The computation of electron repulsion integrals (ERIs) is the most time‐consuming process in the density functional calculation using Gaussian basis set. Many temporal ERIs are calculated, and most are stored on slower storage, such as cache or memory, because of the shortage of registers, which are the fastest storag…

Polarized Raman scattering measurement on single wurtzite c-plane (001) ZnO nanorod grown by hydrothermal method has been performed at room temperature. The polarization dependence of the intensity of the Raman scattering for the phonon modes A1(TO), E1(TO), and E2high in the ZnO nanorod are obtained. The deviations o…

We study the performance of a hybrid Graphene-Boron Nitride armchair nanoribbon (a-GNR-BN) n-MOSFET at its ballistic transport limit. We consider three geometric configurations 3p, 3p + 1, and 3p + 2 of a-GNR-BN with BN atoms embedded on either side (2, 4, and 6 BN) on the GNR. Material properties like band gap, effec…

To investigate the possibility of whether electron-phonon coupling can enhance orbital fluctuations in iron-based superconductors, we develop an ab initio method to construct the effective low-energy models including the phonon-related terms. With the derived effective electron-phonon interactions and phonon frequenci…

We report numeric and analytic calculations of the electrostatic properties for armchair carbon nanotube–graphene junctions. Using a semi-empirical method we first demonstrate that the equilibrium distance between a carbon nanotube and a graphene sheet varies with respect to the diameter of the carbon nanotube. We fin…

A simple model on the evolution mechanism of PPy capacitance during prolonged cycling offers a reasonably description on the rapid increase and decay of PPy capacitance in 1 M 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate/propylene carbonate (EtMeImBF4/PC). The capacitance of PPy films reached a very high specific cap…

Hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) is used to investigate the intrinsic electronic properties of single crystal epitaxial CdO(100) thin films grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). The reduced surface sensitivity of the HAXPES technique relaxes stringent surface preparation requirements, there…

The performance limits of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) field-effect transistors (FETs) with isotropic biaxial strain were examined with the “top-of-the-barrier” ballistic MOSFET model. Using a first-principle theory, we calculated the band structures and density of states of strained monolayer MoS2…
