TLDR
In this article, a method for generating sets of special points in the Brillouin zone which provides an efficient means of integrating periodic functions of the wave vector is given, where the integration can be over the entire zone or over specified portions thereof.
Abstract
A method is given for generating sets of special points in the Brillouin zone which provides an efficient means of integrating periodic functions of the wave vector. The integration can be over the entire Brillouin zone or over specified portions thereof. This method also has applications in spectral and density-of-state calculations. The relationships to the Chadi-Cohen and Gilat-Raubenheimer methods are indicated.

First-principles analysis of electron-phonon interactions in graphene

TL;DR: In this article, the electron-phonon interaction in monolayer graphene is investigated using density-functional perturbation theory, and the results indicate that the electronphonons interaction strength is of comparable magnitude for all four in-plane phonon branches and must be considered simultaneously.

BoltzWann: A code for the evaluation of thermoelectric and electronic transport properties with a maximally-localized Wannier functions basis

TL;DR: A new code to evaluate thermoelectric and electronic transport properties of extended systems with a maximally-localized Wannier function basis set is presented, solving the semiclassical Boltzmann transport equations for the homogeneous infinite system in the constant relaxation-time approximation.

Understanding the high photocatalytic activity of (B, Ag)-codoped TiO2 under solar-light irradiation with XPS, solid-state NMR, and DFT calculations.

TL;DR: It was found that the [B(int.)-O-Ag] units could trap the photo induced electron to form a unique intermediate structure in the (B, Ag)-codoped TiO(2) during the irradiation, which is responsible for the photoinduced shifts of the B 1s and Ag 3d peaks observed in the in situ XPS spectra.

Direct observation of an abrupt insulator-to-metal transition in dense liquid deuterium

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show direct observation of an abrupt insulator-to-metal transition in dense liquid deuterium, which may constrain the region of hydrogen-helium immiscibility and the boundary layer pressure in standard models of the internal structure of gas-giant planets.
