Thermomechanical properties of honeycomb lattices from internal-coordinates p...
Lattice dynamics in low-dimensional materials and, in particular, the quadratic behaviour of the flexural acoustic modes play a fundamental role in their thermomechanical and... -
Excited-state properties for extended systems: efficient hybrid density funct...
Time-dependent density functional theory has become state-of-the-art for describing photophysical and photochemical processes in extended materials due to its affordable cost.... -
Improving the silicon interactions of GFN-xTB
This record addresses inaccuracies in the widely-used GFN-xTB model when it comes to the description of organosilicon compounds. Here, an ab initio reference data set of 10000... -
Observation of fractional edge excitations in nanographene spin chains
Fractionalization is a phenomenon in which strong interactions in a quantum system drive the emergence of excitations with quantum numbers that are absent in the building... -
Data-driven simulation and characterisation of gold nanoparticles melting
We develop efficient, accurate, transferable, and interpretable machine learning force fields for Au nanoparticles, based on data gathered from Density Functional Theory... -
Quantifying photoinduced polaronic distortions in inorganic lead halide perov...
The development of next generation perovskite-based optoelectronic devices relies critically on the understanding of the interaction between charge carriers and the polar... -
Pushing the limits of the donor-acceptor copolymer strategy for intramolecula...
Donor–acceptor (D–A) copolymers have shown great potential for intramolecular singlet fission (iSF). Nonetheless, very few design principles exist for optimizing these systems... -
Stacking of charge-density waves in 2H-NbSe₂ bilayers
We employ ab-initio electronic-structure calculations to investigate the charge-density waves and periodic lattice distortions in bilayer 2H-NbSe₂. We demonstrate that the... -
On-surface synthesis and characterization of super-nonazethrene
This record contains data to support the findings discussed in our recent work on the synthesis and characterization of super-nonazethrene. Beginning with the early work of Clar... -
Prediction of phonon-mediated superconductivity with high critical temperatur...
Two-dimensional superconductors attract great interest both for their fundamental physics and for their potential applications, especially in the rapidly growing field of... -
Hidden orders and (anti-)magnetoelectric effects in Cr₂O₃ and α-Fe₂O₃
We present ab initio calculations of hidden magnetoelectric multipolar order in Cr₂O₃ and its iron-based analogue, α-Fe₂O₃. We show the presence of hidden... -
Revealing hidden magneto-electric multipoles using Compton scattering
Magneto-electric multipoles, which are odd under both space-inversion 𝓘 and time-reversal 𝓣 symmetries, are fundamental in understanding and characterizing magneto-electric... -
Phonon self-energy corrections: To screen, or not to screen
First-principles calculations of phonons are often based on the adiabatic approximation and on Brillouin-zone samplings that might not always be sufficient to capture the... -

Reversible dehalogenation in on-surface aryl-aryl coupling
The record contains the data to support the findings of our recent work on reversibility of the dehalogenation process in on-surface aryl-aryl coupling. In the emerging field of... -
Probing temperature responsivity of microgels and its interplay with a solid ...
Super-resolution microscopy has become a powerful tool to investigate the internal structure of complex colloidal and polymeric systems, such as microgels, at the nanometer... -
Donor-acceptor-donor "hot exciton" triads for high reverse intersystem crossi...
Hot exciton materials have the potential to improve the quantum efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) by promoting high Reversed InterSystem Crossing (hRISC)... -
Multicellularity of delicate topological insulators
Being Wannierizable is not the end of the story for topological insulators. We introduce a family of topological insulators that would be considered trivial in the paradigm set... -
Anti-symmetric Compton scattering in LiNiPO4: Towards a direct probe of the m...
We present a combined theoretical and experimental investigation of the anti-symmetric Compton profile in LiNiPO4 as a possible probe for magneto-electric toroidal moments....
