Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, we investigate a family of stable two-dimensional crystals with chemical formula $A_2B_2$, where $A$ and $B$ belong to groups IV and V, respectively ($A$ = C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb;…
We report the structure of transient fluctuations in the liquid phase of a two-dimensional system that exhibits several ordered phases with different symmetries. The density-temperature phase diagram of the system studied, composed of…
A hexagonal structure of solid molecular hydrogen with $P6_122$ symmetry is calculated to be more stable below about 200 GPa than the monoclinic $C2/c$ structure identified previously as the best candidate for phase III. We find that the…
Properties of the $\omega$ structure are investigated for 27 transition elements from the viewpoints of thermodynamical and mechanical stability based on first-principles calculations. The thermodynamical stability of the $\omega$ structure…
We propose a structural model that treats in a unified fashion both the atomic motions and electronic excitations in quenched melts of pnictide and chalcogenide semiconductors. In Part I (submitted to J. Chem. Phys.), we argued these…
This study systematically investigates the electronic structure and bonding properties of two-dimensional bilayer transition metal chalcogenides MX2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se, Te) using density functional theory calculations. By analyzing band…
The level of electronic correlation has been one of the key questions in understanding the nature of superconductivity. Among the iron-based superconductors, the iron chalcogenide family exhibits the strongest electron correlations. To…
Motivated by contradicting reports in the literature, we have investigated the structural stability of tungsten nanoparticles using density functional theory calculations. The comparison of BCC, FCC, A15, disordered, and icosahedral…
The high pressure structural and electronic evolution of bulk MoS$_2$, an important transition metal layered dichalchogenide, is currently under active investigation. Recent theoretical and experimental work predicted and verified a 2H$_c…
A simple yet paradigmatic model for the interplay of strong electronic correlations and geometric frustration is the triangular lattice Hubbard model. Recently it was proposed that moir\'e structures of transition metal dichalcogenides can…
We present exemplary results of extensive studies of mechanical, electronic and transport properties of covalent functionalization of graphene monolayers (GML) with -NH2. We report new results of ab initio studies of covalent…
We have calculated the ground state electronic structure of He under pressure from 0 to 1500 GPa using both all-electron full-potential and pseudopotential methods based on the density functional theory (DFT). We find that throughout this…
A large panel of old and recently proposed exchange-correlation functionals belonging to rungs 1 to 4 of Jacob's ladder of density functional theory are tested (with and without a dispersion correction term) for the calculation of the…
The pressure-induced transformation of diatomic nitrogen into non-molecular polymeric phases may produce potentially useful high-energy-density materials. We combine first-principles calculations with structure searching to predict a new…
We investigate the stability of possible order parameter configurations in clean layered heterostructures of the $SFS...FS$ type, where $S$ is a superconductor and $F$ a ferromagnet. We find that for most reasonable values of the geometric…
The crystal structure of the iron oxide gamma-Fe2O3 is usually reported in either the cubic system (space group P4332) with partial Fe vacancy disorder or in the tetragonal system (space group P41212) with full site ordering and c/a\approx…
Controlling and understanding electron correlations in quantum matter is one of the most challenging tasks in materials engineering. In the past years a plethora of new puzzling correlated states have been found by carefully stacking and…
Lead and tin chalcogenides have been studied widely due to their promising thermoelectric (TE) properties. Further enhancement in their TE efficiency has been reported upon the reduction of the dimension, which is an important feature in…
We investigate how field-effect doping affects the structural properties, the electronic structure and the Hall coefficient of few-layers transition metal dichalcogenides by using density-functional theory. We consider mono-, bi-, and…
Gallium selenide (GaSe) is one of layered group-III metal monochalcogenides, which has an indirect bandgap in monolayer and direct bandgap in bulk unlike other conventional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as MoX2 and WX2 (X=S…
