Surface energies and surface elasticity largely affect the mechanical response of nanostructures as well as the physical phenomenon associated with surfaces such as evaporation and adsorption. Studying surface energies at finite…
Artificial magnetic conductors (AMCs) mimic the idealized boundary condition of a perfect magnetic conductor (PMC), which reflects electromagnetic waves with a preserved electric field and inverted magnetic field. Despite their usefulness,…
Non-adiabatic dynamics simulations have become a standard approach to explore photochemical reactions. Such simulations require underlying potential energy surfaces and couplings between them, calculated at a chosen level of theory, yet…
Reliable trajectory-based nonadiabatic quantum dynamics methods at the atomic level are critical for understanding many important processes in real systems. The paper reports latest progress of nonadiabatic field (NaF), a conceptually novel…
The wavefunctions of a disordered two-dimensional electron gas at the quantum-critical Anderson transition are predicted to exhibit multifractal scaling in their real space amplitude. We experimentally investigate the appearance of these…
We investigate the effect of quenched surface charge disorder on electrostatic interactions between two charged surfaces in the presence of dielectric inhomogeneities and added salt. We show that in the linear weak-coupling regime (i.e., by…
We study secondary electron emission from metallic surfaces due to Auger de-excitation of diatomic metastable molecules. Our approach is based on an effective model for the two active electrons involved in the process -- a molecular…
Motivated by experiments with current biased superconducting atomic point contacts the general problem of nonadiabatic transitions between adiabatic surfaces in presence of strong dissipation is studied. For a single channel device the…

Semilocal density functional theory is the most used computational method for electronic structure calculations in theoretical solid-state physics and quantum chemistry of large systems, providing good accuracy with a very attractive…
The spectacular performance of halide perovskites in optoelectronic devices is rooted in their tolerance to defects. Previous studies showed that defects in these materials generate shallow electronic states. However, how these shallow…
Dispersion relations for the spectra of surface electron states on a dynamically deformed adsorbed surface of a monocrystal with the Zinc blende structure are received. It is established that the dependences of the band gap width and of the…
We show that when a molecular junction is under an external bias, its properties can not be uniquely determined by the total electron density in the same manner as the density functional theory (DFT) for ground state (GS) properties. In…
We present a first principles strategy for developing state-specific density functional approximations for excited states. We first clarify why approaches based on conventional ground state approximations miss density-driven correlations,…
Low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy of magnetic and non-magnetic metal atoms on Ag(111) and on Cu(111) surfaces reveals the existence of a common electronic resonance at an energy below the binding energies of the surface…
Single-electron transport driven by surface acoustic waves (SAW) through a narrow constriction, formed in two-dimensional electron gas, is studied theoretically. Due to long-range Coulomb interaction, the tunneling coupling between the…
Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) combined with electrical modes provides a powerful contactless approach to characterize material electrical properties at the nanoscale. However, conventional electrostatic models often overlook dynamic charge…
