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

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 ...

A recipe for cracking the quantum scaling limit with machine learned electron densities

Mario Geiger

A long-standing goal of science is to accurately simulate large molecular systems using quantum mechanics. The poor scaling of current quantum chemistry algorithms on classical computers, however, imposes an effective limit of about a few dozen atoms on tr ...

Anisotropic and nonlinear transport in microstructured 3D topological semimetals

Xiangwei Huang

Topological semimetals are frequently discussed as materials platforms for future electronics that exploit the remarkable properties of their quasiparticles. These ideas are mostly based on dispersion relations that mimic relativistic particles, such as We ...

Sondheimer oscillations as a probe of non-ohmic flow in WP2 crystals

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Chunyu Guo, Yi-Chiang Sun, Jonas De Jesus Diaz Gomez, Maarten Ruud van Delft, Jacopo Oswald

As conductors in electronic applications shrink, microscopic conduction processes lead to strong deviations from Ohm's law. Depending on the length scales of momentum conserving (l(MC)) and relaxing (l(MR)) electron scattering, and the device size (d), cur ...

A novel approach for SPICE modeling of light and radiation effects in ICs

Chiara Rossi

Modeling the interaction of ionizing radiation, either light or ions, in integrated circuits is essential for the development and optimization of optoelectronic devices and of radiation-tolerant circuits. Whereas for optical sensors photogenerated carriers ...

Low-energy excitations in type-II Weyl semimetal T-d-MoTe2 evidenced through optical conductivity

Ana Akrap

Molybdenum ditelluride, MoTe2, is a versatile material where the topological phase can be readily tuned by manipulating the associated structural phase transition. The fine details of the band structure of MoTe2, key to understanding its topological proper ...

Theory and Computation of Hall Scattering Factor in Graphene

Samuel Poncé, Feliciano Giustino

The Hall scattering factor, r, is a key quantity for establishing carrier concentration and drift mobility from Hall measurements; in experiments, it is usually assumed to be 1. In this paper, we use a combination of analytical and ab initio modeling to de ...

Mixed scalar-current bootstrap in three dimensions

Alessandro Vichi, Marten Jan Reehorst

We study the mixed system of correlation functions involving a scalar field charged under a global U(1) symmetry and the associated conserved spin-1 current J(mu). Using numerical bootstrap techniques we obtain bounds on new observables not accessible in t ...

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 ...

Electrochemical and morphological engineering of 2D materials for nanopore sensing

Martina Lihter

Nanopores are nanometer-sized holes that were initially proposed for DNA sequencing. Several years ago sequencing was made possible with biological nanopores. However, solid-state nanopores have plenty of advantages to offer compared to their biological co ...

Magnetic electron collimation in three-dimensional semi-metals

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Chunyu Guo, Xiangwei Huang, Jonas De Jesus Diaz Gomez

While electrons moving perpendicular to a magnetic field are confined to cyclotron orbits, they can move freely parallel to the field. This simple fact leads to complex current flow in clean, low carrier density semi-metals, such as long-ranged current jet ...
