First principles linear combinations of Gaussian type orbitals-fitting function (LCGTO-FF) electronic structure calculations are used to study thickness dependencies in the surface energies and work functions of ultra-thin (111) films of…
Two-dimensional (2D) bilayers, twisted to particular angles to display electronic flat bands, are being extensively explored for physics of strongly correlated 2D systems. However, the similar rich physics of one-dimensional (1D) strongly…
Based on density functional theory (DFT), we performed first-principle studies on the electronic structure, magnetic state and optical properties of two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal phosphorous trichalcogenide MnPX$_3$ (X=S and Se).…
The existing controversy about the room temperature structure of multiferroic Pb(Fe_1/2Nb_1/2)O_3 is settled using synchrotron powder x-ray diffraction data. Results of Rietveld refinements in the temperature range 300 to 12K reveal that…
The Lead-iron-niobate, (PbFe0.5Nb0.5O3 or PFN) was synthesized by low temperature sintering Single Step / Solid State Reaction Method. The 700 C / 2 hrs calcined powder was sintered at 1050 C / 1 hr. The sintered pellets were characterized…
The structural stability and electronic states of GaSe monolayer with trigonal-antiprismatic (AP) structure, which is a recently discovered new polymorph, were studied by first-principles calculations. The AP phase GaSe monolayer was found…
The discovery of pressure-induced superconductivity in two- and three-layer Ruddlesden-Popper nickelates has generated significant interest in these materials as a platform for unconventional superconductivity. While their ground state…
Carbon exhibits both a layered ground state structure that produces two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets and a non-layered diamond structure created under high pressure conditions. Motivated by this metastability relationship, we revisit the…
Most technologically useful materials spanning multiple length scales are polycrystalline. Polycrystalline microstructures are composed of a myriad of small crystals or grains with different lattice orientations which are separated by…
We investigate the pressure-driven structural and electronic evolution of PdSe\(_2\) using powder X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and first-principles calculations. Beyond 2.3 GPa, suppression of the Jahn-Teller distortion induces…
We calculate the form of quasiparticle interference patterns in bilayer graphene within a low-energy description, taking into account perturbatively the trigonal warping terms. We introduce four different types of impurities localized on…
The structure and electronic order at the cleaved (001) surfaces of the newly-discovered pnictide superconductors BaFe$_{2-x}$Co$_{x}$As$_{2}$ with x ranging from 0 to 0.32 are systematically investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. A…
In order to shed light on the second harmonic generation (SHG) of new 2-D systems, first principles methods are used to calculate the second order susceptibility \chi(2) for different types of layered alloys such as monolayers of transition…
The mechanical behavior of composite materials is significantly influenced by their structure and constituent materials. One emerging class of composite materials is irregular network reinforced composites (NRC's), whose reinforcing phase…
We construct a fractured structure, in the sense of Lurie, on the $\infty$-topos of condensed anima. This fractured structure allows us to better comprehend various properties of condensed anima - we use it to exhibit an explicit collection…
In this study, a method for fabrication of superconducting microstructures that are partially or completely isolated from the substrate has been proposed. Two configurations of suspended microbridges have been suggested, i. e., the first…
Twisted two-dimensional (2D) layered materials exhibit many novel and unique phenomena, such as insulation and superconductivity transition, and superlubricity. However, the effect of twisting on these phenomena remains unclear. A key…
Searching for materials with single atom-thin as well as planar structure, like graphene and borophene, is one of the most attractive themes in two dimensional materials. Herein, using density functional theory calculations, we have…
A comprehensive study of the structural properties of the heavily investigated rare-earth A2Ir2O7 series under extreme conditions is presented. The series is covered by studying iridates with A = Pr, Sm, Dy-Lu. Temperature- and…
This paper presents a combined numerical-theoretical study of the macroscopic behavior and local field distributions in a special class of two-dimensional periodic composites with viscoplastic phases. The emphasis is on strongly nonlinear…
