Towards Quantum-Dot Detectors as Barcodes for Dark Matter Interactions
Marek Matas, Andrea Gallo Rosso, Antonio Cammarata +6
Quantum dots are tunable semiconductor nanocrystals that can be produced at industrial scales. We present the first ab initio calculation of the scattering of dark matter on electr…
First principles study of chalcogen vacancy effect on the optoelectronic and photocatalytic properties of transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers
Tahir Wahab, Antonio Cammarata, Tomas Polcar
In working conditions, chalcogen vacancies spontaneously occur in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) monolayers, affecting their optoelectronic and photocatal…
From Defects to Devices: Design Guidelines for High-Performance Diamond-Based Solar Cells and Single-Dopant Diodes
Matúš Kaintz, Antonio Cammarata
This work establishes key technological guidelines for designing diamond-based optoelectronic devices, derived from a first-principles investigation of two architectures: a PIN jun…
Tuning magnitude and direction of lattice thermal conductivity in transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayers
Elliot Perviz, Antonio Cammarata
We investigate the nanoscale mechanisms determining lattice thermal conductivity (LTC) of pristine and W-doped MX-MX transition metal dichalcogenide heterob…
Microscopic contributions to the deviation from Amontons friction law
Suresh Ravisankar, Ravikant Kumar, Antonio Cammarata +2
We investigate the nanoscale friction behaviour of MX2 monolayers (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se) on Au(111) and Ag(111) substrates with a silicon tip using classical molecular dynamics sim…
