Here, we present a…
Sodium-ion batteries have gained much interest over the past years and especially layered oxides are highly considered as cathodes for the next generation of batteries. However, there are still significant challenges to overcome in these…
We investigate the real-space profile of effective Coulomb interactions in correlated kagome materials. By particularizing to KV$_3$Sb$_5$, Co$_3$Sn$_2$S$_2$, FeSn, and Ni$_3$In, we analyze representative cases that exhibit a large span of…
Accurate first-principles predictions of the structural, electronic, magnetic, and electrochemical properties of cathode materials can be key in the design of novel efficient Li-ion batteries. Spinel-type cathode materials Li$_x$Mn$_2$O$_4$…
Transition metal oxides have been one of the central objects in the studies of electron correlation effects because of their rich variety of physical properties mainly depending on the transition metal element. On the other hand, exploiting…
We report a first-principles projector augmented wave (PAW) study on Na$_{0.5}$CoO$_2$. With the sodium ion ordered insulating phase being identified in experiments, pure density functional calculations fail to predict an insulating ground…
The electronic structure of Nickel dichalcogenides, NiS$_2$ and NiSe$_2$, in monolayer form, is studied employing first-principles methods. We assess the importance of band ordering, covalency and Coulomb interactions in the ground state of…
Transport properties of high-energy-density plasmas are influenced by the ion collision rate. Traditionally, this rate involves the Coulomb logarithm, $\ln\Lambda$. Typical values of $\ln\Lambda$ are $\approx 10~\mbox{to}~20$ in kinetic…
Correlated materials are extremely sensitive to external stimuli, such as temperature or pressure. Describing the electronic properties of such systems often requires applying many-body techniques to effective low energy problems in the…
We provide a simulation algorithm that properly addresses light matter interaction between non-relativistic first-quantized charged particles and quantum electromagnetic fields. Unlike previous work, our Hamiltonian does not include an…
Interfaces are ubiquitous in Li-ion battery electrodes, occurring across compositional gradients, regions of multiphase intergrowths, and between electrodes and solid electrolyte interphases or protective coatings. However, the impact of…
Mutual Coulomb interactions between electrons lead to a plethora of interesting physical and chemical effects, especially if those interactions involve many fluctuating electrons over large spatial scales. Here, we identify and study in…
Polarizable particle systems, including charged colloids, polarizable ions, biomolecular assemblies, and soft nanomaterials, can exhibit contact electrostatic interactions that depart strongly from Coulomb behavior when dielectric mismatch…
Coulomb drag experiments in which the inter-layer resistivity is measured are important as they provide information on the Coulomb interactions in bilayer systems. When the layer densities are low correlation effects become significant to…
