Off-lattice Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations of the clean diamond (111) surface, based on the effective many-body Brenner potential, yield the $(2\times1)$ Pandey reconstruction in agreement with \emph{ab-initio} calculations and…
The evolution of the diamond (111) surface as it undergoes reconstruction and subsequent graphene formation is investigated with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, low energy electron diffraction, and complementary density…
The electronic and optical properties of the cleavage InAs(110) surface are studied using a semi-empirical tight-binding method which employs an extended atomic-like basis set. We describe and discuss the electronic character of the surface…
We have carried out an ab-initio study of $\alpha$-Sn (111), with the aim of predicting and understanding its structure, reconstructions, and electronic states. We consider a variety of structural possibilities, and optimize them by moving…
We investigated the stable silicon (113) surface with a 3x2ADI reconstruction by ab-initio methods. The ground state properties have been obtained using the density-functional theory. We present the dispersion of the electronic band…
We discuss the anisotropies of the Hamiltonian and the wave-function in an $S=1/2$ distorted diamond chain. The ground-state phase diagram of this model is investigated using the degenerate perturbation theory up to the first order and the…
Strong electron-electron interaction in ultraflat edge states can be responsible for correlated phases of matter, such as magnetism, charge density wave or superconductivity. Here we consider the diamond(111) surface that, after Pandey…

A new real space quantum mechanical approach with local field effects included is applied to the calculation of the optical properties of silicon nanocrystals. Silicon ellipsoids are studied and the role of surface polarization is discussed…
Surface electronic properties of undoped hydrogen terminated diamond covered with adsorbates or in electrolyte solutions are summarized. The formation of a conductive layer at the surface of diamond is discussed based on Hall effect,…
The effects of oxygen adsorption on the reflectance anisotropy spectrum (RAS) of reconstructed Si(100):O surfaces at sub-monolayer coverage (first stages of oxidation) have been studied by an ab initio DFT-LDA scheme within a plane-wave,…
We compare energy spectra, electron localization and optical absorption of square and diamond quantum rings and analyze how sample geometry affects those features. We show that low energy levels of diamond rings form two groups delocalized…
Photochemical reactions on semiconductors are anisotropic, since they occur with different rates on surfaces of different orientation. Understanding the origin of this anisotropy is crucial to engineering more efficient photocatalysts. In…
The refractive index of a y-cut SiO$_2$ crystal surface is reconstructed from polarization dependent soft X-ray reflectometry measurements in the energy range from 45 eV to 620 eV. Due to the anisotropy of the crystal structure in the (100)…
We are able to disentagle the effects of the intraband and interband parts of the bulk dielectric function on the bare dielectric anisotropy of the surface. We show how the position, sign and amplitude of the structures observed in such…
The $S=1/2$ distorted diamond spin chain with the anisotropic ferromagnetic interaction is investigated using the numerical diagonalization and the level spectroscopy analysis. It is known that the system exhibits a plateau of the…
Unpaired electronic spins at diamond surfaces are ubiquitous and can lead to excess magnetic noise. They have been observed in several studies to date, but their exact chemical nature is still unknown. We propose a simple model to explain…
The atomic structure and physical properties of few-layered <111> oriented diamond nanocrystals (diamanes), covered by hydrogen atoms from both sides are studied using electronic band structure calculations. It was shown that energy…
Electronic and atomic structures of the clean, and As and Te covered Si(211) surface are studied using pseudopotential density functional method. The clean surface is found to have (2 X 1) and rebonded (1 X 1) reconstructions as stable…
Diamond displays outstanding chemical, physical, and tribological properties, making it attractive for numerous applications ranging from biomedicine to tribology. However, the reaction of the materials with molecules present in the air,…
