We have investigated the mechanism of stabilizing the simple-cubic (SC) structure in polonium (alpha- Po), based on the phonon dispersion calculations using the first-principles all-electron band method. We have demonstrated that the stable…

Using first-principles density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, we investigate the 4/3-monolayer structure of Pb on the Si(111) or Ge(111) surface within the two competing structural models termed the H$_3$ and T$_4$ structures. We…

Polonium is known as the only simple metal that has the simple cubic (SC) lattice in three dimension. There is a debate about whether the stabilized SC structure is attributed to the scalar relativistic effect or the spin-orbit coupling…

It was recently demonstrated that two-dimensional Townes solitons (TSs) in two-component systems with cubic self-focusing, which are normally made unstable by the critical collapse, can be stabilized by linear spin-orbit coupling (SOC), in…

The effect of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on the electronic properties of monolayer (ML) PtSe$_2$ is dictated by the presence of the crystal inversion symmetry to exhibit spin polarized band without characteristic of spin splitting. Through…

Spin-polarization is known to lead to important {\it magnetic} and {\it optical} effects in open-shell atoms and elemental solids, but has rarely been implicated in controlling {\it structural} selectivity in compounds and alloys. Here we…

Compressed S and Se are studied by x-ray diffraction with synchrotron radiation up to 160 GPa. The S-IV phase is shown to have a body-centered monoclinic structure and to be stable between 83 and 150 GPa on pressure increase, where it…

A novel stable crystallographic structure is discovered in a variety of ABO3, ABF3 and A2O3 compounds (including materials of geological relevance, prototypes of multiferroics, exhibiting strong spin-orbit effects, etc...), via the use of…

Spherical confinement can act either stabilizing or destabilizing on the collapsed state of a semi-flexible polymer. General free-energy arguments suggest that the order of the unconstrained collapse transition is the distinguishing factor:…

Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) plays an important role in determining the structural and electronic properties of recently proposed two-dimensional planar pentagonal materials. In this work, density functional theory calculations are employed to…

An object in the bounded derived category D^b(Coh(X)) of coherent sheaves on a complex projective K3 surface X is spherical if it is rigid and simple. Although spherical objects form only a discrete set in the moduli stack of complexes,…

Polonium is the only element to crystallise into a simple cubic structure at ambient conditions. Moreover, at high temperatures it undergoes a structural phase transition into a less symmetric trigonal configuration. It has long been…

We review recent progress in understanding the different spatial broken symmetries that occur in the normal states of the family of charge-transfer solids (CTS) that exhibit superconductivity (SC), and discuss how this knowledge gives…

Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, we investigate a family of stable two-dimensional crystals with chemical formula $A_2B_2$, where $A$ and $B$ belong to groups IV and V, respectively ($A$ = C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb;…

Cation disorder is an important design criterion for technologically relevant transition-metal (TM) oxides, such as radiation-tolerant ceramics and Li-ion battery electrodes. In this letter, we use a combination of first-principles…

We consider Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) subject to the action of spin-orbit-coupling (SOC) periodically modulated in the radial direction. In contrast to the commonly known principle that periodic potentials do not create bound states,…

The kinetics of phase transition processes often governs the resulting material microstruc-ture. Using optical microscopy, we here investigate the formation and stabilization of a po-rous crystalline microstructure forming in low-salt…

In condensed-matter physics spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is a fundamental physical interaction, which describes how the electrons' spin couples to their orbital motion. It is the source of a vast variety of fascinating phenomena in solids such…

The ground-state phases of a spin-orbit (SO) coupled atomic spin-2 Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) are studied. Interesting density patterns spontaneously formed are widespread due to the competition between SO coupling and spin-dependent…

Recently, Bi-based compounds have attracted attentions because of the strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC). In this work, we figured out the role of SOC in ABi$_{3}$ (A=Sr and Ba) by theoretical investigation of the band structures, phonon…
