Computational study of optical absorption spectra of helicenes as applied to strain sensing
Veera Sundararaghavan, Vikas Varshney, Davide Simone
Helicenes, a class of organic molecules consisting of ortho-fused benzene rings in a spring-like configuration have found several interesting applications in nonlinear optical mate…
How to Characterize Thermal Transport Capability of 2D Materials Fairly? - Sheet Thermal Conductance and the Choice of Thickness
Xufei Wu, Vikas Varshney, Jonghoon Lee +3
Ever since the discovery of the record-high thermal conductivity of single layer graphene, thermal transport capability of monolayer 2D materials has been under constant spotlight.…
Hydrogenation of Penta-Graphene Leads to Unexpected Large Improvement in Thermal Conductivity
Xufei Wu, Vikas Varshney, Jonghoon Lee +4
Penta-graphene (PG) has been identified as a novel 2D material with an intrinsic bandgap, which makes it especially promising for electronics applications. In this work, we use fir…
Thermal properties of graphene: Fundamentals and applications
Eric Pop, Vikas Varshney, Ajit K. Roy
Graphene is a two-dimensional (2D) material with over 100-fold anisotropy of heat flow between the in-plane and out-of-plane directions. High in-plane thermal conductivity is due t…
Coupling Transitions in Helical Polymers: The Case of the Helix-Coil and Coil-Globule Transitions
Vikas Varshney, Gustavo A. Carri
We explore the coupling between the helix-coil and coil-globule transitions of a helical polymer using Monte Carlo simulations. A very rich state diagram is found. Each state is ch…
A Monte Carlo Simulation Study of the Mechanical and Conformational Properties of Networks of Helical Polymers. I General Concepts
Gustavo A. Carri, Richard Batman, Vikas Varshney +1
We study the mechanical and conformational properties of networks of helical polymers with a combination of Monte Carlo simulations based on the Wang-Landau algorithm and the Three…
