A study from the Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA) has uncovered a theoretical mechanism showing how the electronic band structures of strongly correlated insulators can be ...

An international collaborative research group has developed a new computational method to visualize the electronic states of aperiodic nanomaterials as band structures through first-principles ...

In graphene, charged defects break the electron-hole symmetry and can even give rise to exotic collapse states when the defect charge exceeds a critical value which is proportional to the Fermi ...

Here we provide a database comprising electronic band structures of 9,004 layered intercalation compounds, where atoms are intercalated into a host layered compound with different intercalant atoms, ...

Researchers have demonstrated that by using a semiconductor with flexible bonds, the material can be moulded into various structures using nano containers, without altering its composition, the ...

Bandgap refers to a region of an element’s crystal’s electronic band structure through which electrons can’t pass. Also referred to as an energy gap, bandgap is a concept in solid-state physics and ...

Giant molecule band unfolding visualizes band dispersions as local electronic structures in nanomaterials lacking translational symmetry, including bent nanoflakes, enabling interpretation of Dirac ...
