Using a combination of th local-density approximtion (LDA) and dynamicla mean-field theory (DMFT) calculations, we explore the correlated electronic structure of a member of the layered Iron oxychalcogenide Na_{2}Fe_{2}OSe_{2}. We find that…

Superconducting transition temperature (Tc) reported in SnAs-based layered compound NaSn$_2$As$_2$ varies from 1.2 to 1.6 K, implying that its superconductivity is critically sensitive to non-stoichiometry. Here, we demonstrate that…

We use inelastic neutron scattering to study the evolution of the generalized phonon density of states (GDOS) of the $n$-type high-$T_c$ superconductor Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4+\delta}$ (NCCO), from the half-filled Mott-insulator ($x=0$) to…

Transition metal nitrides are a fascinating class of hard coating material that provide an excellent platform for investigating superconductivity and fundamental electron phonon interactions. In this work the structural morphological and…

We present a detailed room temperature x-ray powder diffraction study on La2-xSrxNiO4+d with 0<=x<=0.12 and 0<=d<=0.13. For x=0.02, 0.04 and 0.06 the oxygen content phase diagrams of the Sr doped samples show a similar sequence of pure…

Doping is an effective way to modify the electronic property of two-dimensional (2D) materials and endow them with new functionalities. However, wide-range control of the substitutional doping concentration with large scale uniformity…

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are carried out to study the structure and electronic structure of amorphous zinc oxide (a-ZnO). The models were prepared by the "melt-quench" method. The models are chemically ordered with some…
