Ab initio investigation of the groundstate, electronic, and optical properties of polyyne and cumulene prototypes

Carlo Motta, Marco Cazzaniga, Andrea Bordoni +1

We have investigated polyyne and cumulene prototypes based on the density-functional theory. Our independent-particle spectra show that the various carbynes can be distinguished by…

Structure and stability of the Si(331)-(12x1) surface reconstruction

Corsin Battaglia, Katalin Gaal-Nagy, Giovanni Onida +1

We recently proposed a new structural model for the Si(331)-(12x1) surface reconstruction containing silicon pentamers as elementary structural building blocks. Using first-princip…
