The GW method is a standard method to calculate the electronic band structure from first principles. It has been applied to a large variety of semiconductors and insulators but less often to metallic systems, in particular, with respect to a self-consistent employment of the method. In this work, we take a look at all-electron quasiparticle self-consistent GW (QSGW) calculations for simple metals (alkali and alkaline earth metals) based on the full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave approach and compare the results to single-shot (i.

Moiré superlattices in atomically thin van der Waals heterostructures hold great promise for extended control of electronic and valleytronic lifetimes, the confinement of excitons in artificial moiré lattices and the formation of exotic quantum phases. Such moiré-induced emergent phenomena are particularly strong for interlayer excitons, where the hole and the electron are localized in different layers of the heterostructure. To exploit the full potential of correlated moiré and exciton physics, a thorough understanding of the ultrafast interlayer exciton formation process and the real-space wavefunction confinement is indispensable.

X-Ray and related spectroscopies are powerful probes of atomic, vibrational, and electronic structure. In order to unlock the full potential of such experimental techniques, accurate and efficient theoretical and computational approaches are essential. Here we review the status of a variety of first-principles and nearly first principles techniques for X-ray spectroscopies such as X-ray absorption, X-ray emission, and X-ray photoemission, with a focus on Green's function based methods.

The investigation of chemical and optoelectronic properties of halide perovskite layers and associated interfaces is crucial to harness the full potential of perovskite solar cells. Depth-profiling photoemission spectroscopy is a primary tool to study the chemical properties of halide perovskite layers at different scales from the surface to the bulk. The technique employs ionic argon beam thinning that provides accurate layer thicknesses.

Black phosphorus (BP), a new 2D material as a layered allotrope of phosphorus, has regained attention due to its outstanding semiconductor characteristics. However, the major hurdles of using few-layer BP for applications are its poor solution processability and low ambient stability. Here, we report a covalent modification of BP nanosheets by a chemical reaction with sodium alkoxide.
