Raman Characterization of Platinum Diselenide Thin Films
Maria O'Brien, Niall McEvoy, Carlo Motta +12
Platinum diselenide (PtSe2) is a newly discovered 2D material which is of great interest for applications in electronics and catalysis. PtSe2 films were synthesized by thermally-as…
Charge carrier mobility in hybrid halide perovskites
Carlo Motta, Fedwa El Mellouhi, Stefano Sanvito
The charge transport properties of hybrid halide perovskites are investigated with a combination of density functional theory including van der Waals interaction and the Boltzmann…
Revealing the role of organic cations in hybrid halide perovskites CH3NH3PbI3
Carlo Motta, Fedwa El Mellouhi, Sabre Kais +3
The hybrid halide perovskite CHNHPbI has enabled solar cells to reach an efficiency of about 18\%, demonstrating a pace for improvements with no precedents in the…
Resonant Lifetime of Core-Excited Organic Adsorbates from First Principles
Guido Fratesi, Carlo Motta, Maria Italo Trioni +2
We investigate by first-principles simulations the resonant electron-transfer lifetime from the excited state of an organic adsorbate to a semiconductor surface, namely isonicotini…
Effects of axial torsion on sp carbon atomic nanowires
Luca Ravagnan, Nicola Manini, Eugenio Cinquanta +7
Ab-initio calculations within Density Functional Theory combined with experimental Raman spectra on cluster-beam deposited pure carbon films provide a consistent picture of sp-carb…
