The overarching objective of this thesis is extending and adapting the set of computational tools available for describing molecular precursors of organic semiconductors. The research presented within develops adhering to three principle goals: (1) provide ...
We employed in situ pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to investigate the mechanism of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in NdNiO3 (NNO) thin films, grown on NdGaO3(110) and LaAlO3(100) substrates. In the ...
New advances in X-ray diffraction, extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), and X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) using synchrotron radiation have now provided compelling evidence for a short-range charge density wave phase (CDW) called ...
Zn1-xCoxO (0 < x < 0.146) conductive thin films have been deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering of metallic Zn and Co targets at high pressure and temperature. The structural properties have been investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray ...
BaVS3 presents a metal-to-insulator (MI) transition at ambient pressure due to the stabilization of a 2k(F) commensurate charge density wave (CDW) Peierls ground state built on the dz(2) V orbitals. The MI transition vanishes under pressure at a quantum cr ...
High-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides arises when a parent insulator compound is doped beyond some critical concentration; what exactly happens at this superconductor–insulator transition is a key open question1. The cleanest approach is to t ...
Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we show that the recently discovered surface state on SrTiO3 consists of nondegenerate t(2g) states with different dimensional characters. While the d(xy) bands have quasi-2D dispersions with weak k(z) depen ...
An extensive surface characterization of hydrofluoric acid (HF) etched and annealed SrTiO3 single crystals, vacuum-annealed below 300 degrees C, reveals the formation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). A joint scanning tunneling spectroscopy and low ...
Vanadium dioxide undergoes a first order metal-insulator transition at 340 K. In this Letter, we develop and carry out state-of-the-art linear scaling density-functional theory calculations refined with nonlocal dynamical mean-field theory. We identify a c ...
We highlight the emergence of metallic states in two-dimensional transition-metal-dichalcogenide nanostructures nanoribbons, islands, and inversion domain boundaries as a widespread and universal phenomenon driven by the polar discontinuities occurring at ...
