Octahedral rotation instability in BaIrO
Alaska Subedi
BaIrO has been refined in the tetragonal phase without octahedral rotations, and its physical properties have been interpreted in this high-symmetry structure. How…
Pressure-tunable structural instabilities in single-layer-trilayer LaNiO
Alaska Subedi
Layered nickelates are believed to exhibit superconductivity similar to that found in the cuprates. However, the precise crystal structure of the superconducting phase of the layer…
Impact of hole-doping on the thermoelectric properties of pyrite FeS2
Anustup Mukherjee, Alaska Subedi
We present a comprehensive first-principles analysis of the thermoelectric transport properties of hole-doped pyrite FeS that includes electron-phonon interactions. This work w…
Deep-lying semi-Dirac fermions in hexagonal close-packed cadmium
Alaska Subedi, Kamran Behnia
Semi-Dirac fermions are massless in one direction and massive in the perpendicular directions. Such quasiparticles have been proposed in various contexts in condensed matter. Using…
Thermoelectric transport properties of electron doped pyrite FeS2
Anustup Mukherjee, Alaska Subedi
Pyrite FeS has been investigated for a wide range of applications, including thermoelectrics due to previous observation of large thermopower at room-temperature. However, the…
Minority-spin conducting states in Fe substituted pyrite CoS
Anustup Mukherjee, Alaska Subedi
There has been a longstanding debate whether the pyrite CoS or its alloys with FeS are half metallic. We argue using first principles calculations that there is a finite oc…
Transient translation symmetry breaking via quartic-order negative light-phonon coupling at the Brillouin zone boundary in KTaO
Adrián Gómez Pueyo, Alaska Subedi
KTaO presents a rich hyper-Raman spectrum originating from two-phonon processes at the Brillouin zone boundary, indicating the possibility of driving these phonon modes usi…
Light-induced translation symmetry breaking via nonlinear phononics
Adrián Gómez Pueyo, Alaska Subedi
Light has a wavelength that is usually longer than the size of the unit cell of crystals. Hence, even intense light pulses are not expected to break the translation symmetry of mat…
Hexagonal-to-base-centered-orthorhombic charge density wave order in kagome metals KVSb, RbVSb, and CsVSb
Alaska Subedi
I search for the ground state structures of the kagome metals KVSb, RbVSb, and CsVSb using first principles calculations. Group-theoretical analysis shows t…
Trigonal-to-monoclinic structural transition in TiSe due to a combined condensation of and phonon instabilities
Alaska Subedi
I present first principles calculations of the phonon dispersions of TiSe in the phase, which is the currently accepted low-temperature structure of this mate…
Orthorhombic-to-monoclinic transition in TaNiSe due to a zone-center optical phonon instability
Alaska Subedi
I study dynamical instabilities in TaNiSe using density functional theory based calculations. The calculated phonon dispersions show two unstable optical branches. All the…
Observation of Poiseuille Flow of Phonons in Black Phosphorus
Yo Machida, Alaska Subedi, Kazuto Akiba +5
The travel of heat in insulators is commonly pictured as a flow of phonons scattered along their individual trajectory. In rare circumstances, momentum-conserving collision events…
Breathing distortions in the metallic, antiferromagnetic phase of LaNiO
Alaska Subedi
I study the structural and magnetic instabilities in LaNiO using density functional theory calculations. From the non-spin-polarized structural relaxations, I find that several…
Mott-to-Goodenough insulator-insulator transition in LiVO
Alaska Subedi
I critically examine Goodenough's explanation for the experimentally observed phase transition in LiVO using microscopic calculations based on density functional and dynamical…
Modulated, three-directional, and polar structural instability in layered NaTiO
Alaska Subedi
I study the experimentally observed metal-to-metal structural phase transition in NaTiO using density functional calculations. I do not find the previously proposed low-tempera…
