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…
Half-Heusler compounds with 18 valence electrons are semi-conducting. It will be shown that doping with electrons results in half-metallic ferromagnets, similar to the case of diluted semi-conductors. CoTiSb is known to be a semi-conducting…
First-principles calculations using the plane-wave pseudopotential method within the generalized gradient approximation method were performed to study the pressure dependence of the structural, elastic, electronic and optical properties for…
Ultrashort non-resonant electromagnetic pulses applied to effective one-electron systems may operate on the electronic state as a position or momentum translation operator. As derived here, extension to many-body correlated systems exposes…
In this work, we provide important insights into the evolution of half-metallicity in quaternary Heusler alloys. Employing {\it ab initio} electronic structure methods we study 18 quaternary Heusler compounds having the chemical formula…
Nanowires with a GaSb core and an InAs shell (and the inverted structure) are interesting for studies of electron-hole hybridization and interaction effects due to the bulk broken band-gap alignment at the material interface. We have used…
We report ab initio calculations of the electronic band structure and the phonon dispersion relations of the zincblende-type mercury chalcogenides (beta-HgS, HgSe, and HgTe). The latter have been used to evaluate the temperature dependence…
We present an investigation on electronic structure of 1T-TiTe2 material via high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), utilizing tunable photon energy excitations. The typical semimetal-like electronic structure is…
The intermetallic FeSi exhibits an unusual temperature dependence in its electronic and magnetic degrees of freedom, epitomized by the crossover from a low temperature non-magnetic semiconductor to a high temperature paramagnetic metal with…
We report $^{93}$Nb and $^{121}$Sb NMR and $^{57}$Fe M\"{o}ssbauer studies combined with DFT calculations of Nb$_{1-x}$Ti$_x$FeSb ($0\leqslant x \leqslant0.3$), one of the most promising thermoelectric systems for applications above 1000 K.…

Iron-chalcogenide superconductors display rich phenomena caused by orbital-dependent band shifts and electronic correlations. Additionally, they are potential candidates for topological superconductivity due to the band inversion between…
A diagrammatic method is applied to study the effects of commensurability in two-dimensional disordered crystalline metals by using the particle-hole symmetry with respect to the nesting vector P_0={\pm{\pi}/a, {\pi}/a} for a half-filled…
