Journal ArticleDOI
False-positive and false-negative assignments of topological insulators in density functional theory and hybrids
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the case of false positives due to the incorrect choice of crystal structures and address the relevance of choice of the crystal structure with respect to the ground-state one and thermodynamical instability in terms of binary competing phases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Band offsets at the CdS/CuInSe2 heterojunction
Su-Huai Wei,Alex Zunger +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, first principles calculations yield for CdS/CuInSe2 ΔEc=+0.31 eV, hence, a type-I band alignment is assumed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peculiar many-body effects revealed in the spectroscopy of highly charged quantum dots
M. Ediger,Gabriel Bester,Antonio Badolato,Pierre Petroff,Khaled Karrai,Alex Zunger,Richard J. Warburton +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Coulomb effects in self-assembled quantum dots were analyzed by interpreting experimental spectra with an atomistic calculation, and they were shown to be tunable in situ by controlling the quantum dot charge from +6e to −6e.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of Excitonic Spectra and Entanglement Engineering in Dot Molecules
TL;DR: Results of correlated pseudopotential calculations of an exciton in a pair of vertically stacked InGaAs/GaAs dots are presented and ways to spectroscopically identify and maximize the entanglement of exciton states are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-consistent LCAO calculation of the electronic properties of graphite. I. The regular graphite lattice
TL;DR: In this article, the electronic properties of the regular graphite lattice are investigated within self-consistent LCAO (linear combination of atomic orbitals) scheme based as a modified extended-H\"uckel approximation.
