Optimal Matching of Thermal Vibrations into Carbon Nanotubes
K. G. S. H. Gunawardana, Kieran Mullen
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising candidates to improve the thermal conductivity of nano-composites. The main obstacle to these applications is the extremely high thermal bound…
Quantum-Electrodynamical Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory. I. A Gaussian Atomic Basis Implementation
Junjie Yang, Qi Ou, Zheng Pei +4
Inspired by the formulation of quantum-electrodynamical time-dependent density functional theory (QED-TDDFT) by Rubio and coworkers, we propose an implementation that uses dimensio…
Automatic Learning of Topological Phase Boundaries
Alexander Kerr, Geo Jose, Colin Riggert +1
Topological phase transitions, which do not adhere to Landau's phenomenological model (i.e. a spontaneous symmetry breaking process and vanishing local order parameters) have been…
Topological Effects in Tunneling-Coupled Systems of One-Dimensional Quantum Rings
Colin Riggert, Kieran Mullen
Using a model of idealized, crossed one-dimensional quantum wires we construct a novel model for a single electron on tunneling-coupled systems of one-dimensional quantum rings. We…
A Comparison of Genetic Algorithms and Simulated Annealing in Maximizing the Thermal Conductivity of Discrete Massive Chains
Alexander Kerr, Kieran Mullen
Functions of chemical composition are complex and discrete in nature making it impossible to optimize them with gradient methods. Genetic algorithms, which do not use derivative in…
Pseudo-Magnetic Quantum Hall Effect In Oscillating Graphene
Anita Bhagat, Kieran Mullen
When a graphene layer is stressed, the strain alters the phase an electron accumulates hopping between sites in a way that can be modeled as arising from a pseudo-magnetic vector p…
