Prediction of Tunable Spin-Orbit Gapped Materials for Dark Matter Detection
Katherine Inzani, Alireza Faghaninia, Sinéad M. Griffin
New ideas for low-mass dark matter direct detection suggest that narrow band gap materials, such as Dirac semiconductors, are sensitive to the absorption of meV dark matter or the…

Efficient calculation of carrier scattering rates from first principles
Alex M. Ganose, Junsoo Park, Alireza Faghaninia +3
The electronic transport behaviour of materials determines their suitability for technological applications. We develop an efficient method for calculating carrier scattering rates…
