Unearthing the foundational role of anharmonicity in heat transport in glasses

The time-honored Allen -Feldman theory of heat transport in glasses is generally assumed to predict a finite value for the thermal conductivity, even if it neglects the anharmonic broadening of vibrational normal modes. We demonstrate that the harmonic app ...

Interfacial Inversion, Interference, and IR Absorption in Vibrational Sum Frequency Scattering Experiments

Sylvie Roke, Saranya Pullanchery Sankara Narayanan, Lei Zhang, Sergey Kulik

Molecular interfacial structure greatly determines thepropertiesof nano- and microscale systems. Vibrational sum frequency scattering(SFS) spectroscopy is a unique interface-selective tool to measurethe interfacial vibrational spectrum of sub-micron to mic ...

Correlated insulator collapse due to quantum avalanche via in-gap ladder states

Xi Chen, Camille Didier Georges Aron

The significant discrepancy observed between the predicted and experimental switching fields in correlated insulators under a DC electric field far-from-equilibrium necessitates a reevaluation of current microscopic understanding. Here we show that an elec ...

Koopmans Spectral Functionals in Periodic Boundary Conditions

Nicola Marzari, Nicola Colonna, Edward Baxter Linscott, Riccardo De Gennaro

Koopmans spectral functionals aim to describe simultaneously ground-state properties and charged excitations of atoms, molecules, nanostructures, and periodic crystals. This is achieved by augmenting standard density functionals with simple but physically ...

Evidence for a spin acoustic surface plasmon from inelastic atom scattering

Davide Campi

Closed-shell atoms scattered from a metal surface exchange energy and momentum with surface phonons mostly via the interposed surface valence electrons, i.e., via the creation of virtual electron-hole pairs. The latter can then decay into surface phonons v ...

Structural, electronic, elastic, power, and transport properties of beta-Ga2O3 from first principles

Samuel Poncé, Feliciano Giustino

We investigate the structural, electronic, vibrational, power, and transport properties of the beta allotrope of Ga2O3 from first principles. We find phonon frequencies and elastic constants that reproduce the correct band ordering, in agreement with exper ...

Hubbard-corrected density functional perturbation theory with ultrasoft pseudopotentials

Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov, Matteo Cococcioni, Andrea Floris

We present in full detail a newly developed formalism enabling density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) calculations from a DFT + U ground state. The implementation includes ultrasoft pseudopotentials and is valid for both insulating and metallic syst ...

Balancing Density Functional Theory Interaction Energies in Charged Dimers Precursors to Organic Semiconductors

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alberto Fabrizio, Riccardo Petraglia

The pursuit of an increasingly accurate description of intermolecular interactions within the framework of Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) has motivated the construction of numerous benchmark databases over the past two decades. By far, the la ...

Time-reversal symmetry breaking Abelian chiral spin liquid in Mott phases of three-component fermions on the triangular lattice

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc, Pierre Marcel Nataf, Miklos Lajko, Carolin Boos

We provide numerical evidence in favor of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and the concomitant appearance of an Abelian chiral spin liquid for three-component fermions on the triangular lattice described by an SU(3) symmetric Hubbard model with hopping ...

Phonon origin and lattice evolution in charge density wave states

Helmuth Berger

Metallic transition metal dichalcogenides, such as tantalum diselenide (TaSe2), display quantum correlated phenomena of superconductivity and charge density waves (CDWs) at low temperatures. Here, the photophysics of 2H-TaSe2 during CDW transitions is reve ...
