Two-Dimensional Boron Monolayer Sheets

TL;DR: From an extensive structural search using the first-principles particle-swarm optimization (PSO) global algorithm, two boron monolayers (α(1)- and β(1-sheet) are predicted to be the most stable α- and β-types of borons sheets, respectively.

Electronic structure and optical properties of monoclinic clinobisvanite BiVO4

TL;DR: Density functional theory calculations were adopted in the present work, and it was found that its slightly distorted crystal structure enhances the lone-pair impact of Bi 6s states, leading to the special optical properties and excellent photocatalytic activities.

Pressure-Induced Phase Transformation, Reversible Amorphization, and Anomalous Visible Light Response in Organolead Bromide Perovskite

TL;DR: The results not only show that hydrostatic pressure may provide an applicable tool for the organohalide perovskites based photovoltaic device functioning as switcher or controller, but also shed light on the exploration of more amorphous organometal composites as potential light absorber.

Efficient pseudopotentials for plane-wave calculations

TL;DR: It is found that these pseudopotentials are extremely efficient for the cases where the plane-wave expansion has a slow convergence, in particular, for systems containing first-row elements, transition metals, and rare-earth elements.

Ground state of the electron gas by a stochastic method

TL;DR: An exact stochastic simulation of the Schroedinger equation for charged Bosons and Fermions was used to calculate the correlation energies, to locate the transitions to their respective crystal phases at zero temperature within 10%, and to establish the stability at intermediate densities of a ferromagnetic fluid of electrons.
