Two-dimensional (2D) materials have emerged as promising platforms for quantum technologies and optoelectronics, with defects playing a crucial role in their properties. We present a comprehensive density functional theory study of silicon…

Using evolutionary algorithm for crystal structure prediction, we present a new stable two-dimensional (2D) carbon allotrope composed of polymerized as-indacenes (PAI) in a zigzag pattern, namely PAI-graphene whose energy is lower than most…

We study a new hypothetical form of solid carbon \csc, with a unit cell which is composed of the \cs \ fullerene cluster and an additional single carbon atom arranged in the zincblende structure. Using {\it ab initio} calculations, we show…

Using ab initio Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, we investigate the electronic structure, phase stability, and magnetic properties of equiatomic binary alloys between Al and 3d magnetic transition elements (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and…

Two-dimensional silicon carbide stands out among 2D materials, primarily due to its notable band gap, unlike its carbon-based counterparts. However, the binary nature and non-layered structure of bulk SiC present challenges in fabricating…

The purpose of this work was to calculate the electronic band structure of Cd$_{1-x}$Fe$_x$Se. Ab-initio, calculations are performed in the Atomistix Toolkit program within the Density Functional Theory and Local Spin Density Approximation…

We use ab initio density functional calculations to study the formation and structural as well as thermal stability of cellular foam-like carbon nanostructures. These systems with a mixed $sp^2/sp^3$ bonding character may be viewed as…

A class of highly symmetric silicon carbide fullerene-like cage nanoclusters with carbon atoms inside the Si_20 cage and with high stability are presented. The Generalized Gradient Approximation of Density Functional Theory (GGA-DFT) is…

A tetragonal phase is predicted for Hf2O3 and Zr2O3 using density functional theory. Starting from atomic and unit cell relaxations of substoichiometric monoclinic HfO2 and ZrO2, such tetragonal structures are only reached at zero…

A new set of lattice-models based on the hexagonal $\sqrt{N}\times\sqrt{N}$ super-cells of the well-known honeycomb lattice with single-hole defect (HL-D-1/2N) are proposed to realize the nontrivial isolated flat-bands. Through performing…

We find that three nonstoichiometric cubic binary chromium chalcogenides, namely Cr3S4, Cr3Se4, and Cr3Te4, are stable half-metallic ferromagnets with wide half-metallic gaps on the basis of systematic state-of-the-arts first-principles…

We address the problem of predicting the zero-temperature dynamical stability (DS) of a periodic crystal without computing its full phonon band structure. Here we report the evidence that DS can be inferred with good reliability from the…

We have found that Ce3Pd20As6 crystallizes into a cubic C6Cr23-type structure. Combination of electron probe microanalysis of the chemical composition and Rietveld analysis of the powder X-ray diffraction pattern has revealed an…

A multitude of observed boron-based materials have outstanding superconducting, mechanical, and refractory properties. Yet, the structure, the composition, and the very existence of some reported metal boride (M-B) compounds have been a…
