Based on density functional calculations, the relationship between magnetism or superconductivity and electronic states around Fermi level were derived, and the location of the Fermi level in nonmagnetic "form" of Laves-phase compounds is…
While non-nitride III-V semiconductors typically have a zincblende structure, they may also form wurtzite crystals under pressure or when grown as nanowhiskers. This makes electronic structure calculation difficult since the band structures…
Hybrid superconductor-semiconductor devices are currently one of the most promising platforms for realizing Majorana zero modes. Their topological properties are controlled by the band alignment of the two materials, as well as the…
Energy band structures of metal-deficient hexagonal diborides M$_{0.75}$B$_2$ (M = Nb, Zr and Y) were calculated using the full-potential LMTO method. The metal vacancies change the density of states near the Fermi level and this effect is…
