Understanding disorder in 2D materials: the case of carbon doping of Silicene
Ricardo Pablo-Pedro, Miguel Angel Magana-Fuentes, Marcelo Videa +4
We investigate the effect of lattice disorder and local correlation effects in finite and periodic silicene structures caused by carbon doping using first-principles calculations.…
Quantized Thermoelectric Hall Effect Induces Giant Power Factor in a Topological Semimetal
Fei Han, Nina Andrejevic, Thanh Nguyen +14
Thermoelectrics are promising by directly generating electricity from waste heat. However, (sub-)room-temperature thermoelectrics have been a long-standing challenge due to vanishi…
Quantized dislocations for functional and quantum materials
Mingda Li, Ricardo Pablo-Pedro
Dislocations have a profound influence on materials functional properties. In this perspective, we discuss the recent development of quantized dislocations - a theoretical tool tha…
Phonon Quantum Phase Transition
Ricardo Pablo-Pedro, Nina Andrejevic, Yoichiro Tsurimaki +5
We show that a quantum phase transition can occur in a phonon system in the presence of dislocations. Due to the competing nature between the topological protection of the dislocat…
