In search of the ground state crystal structure of TaO from ab-initio and Monte Carlo simulations
Andrea Pedrielli, Nicola Maria Pugno, Maurizio Dapor +1
Tantalum oxides (TaO) are characterised by attractive physical and chemical properties, such as high dielectric constants and anti-reflection behaviour. Recently, TaO$_…
Electronic excitation spectra of cerium oxides: from ab initio dielectric response functions to Monte Carlo charge transport simulations
Andrea Pedrielli, Pablo de Vera, Paolo E. Trevisanutto +5
Nanomaterials made of the cerium oxides CeO and CeO have a broad range of applications, from catalysts in automotive, industrial or energy operations to promising mater…
Structural, Electronic and Mechanical properties of all-sp graphene allotropes: the specific strength of tilene parent is higher than that of graphene and flakene has the minimal density
Tommaso Morresi, Andrea Pedrielli, Silvio a Beccara +3
In this work a systematic approach to the search for all- bonded carbon allotropes with low density is presented. In particular, we obtain a number of novel energetically sta…
On deformation of carbon nanotubes with TersoffCG: a case study
Andrea Pedrielli
Recently, TersoffCG, a coarse grain potential for graphene based on Tersoff potential, has been developed. In this work, we explore this potential, applying it to the case study of…
Gas Adsorption and Dynamics in Pillared Graphene Frameworks
Andrea Pedrielli, Simone Taioli, Giovanni Garberoglio +1
Pillared Graphene Frameworks are a novel class of microporous materials made by graphene sheets separated by organic spacers. One of their main features is that the pillar type and…
