We consider (AlAs)_n/(GaAs)_n superlattices with random thickness fluctuations Delta-n around the nominal period n. Using three-dimensional pseudopotential plane-wave band theory, we show that (i) any amount Delta-n/n of thickness…
The structural and electronic properties in common anion (GaSb)_1/(InSb)_1 and common cation (InAs)_1/(InSb)_1 [111] ordered superlattices have been determined using the local density total energy full potential linearized augmented plane…
In nearly free electron theory the imposition of a periodic electrostatic potential on free electrons creates the bandstructure of a material, determined by the crystal lattice spacing and geometry. Imposing an artificially designed…
We study disordered quantum-well-based semiconductor superlattices where the disorder is intentional and short-range correlated. Such systems consist of quantum-wells of two different thicknesses randomly distributed along the growth…
We study the electronic properties of GaAs-AlGaAs superlattices with intentional correlated disorder by means of photoluminescence and vertical dc resistance. The results are compared to those obtained in ordered and uncorrelated disordered…
We investigate the electronic band structure and transport properties of periodically alternating mono- and bi-layer graphene superlattices (MBLG SLs). In such MBLG SLs, there exists a zero-averaged wave vector (zero-$\overline{k}$) gap…
Superlattice engineering in van der Waals heterostructures (e.\,g.\ by moir\'e engineering) provides a powerful platform for designing electronic bands and realising correlated and topological quantum phenomena. Here, we pioneer a scheme to…
We report the graded electronic band gap along the axis of individual heterostructured WZ-ZB InAs/InSb0.12As0.88 nanowires. Resonance Raman imaging has been exploited to map the axial variation in the second excitation gap energy (E1) at…
It is desirable to realize topological phases in artificial structures by engineering electronic band structures. In this paper, we investigate $(PbTe)_m(SnTe)_{2n-m}$ superlattices along [001] direction and find a robust weak topological…
A mismatch of atomic registries between single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) in a two dimensional van der Waals heterostructure produces a moir\'e superlattice with a periodic potential, which can be fine-tuned by…
Taking advantage of the large electron escape depth of soft x-ray angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy we report electronic structure measurements of (111)-oriented [LaNiO3/LaMnO3] superlattices and LaNiO3 epitaxial films. For thin…
The linear combination of bulk bands method recently introduced by Wang, Franceschetti and Zunger [Phys. Rev. Lett.78, 2819 (1997)] is applied to a calculation of energy bands and optical constants of (GaAs)$_n$/(AlAs)$_n$ and…
We investigate the electronic properties of two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) subjected to a periodic patterned gate. By incorporating the superlattice (SL) potential induced by patterning into the Schrodinger equation, we develop a…
The stability and electronic structure of a single monatomic Al wire has been studied using the ab initio pseudopotential method. The Al wire undergoes two structural rearrangements under compression, i.e., zigzag configurations at angles…
We study the electronic structure of a new type of Fibonacci superlattice based on Si $\delta$-doped GaAs. Assuming that $\delta$-doped layers are equally spaced, quasiperiodicity is introduced by selecting two different donor…
We study three-leg-ladder optical lattices loaded with repulsive atomic Bose-Einstein condensates and subjected to artificial gauge fields. By employing the plane-wave analysis and variational approach, we analyze the band-gap structure of…
Due to the wide range of possible applications, atomically thin two-dimensional heterostructures have attracted much attention. In this work, using first-principles calculations, we investigated the structural and electronic properties of…
The structural and electronic properties of new structural cubic (GaN)$_1$/(ZnO)$_1$ superlattice have been investigated using two different theoretical techniques: the full potential-linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method and the…
Noise-enhanced chaos in a doped, weakly coupled GaAs/Al_{0.45}Ga_{0.55}As superlattice has been observed at room temperature in experiments as well as in the results of the simulation of nonlinear transport based on a discrete tunneling…
We investigate the electronic structure of graphene monolayers subjected to patterned dielectric superlattices. Through a quantum capacitance model approach, we simulate realistic devices capable of imposing periodic potentials on graphene.…
