Repairing PBE-Spurious Metallicity for HSE06-Level Screening of 2D Photocatalysts for Green Hydrogen Production
Ritam Chakraborty, Arpan Das
Semilocal PBE calculations can remove viable photocatalysts before screening by labeling narrow-gap semiconductors as metals. We address this failure mode in the Computational 2D M…

Why Fe doping kills photoluminescence in CsPbCl but not in CsPbBr: Role of midgap Fe 3 states and electron-phonon coupling
Arpan Das, Saptarshi Chakraborty
Understanding the impact of transition-metal doping on the optoelectronic properties of halide perovskite nanocrystals is essential for their rational design in photonic applicatio…

High-density, high-mobility ultrathin spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas at the polar/polar LaVO/KTaO interface: Insights from first-principles calculations
Arpan Das
The emergence of high-mobility two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) at oxide interfaces provides a fertile platform for exploring emergent quantum phenomena and next-generation o…
