The first-principles band theory paradigm has been a key player not only in the process of
discovering new classes of topologically interesting materials, but also for identifying salient …

Silicene, a silicon analogue of graphene, has attracted increasing attention during the past
few years. As early as in 1994, the possibility of stage corrugation in the Si analogs of …

Recently, the bilayer perovskite nickelate La 3 Ni 2 O 7 has been reported to show evidence
of high-temperature superconductivity (SC) under a moderate pressure of about 14 GPa. To …

Free-standing silicene, a silicon analogue of graphene, has a buckled honeycomb lattice
and, because of its Dirac bandstructure, combined with its sensitive surface, offers the …

We model the newly synthesized magic-angle-twisted bilayer graphene superconductor with
two px, y-like Wannier orbitals on the superstructure honeycomb lattice, where the hopping …

Since the discovery of graphene just over a decade ago, 2D materials have been a central
focus of materials research and engineering because of their unique properties and …

Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been serving as one the most critical
components of fast growing technologies, such as the mobile electronic and electrified …

Silicon‐based biomaterials play an indispensable role in biomedical engineering; however,
due to the lack of intrinsic functionalities of silicon, the applications of silicon‐based …

Cancer represents one of the main causes of death in the world; hence the development of
more specific approaches for its diagnosis and treatment is urgently needed in clinical …

A highly unconventional superconducting state with a spin-singlet $ d_ {x^ 2-y^ 2}\pm {\rm i}
d_ {xy} $-wave, or chiral d-wave symmetry has recently been suggested to emerge from …
