Hot electron driven enhancement of spin-lattice coupling in 4f ferromagnets observed by femtosecond x-ray magnetic circular dichroism

Marko Wietstruk, Alexey Melnikov, Christian Stamm +7

Femtosecond x-ray magnetic circular dichroism was used to study the time-dependent magnetic moment of 4 fs electrons in the ferromagnets Gd and Tb, which are known for their differ…

Localized versus extended systems in density-functional theory: some lessons from the Kohn-Sham exact exchange potential

C. M. Horowitz, C. R. Proetto, J. M. Pitarke

A long-standing puzzle in density-functional theory is the issue of the long-range behavior of the Kohn-Sham exchange-correlation potential at metal surfaces. As an important step…

The isotope-effect in the phase transition of KDP: New insights from ab initio path-integral simulations

Varadharajan Srinivasan, Roberto Car, Daniel Sebastiani

We investigate the quantum-mechanical localization of protonated and deterated isotopes in the symmetric low-barrier hydrogen-bonds of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals…

Graphene Growth by Metal Etching on Ru(0001)

E. Loginova, S. Maier, I. Stass +4

Low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) reveals a new mode of graphene growth on Ru(0001) in which Ru atoms are etched from a step edge and injected under a growing graphene sheet. B…
