Logarithmically Divergent Vacuum Energy in Effective Field Theory

Jonathan Sullivan-Wood, Craig Pryor

The vacuum energy density due to a single quantum field diverges quarticly with the ultraviolet cutoff , in wild disagreement with the value implied by cosmological observations…

Fine structure splitting cancellation in highly asymmetric InAs/InP droplet epitaxy quantum dots

N. R. S. van Venrooij, A. R. da Cruz, R. S. R. Gajjella +3

We find the single exciton's fine structure splitting (FSS), which splits its degenerate ground state manifold into singlets, nearly vanishes in highly asymmetric quantum dots due…

Wurtzite/Zincblende Crystal Phase GaAs Heterostructures in the Tight Binding Approximation

Joseph Sink, Craig Pryor

Crystal phase semiconductor heterostructures allow for electron confinement without uncertainties caused by chemical intermixing found in material heterostructures and are candidat…

Empirical Tight-Binding Parameters for Wurtzite group III-V(non-Nitride) and IV Materials

Craig Pryor, Joseph Sink

Many commonly used nearest neighbor tight binding models for cubic semiconductors often result in inaccurate band structures when transferred to hexagonal polytypes. The resulting…

Atomistic theory

Craig Pryor, Mats-Erik Pistol

Pseudopotentials, tight-binding models, and theory have stood for many years as the standard techniques for computing electronic states in crystalline solids. Here we pr…

Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of the Lonsdaleite Phase of Si, Ge and diamond

Amrit De, Craig E. Pryor

Crystalline semiconductors may exist in different polytypic phases with significantly different electronic and optical properties. In this paper, we calculate the electronic struct…
