The linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) is a standard method for studying solids and molecules, it is also known as the tight$-$binding (TB) method. In most of the implementations only the basis set and the coupling constants are…
Moir\'e superlattices have emerged as a versatile platform for exploring a wide range of ex- otic quantum phenomena. Unlike angstrom-scale materials, the moir\'e length-scale system contains a large number of atoms, and its electronic…
First-principles electronic structure calculations have been very useful in understanding some of the properties of the new iron-based superconductors. Further explorations of the role of the individual atomic orbitals in explaining various…

Photonics, dealing with the generation, manipulation, and detection of photons in various systems, lays the foundation of many advanced technologies. A key task of photonics is to know how photons propagate in complex media such as periodic…
\textit{Ab initio} pseudo-atomic orbital (PAO) Hamiltonians express the electronic structure of a solid in a compact, localized basis that spans the same Hilbert space as a conventional Slater--Koster tight-binding model, thereby providing…
Empirical tight binding(ETB) methods are widely used in atomistic device simulations. Traditional ways of generating the ETB parameters rely on direct fitting to bulk experiments or theoretical electronic bands. However, ETB calculations…

Multiple gaps in the tight-binding band of a pentagonal lattice are found. Unlike the Cairo pentagonal lattice this lattice is made of irregular pentagons with arms of different lengths. The tight-binding Hamiltonian is exactly solved to…
The Empirical Tight Binding(ETB) method is widely used in atomistic device simulations. The reliability of such simulations depends very strongly on the choice of basis sets and the ETB parameters. The traditional way of obtaining the ETB…
