Mapping Orbital-Resolved Magnetism in Single Lanthanide Atoms

Harald Brune, Stefano Rusponi, Marina Pivetta, Fabio Donati, Aparajita Singha

Single lanthanide atoms and molecules are promising candidates for atomic data storage and quantum logic due to the long lifetime of their magnetic quantum states. Accessing and controlling these states through electrical transport requires precise knowled ...

Tunneling processes through magnetic impurities on superconducting surfaces: Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states and the Josephson effect

Haonan Huang

Magnetic impurities generate a wealth of phenomena on surfaces. On metals, conducting electrons screen the magnetic moment giving rise to the Kondo effect. On superconductors, the Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states emerge inside the superconducting gap due to t ...

Coarse graining and large-N behavior of the d-dimensional N-clock model

Matthias Benjamin Ruf

We study the asymptotic behavior of the N-clock model, a nearest neighbors ferromagnetic spin model on the d-dimensional cubic epsilon-lattice in which the spin field is constrained to take values in a discretization S-N of the unit circle S-1 consisting o ...

Yapa: Accelerated Proximal Algorithm For Convex Composite Problems

Mireille El Gheche

Proximal splitting methods are standard tools for nonsmooth optimization. While primal-dual methods have become very popular in the last decade for their flexibility, primal methods may still be preferred for two reasons: acceleration schemes are more effe ...

Even-odd conductance effect in graphene nanoribbons induced by edge functionalization with aromatic molecules: basis for novel chemosensors

Oleg Yazyev, Michele Pizzochero, Kristians Cernevics

We theoretically investigate the electron transport in armchair and zigzag graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) chemically functionalized withp-polyphenyl and polyacene groups of increasing length. Our nearest-neighbor tight-binding calculations indicate that, depe ...

Charge transfer dynamics in Ar+ + CO

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Differential cross sections for the charge transfer reaction between Ar(+)and CO have been measured using three-dimensional velocity map imaging in a crossed beam setup at the two relative collision energies 0.55 and 0.74 eV. We find dominant forward scatt ...

Modeling, predicting and mining metabolism at atom-level resolution

Jasmin Maria Hafner

Living organisms can catalyze many thousands of biochemical reactions that they use to convert energy and matter, which provides them with the essentials for life. The sum of these chemical reactions happening in an organism is called metabo-lism. Understa ...

Learning the electronic density of states in condensed matter

Michele Ceriotti, Andrea Anelli, Chiheb Ben Mahmoud

The electronic density of states (DOS) quantifies the distribution of the energy levels that can be occupied by electrons in a quasiparticle picture and is central to modern electronic structure theory. It also underpins the computation and interpretation ...

Hole transporting materials for perovskite solar cells and a simple approach for determining the performance limiting factors

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Tom Theodorus Antonius Lummen, Iwan Zimmermann

The synthesis and characterization of three novel HTMs with different highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels and their performances in MAPbI(3)-based devices in comparison with Spiro-OMeTAD is reported. Without systematic optimization, the ...

Oxygen evolution reaction: Bifunctional mechanism breaking the linear scaling relationship

Alfredo Pasquarello, Patrick Gono

The bifunctional mechanism for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) involving two distinct reaction sites is studied through the computational hydrogen electrode method for a set of catalyst materials including rutile TiO2(110), anatase TiO2(101), SnO2(110) ...
