Here, a novel deep blue emitter SBABz4 for use in organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) is investigated. The molecular design of the emitter enables thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), which we examine by temperature-dependent…

Over the past few years, there has been a growing interest in layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). Most studies so far have focused on the electronic and optoelectronic properties of…

Efficient and precise calculations of thermal transport properties and figure of merit, alongside a deep comprehension of thermal transport mechanisms, are essential for the practical utilization of advanced thermoelectric materials. In…

We demonstrate that first-principles based adiabatic continuation approach is a very powerful and efficient tool for constructing topological phase diagrams and locating non-trivial topological insulator materials. Using this technique, we…

Remote temperature control can be obtained by a long-focus thermal lens that can focus heat fluxes into a spot far away from the back surface of the lens and create a virtual thermal source/sink in the background material, around which the…

The crossover from nonadiabatic to adiabatic electron transfer has been theoretically studied under a spin-boson model (dissipative two-state system) description. We present numerically exact data for the thermal transfer rate and the…

Establishing strong electron-correlations not only shed lights on overcoming the trade-off limitations for optimizing thermoelectric materials, but can also introduce new functionalities that extend the vision of conventional thermoelectric…

We explore signatures of a topological phase transition (TPT) in the work and efficiency of a quantum heat engine, which uses a single layer topological insulator, stanene, in an external electric field as a working substance. The magnitude…

We propose a route towards engineering non-thermal states of matter, which show largely unexplored physics. The main idea relies on the adiabatic passage of a thermal ensemble under slow variations of the system Hamiltonian. If the…

GaN-based HEMTs have the potential to be widely used in high-power and high-frequency electronics while their maximum output powers are limited by high channel temperature induced by near-junction Joule-heating, which degrades device…
