Layered quasi-two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), which can be readily made in ultrathin films, offer excellent opportunities for studying how dimensionality affects electronic structure and physical properties. Among all TMDCs, ${\mathrm{NbSe}}_{2}$ is of special interest; bulk ${\mathrm{NbSe}}_…

The lighter group-V element phosphorus forms the As-type (hR2) structure under pressure, above 5 GPa, and at 10 GPa transforms to the simple cubic structure (cP1), similar to arsenic. Despite of its low packing density, the simple cubic structure is stable in phosphorus over a very wide pressure range up to 103 GPa. O…

We use a data-driven approach to study the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of van der Waals (vdW) layered materials. We investigate monolayers of the form A$_2$B$_2$X$_6$, based on the known material Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$, using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and machine learning methods to determine…

We report on measurements of magnetic field and temperature dependence of antiferromagnetic resonances in the prototypical antiferromagnet NiO. The frequencies of the magnetic resonances in the vicinity of 1 THz have been determined in the time-domain via time-resolved Faraday measurements after selective excitation b…

Solid-state cooling based on i-caloric effects is considered the most promising alternative to replace the conventional vapor-compression refrigeration systems. It is possible to define an i-caloric effect as a thermal response registered in a material upon the application of an external field, characterized by an adi…

Charge transport plays an important role in defining both far-field and near-field optical response of a plasmonic nanostructure with an ultrasmall built-in nanogap. As the gap size of a gold core-shell nanomatryoshka approaches the sub-nanometer length scale, charge transport may occur and strongly alter the near-fie…

Chemical treatment using bis(trifluoromethane) sulfonimide (TFSI) was shown to be particularly effective for increasing the photoluminescence (PL) of monolayer (1L) MoS 2, suggesting a convenient method for overcoming the intrinsically low quantum yield of this material. However, the underlying atomic mechanism of the…

In this research, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructure was prepared by using zinc acetate (as precursor) and carboxylic derivative of activated carbon (as matrix). Activated carbon was modified by oxidation with nitric acid to get carboxylic derivative (AC–COOH). Then, zinc was loaded on the surface of modified activated ca…

Doping of a hydride (H – ) into an oblate-shaped gold cluster [Au 9 (PPh 3 ) 8 ] 3+ was observed for the first time by mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. Density functional theory calculations for the product [Au 9 H(PPh 3 ) 8 ] 2+ demonstrated that the (Au 9 H) 2+ core can be viewed as a nearly spherical superat…

Extraordinary Young’s interference is an anomalous phenomenon observed at metallic surface in 2004. The shrinkage of slit size into deep subwavelength scale introduces many novel effects that cannot be described by classic interference theory. In this paper, the Young’s interference excited by subwavelength slits is i…
