INTRODUCTION: Density functional theory (DFT) is a widely used method for calculating the electronic properties of materials. The method is based on the idea of approximating the many-electron wave ...
The video describes melting processes of an electron Wigner crystal into electron liquid phases. As the electron density (\nu, a measure of number of electrons in a magnetic field, is controlled by ...
Phonons – the quasiparticle describing lattice vibrations in solids – directly dictates various properties of solid state systems, such as the thermal conductivity, electron mobility, structural ...
