We analyze two-particle binding factors of H2, LiH, and HeH+ molecules/ions with the help of our original exact diagonalization ab intio (EDABI) approach. The interelectronic correlations are taken into account rigorously within the second…
Using a break junction technique, we find a clear signature for the formation of conducting hybrid junctions composed of a single organic molecule (benzene, naphthalene or anthracene) connected to chains of platinum atoms. The hybrid…
The electronic properties of single- and multi-cation transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) are investigated using first-principles density functional approach. A detailed comparison of the electronic band structure of stoichiometric and…
The covalent-like characteristics of hydrogen bonds offer a new perspective on intermolecular interactions. Here, using density functional theory and post-Hartree-Fock methods, we reveal that there are two bonding molecular orbitals (MOs)…
Many areas of chemistry are devoted to the challenge of understanding, predicting, and controlling the behavior of strongly localized electrons. Examples include molecular magnetism and luminescence, color centers in crystals,…
In atoms spin-orbit coupling (SOC) cannot raise the angular momentum above a maximum value or lower it below a minimum. Here we show that this need not be the case in materials built from nanoscale structures including multi-nuclear…
Many physical systems involve two types of orientational order, which are coupled together. For example, ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals have coupled polar and nematic order, and tilted hexatic phases have coupled polar and hexatic…
The "chemical bond" is a central concept in molecular sciences, but there is no consensus as to what a bond actually is. Therefore, a variety of bonding models have been developed, each defining the structure of molecules in a different…
Recent rsearches have shown that the lengths of the chemical bonds, whether completely or partially covalent or ionic, are sums of the radii of the adjacent atoms and/or ions. On investigating the bond length data for the molecular…
In a recent Letter, Gopalakrishnan, Martin, and Demler [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111 (2013) 185304] show that quasi-two-dimensional dipolar Bose gases, subject to a Rashba spin-orbit coupling, exhibit a variety of spatially ordered, or crystalline,…
Analysis of the electron density distribution in clusters composed of hydrogen fluoride, water, and ammonia molecules, especially within the hydrogen-bond domains, reveals the existence of both \sigma- and \pi-binding between molecules. The…
Rajasekharan and Girgis reported that binary systems with intermetallic compounds of a particular crystal structure form a straight line on a map using Miedema parameters. In this paper, the universality of that observation is examined.…
Ultracold bosons in optical lattices are one of the few systems where bosonic matter is known to exhibit strong correlations. Here we push the frontier of our understanding of interacting bosons in optical lattices by adding synthetic…
We introduce a method for accurate quantum chemical calculations based on a simple variational wave function, defined by a single geminal that couples all the electrons into singlet pairs, combined with a real space correlation factor. The…
The formation of the four three-ring systems \ce{c-(CH2)_{3-k}(SiH2)_{k}}, ($k=0$: cyclopropane, $k=1$: silirane, $k=2$: disilirane, $k=3$: cyclotrisilane) by addition of methylene and silylene to the double bond in ethene, disilene, and…
We reconsider a key point in semiconductor physics, the splitting of the valence band states induced by the spin-orbit interaction, through a novel approach which uses neither the group theory formalism, nor the usual…
We propose an accurate tight-binding parametrization for the band structure of MoS$_2$ monolayers near the main energy gap. We introduce a generic and straightforward derivation for the band energies equations that could be employed for…
The symmetry-projected Hartree--Fock ansatz for the electronic structure problem can efficiently account for static correlation in molecules, yet it is often unable to describe dynamic correlation in a balanced manner. Here, we consider a…
This review presents the covalent chemistry of carbon within the spin-radical concept of electron interaction. Using the language of valence bond trimodality, the regions of classical spinless covalence and its spin counterpart are defined.…
While solid-state materials are commonly classified as covalent, ionic, or metallic, there are cases that defy these iconic bonding mechanisms. A prominent example is given by phase-change materials (PCMs) for data storage or photonics,…
