The authors present a quantity termed charge-spin susceptibility, which measures the charge response to spin degrees of freedom in strongly correlated materials. This quantity is simple to evaluate using both standard density functional…

A nonperturbative interaction of an electronic system with a laser field can substantially modify its physical properties. In particular, in two-dimensional (2D) materials with a lack of inversion symmetry, the achievement of a regime of…

We report synthesis, structure/micro-structure, resistivity under magnetic field [R(T)H], Raman spectra, thermoelectric power S(T), thermal conductivity K(T), and magnetization of ambient pressure argon annealed polycrystalline bulk samples…

Using density functional theory (DFT), the structural, mechanical, electronic, thermal, and optical properties of Hf2AB (A = Pb, Bi) borides were studied, considering the pressure effect up to 50 GPa. The lattice constants were found to be…

The study of high pressure (2 GPa) synthesized MgB2-based materials allows us to conclude that higher borides (with near MgB12 stoichiometry) and oxygen-enriched Mg-B-O inclusions can be pinning centers in nanostructural magnesium diboride…

We derive, from an empirical interaction potential, an analytic formula for the elastic bending modulus of single-layer MoS2 (SLMoS2). By using this approach, we do not need to define or estimate a thickness value for SLMoS2, which is…

Effect of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on Dirac electrons in the organic conductor $\alpha$-(BETS)$_2$I$_3$ [BETS = bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene] has been examined by calculating electric conductivity and spin magnetic…

Single crystals of superconducting OsB_2 [T_c = 2.10(5) K] have been grown using a Cu-B eutectic flux. We confirm that OsB_2 crystallizes in the reported orthorhombic structure (space group Pmmn) at room temperature. Both the normal and…

We studied the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations in high-mobility Si-MOS samples over a wide range of carrier densities $n\simeq (1-50) \times 10^{11}$cm$^{-2}$, which includes the vicinity of the apparent metal-insulator transition in…

Group theory and density functional theory methods are combined to obtain compact and accurate $k\cdot p$ Hamiltonians that describe the bandstructures around the $K$ and $\Gamma$ points for the 2D material hexagonal boron arsenide (h-BAs)…

The broken inversion symmetry at the surface of a metallic film (or, more generally, at the interface between a metallic film and a different metallic or insulating material) greatly amplifies the influence of the spin-orbit interaction on…

High density data storage and spin-logic devices require highly efficient all-electric control of spin moments. So far, charge-to-spin conversion through the spin Hall effect (SHE) highly limits to d-orbital materials associated with strong…

The optical conductivity of MgB$_2$ has been determined on a dense polycrystalline sample in the spectral range 6 meV - 4.6 eV using a combination of ellipsometric and normal incidence reflectivity measurements. $\sigma_{1}(\omega)$…

We have used density functional theory to study the recently predicted MAX phase borides Hf2AB (A = Pb, Bi) in where the mechanical, electronic, thermal, and optical properties have been investigated for the first time. A good agreement of…

X-ray diffraction multipole refinements of single-crystalline Mg$_x$Al$_{1-x}$B$_2$ and polarization-dependent near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure at the B 1$s$ edge reveal a strongly anisotropic electronic structure. Comparing the…

Appropriate candidates of the metallic sheet used for the electrodes of diamond semiconductor are investigated using computational approaches based on density functional theory (DFT). For twenty kinds of metallic elements $x$, we modeled a…

Ca$_{3}$Ru$_{2}$O$_{7}$ is a fascinating material that displays physical properties governed by spin-orbit interactions and structural distortions, showing a wide range of remarkable electronic phenomena. Here, we present a…

The electronic properties of single-layer antimony are studied by a combination of first-principles and tight-binding methods. The band structure obtained from relativistic density functional theory is used to derive an analytic…

High-density bulk materials of a newly discovered 40K intermetallic MgB2 superconductor were prepared by high pressure sintering. Superconducting transition with the onset temperature of 39K was confirmed by both magnetic and resistive…

We consider the model of composite dark matter assuming stable particles of charge $-2$ bound with primordial helium nuclei by Coulomb force in $O$He atoms. We study capture of such dark atoms in matter and propose a possibility of…
