Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Haifeng Ji, Feng Wang, Jinru Chen, Zhilin Li, | Summary: This paper presents a new parameter free partially penalized immersed finite element method and convergence analysis for solving second order elliptic interface problems. A lifting operator is introduced on interface edges to ensure the coercivity of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alessandra Lanzara | First 5 Authors: Nicholas Dale, Ryo Mori, M. Iqbal Bakti Utama, Jonathan D. Denlinger, Conrad Stansbury | Summary: Electron-hole asymmetry is a fundamental property in solids that can determine the nature of quantum phase transitions and the regime of operation for devices. The observation of electron-hole asymmetry in graphene and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Tessa Cookmeyer, Johannes Motruk, Joel E. Moore, , | Summary: At strong repulsion, the triangular-lattice Hubbard model is described by $s=1/2$ spins with nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions and exhibits conventional 120$^circ$ order. Using the infinite density matrix renormalization group and exact diagonalization, we study the effect […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alex Zettl | First 5 Authors: Qingqing Ji, Cong Su, Nannan Mao, Xuezeng Tian, Juan-Carlos Idrobo | Summary: Achieving large-size two-dimensional (2D) crystals is key to fully exploiting their remarkable functionalities and application potentials. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of 2D semiconductors such as monolayer MoS2 has been reported to be activated by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristin A. Persson | First 5 Authors: Casper W. Andersen, Rickard Armiento, Evgeny Blokhin, Gareth J. Conduit, Shyam Dwaraknath | Summary: The Open Databases Integration for Materials Design (OPTIMADE) consortium has designed a universal application programming interface (API) to make materials databases accessible and interoperable. We outline the first stable release of the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Ian Convy, William Huggins, Haoran Liao, K. Birgitta Whaley, | Summary: Tensor networks have emerged as promising tools for machine learning, inspired by their widespread use as variational ansatze in quantum many-body physics. It is well known that the success of a given tensor network ansatz depends […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Chloe Ya Gao, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: We introduce a thermodynamically consistent, minimal stochastic model for complementary logic gates built with field-effect transistors. We characterize the performance of such gates with tools from information theory and study the interplay between accuracy, speed, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael F. Crommie | First 5 Authors: Hongyuan Li, Shaowei Li, Mit H. Naik, Jingxu Xie, Xinyu Li | Summary: Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) moir’e heterostructures provide an ideal platform to explore the extended Hubbard model1 where long-range Coulomb interactions play a critical role in determining strongly correlated electron states. This has led […]
Kavli Affiliate: Peidong Yang | First 5 Authors: Li Na Quan, Yoonjae Park, Peijun Guo, Mengyu Gao, Jianbo Jin | Summary: Organic-inorganic layered perovskites are two-dimensional quantum wells with layers of lead-halide octahedra stacked between organic ligand barriers. The combination of their dielectric confinement and ionic sublattice results in excitonic excitations with substantial binding energies […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Raisa-Ioana Biega, Marina R. Filip, Linn Leppert, Jeffrey B. Neaton, | Summary: Halide double perovskites with alternating silver and pnictogen cations are an emerging family of photoabsorber materials with robust stability and band gaps in the visible range. However, the nature of optical excitations in these […]
