Although the BCS theory of superconductivity is a well established theory, we have shown that the phenomenology predicted by this model is much richer than previously believed. By releasing the constraint that the attraction band is…

We provide a phenomenological formula which describes the low-frequency optical absorption of charge carriers in disordered systems with localization. This allows to extract, from experimental data on the optical conductivity, the relevant…

Our goal is to electronically regulate electrochemical cells. For this, we introduced a third element, called the gate, which was placed between the cathode and the anode electrodes of the cell. Voltage applied to this element controlled…

Charge transfer plays a crucial role in many processes of interest in physics, chemistry, and bio-chemistry. In many applications the size of the systems involved calls for time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) to be used in…

The amorphous structure of nanoporous carbon electrodes in supercapacitors complicates the establishment of clear links between electrode geometry and capacitance. In this work, we examine how specific structural features govern charge…

We define a quantum charger as an interacting quantum system that transfers energy between two drives. The key figure of merit characterizing a charger is its charging power. Remarkably, the presence of long-range interactions within the…

Intramolecular electron transfer capability of all metal aromatic and anti-aromatic aluminum cluster compounds is studied in terms of density functional theory based global and local reactivity descriptors. This study will provide important…

The electron-conduction properties of fullerene chains are examined by first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory. The conductivity of the C$_{60}$ dimer is low owing to the constraint of the junction of the…

We present here a short and subjective review of methods for calculating charge transfer couplings. Although we mostly focus on Density Functional Theory, we discuss a small subset of semiempirical methods as well as the…

Solid-state spin defects are attractive candidates for developing quantum sensors and simulators. The spin and charge degrees of freedom in large defect ensembles are a promising platform to explore complex many-body dynamics and the…

We investigate the distribution of the electron density and the potential in a quantum wire coupled to reservoirs, treating this structure as a unified quantum system and taking into account the Coulomb interaction of electrons. The…

Capacitors are ubiquitous in electronic and electrical devices. In this article, we study -- both theoretically and experimentally -- the charging and discharging of capacitors using active control of a voltage source. The energy of these…

Charge-coupled device (CCD), along with the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS), is one of the major imaging technologies. Traditional CCDs rely on the charge transfer between potential wells, which gives them advantages of…

On a microscopic scale, resistivity during electric conduction is caused by collisions of the free conduction electrons with the obstructing atoms or molecules of the conductor material, resulting in heat production. Based on this…

Nanoporous supercapacitors are an important player in the field of energy storage that fill the gap between dielectric capacitors and batteries. The key challenge in the development of supercapacitors is the perceived trade-off between…

Recently, some discussions arose as to the definition of charge and the value of the density of charge in stationary-current-carrying conductors. We stress that the problem of charge definition comes from a misunderstanding of the usual…

Liquid NaSn alloys in five different compositions (20, 40, 50, 57 and 80% sodium) are studied using density functional calculations combined with molecular dynamics(Car-Parrinello method). The frequency-dependent electric conductivities for…

We fabricate nanolayer alumina capacitor and apply high electric fields, close to 1 GV/m, to inject charges in the dielectric. Asymmetric charge distributions have been achieved due to the selectivity of the quantum tunneling process.…

Using density functional theory the atomic and electronic structure of sodium are predicted to depart substantially from those expected of simple metals for $r_s <$ 2.48 ($p > 130$ GPa). Newly-predicted phases include those with low…

Molecular dynamics simulations at a constant electric potential are an essential tool to study electrochemical processes, providing microscopic information on the structural, thermodynamic, and dynamical properties. Despite the numerous…
