Momentum-Space Imaging of Ultra-Thin Electron Liquids in δ-Doped Silicon

Two-dimensional dopant layers (δ-layers) in semiconductors provide the high-mobility electron liquids (2DELs) needed for nanoscale quantum-electronic devices. Key parameters such as carrier densities, effective masses, and confinement thicknesses for 2DELs ...

Fermi energy determination for advanced smearing techniques

Nicola Marzari, Flaviano José Dos Santos

Smearing techniques are widely used in first-principles calculations of metallic and magnetic materials where they improve the accuracy of Brillouin-zone sampling and lessen the impact of level-crossing instabilities. Smearing introduces a fictitious elect ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Functionalized Spacer Cations for the Incorporation in Layered Perovskites

Simon Nussbaum

Layered hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (LHOIP) materials are an emerging class of semiconductors endorsed as a more stable alternative compared to the more widely investigated 3D hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites (HOIP). Consisting of altern ...

Berry curvature dipole generation and helicity-to-spin conversion at symmetry-mismatched heterointerfaces

Peng Chen, Xupeng Yang

The Berry curvature dipole (BCD) is a key parameter that describes the geometric nature of energy bands in solids. It defines the dipole-like distribution of Berry curvature in the band structure and plays a key role in emergent nonlinear phenomena. The th ...

Electrical detection of the flat-band dispersion in van der Waals field-effect structures

Andras Kis, Oleg Yazyev, Fedele Tagarelli, Kristians Cernevics, Zhe Sun, Gabriele Pasquale, Edoardo Lopriore

Two-dimensional flat-band systems have recently attracted considerable interest due to the rich physics unveiled by emergent phenomena and correlated electronic states at van Hove singularities. However, the difficulties in electrically detecting the flat- ...

Unraveling the Effect of the Chemical and Structural Composition of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 on the Electron Transfer at the Electrochemical Interface

Sandro Carrara, Mallikarjun Madagalam

In order to deepen the understanding of the role of transition metal oxides in electron transfer at the electrochemical interface, the performance of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1) nanomaterials in electrochemical sensing is studied. Nanomate ...

Hierarchy of quasisymmetries and degeneracies in the CoSi family of chiral crystal materials

Yi-Chiang Sun, Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Chunyu Guo

In materials, certain approximated symmetry operations can exist in a lower-order approximation of the effective model but are good enough to influence the physical responses of the system, and these approximated symmetries were recently dubbed "quasisymme ...

Automated mixing of maximally localized Wannier functions into target manifolds

Nicola Marzari, Giovanni Pizzi, Junfeng Qiao

Maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) are widely used in electronic-structure calculations. We have recently developed automated approaches to generate MLWFs that represent natural tight-binding sets of atomic-like orbitals; these describe accurate ...

Atomic-scale Characterization of Strain and Gate effects on Two-dimensional Materials by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy

Jz -Yuan Juo

Strain is an inevitable phenomenon in two-dimensional (2D) material, regardless of whether the film is suspended or supported. Moreover, strain is known to alter the physical and chemical properties, such as the band gap, charge carrier effective masses, d ...

Deuterated TEKPol Biradicals and the Spin-Diffusion Barrier in MAS DNP

Dominik Józef Kubicki, David Lyndon Emsley, Yu Rao, Amrit Venkatesh, Federico De Biasi

The sensitivity of NMR spectroscopy is considerably enhanced by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP). In DNP polarization is transferred from unpaired electrons of a polarizing agent to nearby proton spins. In solids, this transfer is followed by the transpo ...

Magnon-phonon interactions enhance the gap at the Dirac point in the spin-wave spectra of CrI3 two-dimensional magnets

Iurii Timrov

Recent neutron-diffraction experiments in honeycomb CrI3 quasi-2D ferromagnets have evinced the existence of a gap at the Dirac point in their spin-wave spectra. The existence of this gap has been attributed to strong in-plane Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya or Kita ...
