Van der Waals density functional: Self-consistent potential and the nature of the van der Waals bond

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the exchange-correlation potential corresponding to the nonlocal van der Waals density functional and used it for a self-consistent calculation of the ground state properties of a number of van derWaals complexes as well as crystalline silicon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Porous Graphene as the Ultimate Membrane for Gas Separation

TL;DR: Porous graphene sheets are proposed as one-atom-thin, highly efficient, and highly selective membranes for gas separation, which could have widespread impact on numerous energy and technological applications; including carbon sequestration, fuel cells, and gas sensors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coupling of Crystal Structure and Magnetism in the Layered, Ferromagnetic Insulator CrI3

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the crystallographic and magnetic properties of single crystals of CrI3, an easily cleavable, layered and insulating ferromagnet with a Curie temperature of 61 K.
Journal ArticleDOI

van der Waals forces in density functional theory: a review of the vdW-DF method

TL;DR: A density functional theory that accounts for van der Waals interactions in condensed matter, materials physics, chemistry, and biology is reviewed and the value of the vdW-DF method as a general-purpose method, not only for dispersion bound systems, but also in densely packed systems where these types of interactions are traditionally thought to be negligible.
