Ab-initio analysis of plasmon dispersion in sodium under pressure
J. Ibañez-Azpiroz, B. Rousseau, A. Eiguren +1
We present an ab-initio study of the electronic response function of sodium in its 5 known metallic phases from 0 to 180 GPa at room temperature. The considered formalism is based…
Charge, spin and lattice effects in the spin-Peierls ground state of MEM(TCNQ)
M. Poirier, M. de Lafontaine, C. Bourbonnais +1
We report an investigation of charge, spin and lattice effects in the spin-Peierls state of the organic compound MEM(TCNQ). The 16.5 GHz dielectric function along the chain axi…
Direct observation of ultrafast long-range charge separation at polymer:fullerene heterojunctions
Françoise Provencher, Nicolas Bérubé, Anthony W. Parker +7
In polymeric semiconductors, charge carriers are polarons, which means that the excess charge deforms the molecular structure of the polymer chain that hosts it. This effect result…
Multi-phase semicrystalline microstructures drive exciton dissociation in neat plastic semiconductors
Francis Paquin, Jonathan Rivnay, Alberto Salleo +2
The optoelectronic properties of macromolecular semiconductors depend fundamentally on their solid-state microstructure. For example, the molecular-weight distribution influences p…
Noise-induced quantum coherence drives photocarrier generation dynamics at polymeric semiconductor heterojunctions
Eric R. Bittner, Carlos Silva
We present a fully quantum-mechanical model of the electronic dynamics of primary photoexcitations in a polymeric semiconductor heterojunction, which includes both polymer stacking…
Exciton fission via ultrafast long-range resonant tunnelling in organic photovoltaic diodes
Eric R. Bittner, Carlos Silva
We present an exciton/lattice model of the electronic dynamics of primary photoexcitations in a polymeric semiconductor heterojunction which includes both polymer pi-stacking, ener…
Re-entrant magnetic field induced charge and spin gaps in the coupled dual-chain quasi-one dimensional organic conductor Perylene[Pt(mnt)]
L. E. Winter, J. S. Brooks, P. Schlottmann +3
An inductive method is used to follow the magnetic field-dependent susceptibility of the coupled charge density wave (CDW) and spin-Peierls (SP) ordered state behavior in the dual…
Two-dimensional spatial coherence of excitons in semicrystalline polymeric semiconductors: The effect of molecular weight
Francis Paquin, Hajime Yamagata, Nicholas J. Hestand +8
The electronic properties of macromolecular semiconductor thin films depend profoundly on their solid-state microstructure, which in turn is governed, among other things, by the pr…
Replenish and relax: explaining logarithmic annealing in disordered materials
Laurent Karim Béland, Yonathan Anahory, Dries Smeets +7
Fatigue and aging of materials are, in large part, determined by the evolution of the atomic-scale structure in response to strains and perturbations. This coupling between microsc…
Spiral graphone and one sided fluorographene nano-ribbons
M. Neek-Amal, J. Beheshtian, F. Shayeganfar +3
The instability of a free-standing one sided hydrogenated/fluorinated graphene nano-ribbon, i.e. graphone/fluorographene, is studied using ab-initio, semiempirical and large scale…
Correlated Dirac Particles and Superconductivity on the Honeycomb Lattice
Wei Wu, Michael M. Scherer, Carsten Honerkamp +1
We investigate the properties of the nearest-neighbor singlet pairing and the emergence of d-wave superconductivity in the doped honeycomb lattice considering the limit of large in…
