The photo-induced desorption and oxidation of CO on Ru(0001) is simulated using ab initio molecular dynamics with electronic friction that accounts for the non-equilibrated excited electrons and phonons. Different (O,CO) coverages are…
Extreme lattice-mismatched III-V nitrides, such as Bi-incorporated GaN, have been realized experimentally thanks to recent advances in epitaxial growth and characterization techniques. However, theoretical insights into defect-related…
We investigate the optical properties of the normal state of the infinite-layer La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$NiO$_2$ using DFT+DMFT. We find a correlated metal which exhibits substantial transfer of spectral weight to high energies relative to the…
We study the distribution of electronic spectral weight in a doped antiferromagnet with various types of charge order and compare to angle resolved photoemission experiments on lightly doped La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ (LSCO) and electron doped…
The charge dynamics of silicon-vacancy (SiV) centers have been investigated for the first time in high-pressure high-temperature nanodiamonds (NDs) with varying concentrations of substitutional nitrogen (Ns). We demonstrate a controlled…
Chemical interaction and changes in local electronic structure of Cr, Fe, Co, Ni and Cu transition metals (TMs) upon formation of an $Al_{8}Co_{17}Cr_{17}Cu_{8}Fe_{17}Ni_{33}$ compositionally complex alloy (CCA) have been studied by X-ray…
Point defect engineering is widely used to tailor the electronic and transport properties of complex oxides, yet its influence on dislocation plasticity remains poorly understood. Here, we establish how donor (Nb) doping modifies…
The hole doped Si(111)(2root3x2root3)R30(degrees)-Sn interface exhibits a symmetry-breaking insulator-insulator transition below 100 K that appears to be triggered by electron tunneling into the empty surface-state bands. No such transition…
We investigated a suspended bilayer graphene where the bottom (top) layer is doped by boron (nitrogen) substitutional atoms by using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. We found that at high dopant concentration (one B-N pair…
The discovery of infinite-layer nickelate superconductors has spurred enormous interest. While the Ni$^{1+}$ cations possess nominally the same 3$d^9$ configuration as Cu$^{2+}$ in cuprates, the electronic structure variances remain…
In this work, electronic structure of several doped TiO$_2$ anatase systems is computed using DFT+$U$. Effective masses of charge carriers are also computed to quantify how the dopant atoms perturb the bands of the host anatase material.…
This study examines the application of transition metal-doped SrTiO3 in photovoltaic technologies, such as photocatalysis. The core objective is to evaluate how different dopants influence the structural and electronic characteristics of…
Using LDA+$U$, we investigate Li-doped rutile SnO$_2$(001) surface. The surface defect formation energy shows that it is easier for Li to be doped at surface Sn site than bulk Sn site in SnO$_2$. Li at surface and sub-surface Sn sites has a…
Doping of the ultrawide band gap semicodnctor LiGaO$_2$ ($E_g=5.6$ eV) with N$_2$, NO and O$_2$ molecules placed in either Ga or Li-vacancies is studied using first-principles calculations. These molecular dopants are considered as…
We report the synthesizing and characterization of the hole doped Ni-based superconductor ($La_{1-x}Sr_{x})NiAsO$. By substituting La with Sr, the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ is increased from 2.4 K of the parent phase…
In this work we have employed density-functional theory with hybrid functionals to investigate the atomic and electronic structure of bare and hydrogenated Mn doped ZnO nanowires with small diameter. We determine changes in magnetic and…
Recent work on atomic-precision dopant incorporation technologies has led to the creation of both boron and aluminum $\delta$-doped layers in silicon with densities above the solid solubility limit. We use density functional theory to…
Doping stoichiometric SiNx layers (x=[N]/[Si]=1.33) with Si atoms by ultra-low energy ion implantation (ULE-II) and annealing them at different temperatures can significantly impact the switching characteristics. Electrical characterization…
Copper and Nickel impurities have been doped into the iron pnictide superconductor Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2. Resistivity measurements reveal that Cu and Ni impurities suppress superconducting transition temperature T_c with rates of \Delta T_c/Cu-1%…
Motivated by recent photoemission measurements on the La$_{0.8}$Sr$_{0.2}$NiO$_2$, we carry out a systematic study of the infinite-layer nickelate using both dynamical mean-field theory and density matrix embedding theory. The renormalized…
