Luminescence constitutes a unique source of insight into hot carrier processes in metals, including those in plasmonic nanostructures used for sensing and energy applications. However, being weak in nature, metal luminescence remains poorly…
Ultracold atom magnetic field microscopy enables the probing of current flow patterns in planar structures with unprecedented sensitivity. In polycrystalline metal (gold) films we observe long-range correlations forming organized patterns…
A new form of gold nanobridges has been recently observed in ultrahigh-vacuum experiments, where the gold atoms rearrange to build helical nanotubes, akin in some respects to carbon nanotubes. The good reproducibility of these wires and…
Electron-phonon coupling plays a central role in the transport properties and photophysics of organic crystals. Successful models describing charge- and energy-transport in these systems routinely include these effects. Most models for…
We investigated the magnetotransport properties of mesoscopic platinum nanostructures (wires and rings) with sub-100 nm lateral dimensions at very low temperatures. Despite the strong spin-orbit interaction in platinum, oscillations of the…
We utilize steady-state and transient optical spectroscopies to examine the responses of nonthermal quasiparticles with respect to orbital modifications in normal-state iron-chalcogenide superconductors. The dynamics shows the emergence of…
Helicenes are inherently chiral polyaromatic molecules composed of all-ortho fused benzene rings possessing a spring-like structure. Here, using a combination of density functional theory and tight-binding calculations, it is demonstrated…
We calculate the effect of electron-vibration coupling on conduction through atomic gold wires, which was measured in the experiments of Agra\"it et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 216803 (2002)]. The vibrational modes, the coupling constants,…
In the field of molecular electronics, particularly in quantum transport studies, the orientation of molecules plays a crucial role. This orientation, with respect to the electrodes, can be defined through the cavity of ring-shaped…
We present ab initio calculations of transport properties of atomic-sized aluminum contacts in the presence of oxygen. The experimental situation is modeled by considering a single oxygen atom (O) or one of the molecules O2 and O3 bridging…
Atomic-sized junctions of iron, created by controlled rupture, present unusually high values of conductance compared to other metals. This result is counter-intuitive since, at the nanoscale, body-centered cubic metals are expected to…
The characteristics of molecular electronic devices are critically determined by metal-organic interfaces, which influence the arrangement of the orbital levels that participate in charge transport. Studies on self-assembled monolayers…
Twisted graphene systems have draw significant attention due to the discoveries of various correlated and topological phases. In particular, recently the alternating twisted trilayer graphene is discovered to exhibit unconventional…
The interplay between superconductivity and ferromagnetism has long been pursued as a route to unconventional Josephson effects, yet suitable material platforms remain limited. Here we report Josephson junctions based on epitaxial…
The electronic conductance of a benzene molecule connected to gold electrodes via thiol, thiolate, and amino anchoring groups is calculated using nonequilibrium Green functions in combination with the fully selfconsistent GW approximation.…
The success of all-graphene electronics is severely hindered by the challenging realization and subsequent integration of semiconducting channels and metallic contacts. Here, we comprehensively investigate the electronic transport across…
Notwithstanding the discreteness of metallic constrictions, it is shown that the finite elasticity of stable, single-atom gold constrictions allows for a continuous and reversible change in conductance, thereby enabling observation of…
We report detailed atomistic simulations combined with high-fidelity conductance calculations to probe the structural origins of conductance fluctuations in thermally evolving Au-benzene-1,4-dithiolate-Au junctions. We compare the behavior…
The electron-transport properties of adatom-graphene system are investigated for different (random, correlated, and ordered) spatial configurations of adatoms over different types of high symmetry sites with various adsorption heights. K…
Symmetry-breaking phase transitions analogous to superconductivity (SC), charge ordering (CO) etc. in metal-intercalated graphene are favorable resulting from modified electronic and phonon band structures. Strong carrier-lattice…
