The article reviews recent progress in the theoretical understanding of near-field surface electromagnetic phenomena in pristine and atomically doped carbon nanotubes. The phenomena involving strong coupling effects are outlined. They are…

Several full-dimensional potential energy surfaces (PESs) are reported for vibrating CO adsorbates at two coverages on a rigid NaCl(100) surface based on first principles calculations. These PESs reveal a rather flat energy landscape for…

We propose using short-period superlattices as substrates to control the vibrational relaxation dynamics of adsorbate overlayers. The mass modulation of superlattices creates both band gaps and large spectral enhancements in the phonon…

Several properties of trapped hard sphere bosons are evaluated using variational Monte Carlo techniques. A trial wave function composed of a renormalized single particle Gaussian and a hard sphere Jastrow function for pair correlations is…

Tungsten and cobalt carbonyls adsorbed on a substrate are typical starting points for the electron beam induced deposition of tungsten or cobalt based metallic nanostructures. We employ first principles molecular dynamics simulations to…

In ceria-based catalysis, the shape of the catalyst particle, which determines the exposed crystal facets, profoundly affects its reactivity. The vibrational frequency of adsorbed carbon monoxide (CO) can be used as a sensitive probe to…

We present results of a new model of sequential adsorption in which the adsorbing particles are correlated with the particles attached to the substrate. The strength of the correlations is measured by a tunable parameter $\sigma$. The model…

We calculate the conductance spectra of a Co atom adsorbed on Cu(111), considering the Co $3d$ orbitals within a correlated multiple configurations model interacting through the substrate band with the Co $4s$ orbital, which is treated in a…

Spin-orbit interaction affects the band structure of topological insulators beyond the opening of an inverted gap in the bulk bands, and the understanding of its effects on the surface states is of primary importance to access the…

Chemisorption of CO on the stepped Cu(211) surface is studied within ab-initio density functional theory (DFT) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging as well as manipulation experiments. Theoretically we focus on the experimentally…

Cooperative effects allow for fascinating characteristics in light-matter interacting systems. Here, we study naturally occurring superradiant coupling in a class of quasi-two-dimensional, layered semiconductor systems. We perform optical…

We study the equilibrium properties of a model for a binary mixture of catalytically-reactive monomers adsorbed on a two-dimensional substrate decorated by randomly placed catalytic bonds. The interacting $A$ and $B$ monomer species undergo…

The FCC structure of Pd$\rm_{1-x}$Ag$\rm_{x}$ ($\rm{x}=$ 0.25, 0.50, 0.75) alloys is considered as a fuel cell component in this study. We have looked into its qualities as a component of a fuel cell to see whether it could be potentially…

We have performed a thorough computational study to assess the accuracy of density functional theory (DFT) methods in describing the interactions of CO2 with model alkali-earth-metal (AEM, Ca and Li) decorated carbon structures, namely…

The segregation behavior of the bimetallic alloys PtPd and CoCr in the case of bare surfaces and in the presence of an oxygen ad-layer has been studied by means of first-principles modeling based on density-functional theory (DFT). For both…

Photonic band structure of metal-dielectric and semiconductor-dielectric layered structures are studied in the presence of a strong absorption. It is shown that absorption can enlarge some gaps by as much as 50%.

We study the modification of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) of Co slabs induced by several different conjugated molecular overlayers, i.e., benzene, cyclooctatetraene, naphthalene, pyrene and coronene. We perform first-principles…

We introduce Density Functional Theory for inhomogeneous Bose-Fermi mixtures, derive the associated Kohn-Sham equations, and determine the exchange-correlation energy in local density approximation. We solve numerically the Kohn-Sham system…

Spontaneous decay of an excited atom near a dispersing and absorbing microsphere of given complex permittivity that satisfies the Kramers-Kronig relations is studied, with special emphasis on a Drude-Lorentz permittivity. Both the…

The normal modes of a commensurate monolayer solid may be damped by mixing with elastic waves of the substrate. This was shown by B. Hall et al., Phys. Rev. B 32, 4932 (1985), for perpendicular adsorbate vibrations in the presence of an…
