We present an ab-initio calculation of the electronic affinity of the hypothetical C-46 clathrate by studying its bare and hydrogenated (100) surfaces. We show that such a system shares with the diamond phase a small electronic affinity.…

Using ab-initio calculations, we study the electronic structure of gallium-doped germanium, which was found recently to be a superconductor, with a critical temperature of 0.5 Kelvins, and a particularly low density of Cooper pairs. The…
Hexagonal SiGe is a promising material for combining electronic and photonic technologies. In this work, the energetic, structural, elastic and electronic properties of the hexagonal polytypes (2$H$, 4$H$ and 6$H$) of silicon and germanium…
The structural and electronic properties of the clathrate compounds Ba$_{8}$Al$_{x}$Si$_{46-x}$ and Sr$_{8}$Al$_{x}$Si$_{46-x}$ are studied from first principles, considering an Al content $x$ between 6 and 16. Due to the large number of…
The geometrical and electronic structure of potassium doped phenanthrene, \ce{K3C14H10}, have been studied by first-principles density functional theory. The main effect of potassium doping is to inject charge in the narrow phenanthrene…
The response to compression of the clathrate type-II structure Ge(cF136) is investigated by means of \textit{ab initio} small-cell metadynamics at different temperatures and pressures. At lower pressure $p$=2.5 GPa the metastable metallic…
New germanium-platinum compounds with the filled-skutterudite crystal structure were synthesized. The structure and composition were investigated by X-ray diffraction and microprobe analysis. Magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and…
Clathrates are lightweight, cage-like, fully-sp3 three dimensional (3D) structures that are experimentally-available for several host elements of the IV group. However, carbon clathrates are as yet hypothetical structures. Herein, the…

Classical molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the structure of densified germanium dioxide ($GeO_2$). It is found that the coordination number of germanium changes with increasing density (pressure) while pressure released…
