Ab initio calculations employing the coupled cluster method CCSD(T), in conjunction with a small-core pseudopotential for the cadmium atom, have been employed to construct a near-equilibrium potential energy function (PEF) and an electric dipole moment function (EDMF) for CdH(2). The significance of the spin-orbit interaction was checked and found to be of minor importance. Making use of two pieces of experimental information for the most abundant isotopomer (114)CdH(2), we obtained a refined PEF, which, within variational calculations of rovibrational states and wave functions, reproduces all available experimental data (S. Yu, A.Shayesteh, and P. F. Bernath, J. Chem. Phys. 2005, 122, 194301) very well. In addition, numerous predictions are made. In particular, the nu(2) band origins for (114)CdH(2) and (114)CdD(2) are predicted at 605.9 and 436.9 cm(-1), respectively, and the state perturbing the e parity levels of the (0,0(0),1) state of (114)CdH(2) at J = 12-17 is identified as the (0,3(3),0) state. Assignments for further perturbations found in the emission spectra are given as well.

The search for primordial black holes (PBHs) with masses M≪M_{⊙} is motivated by natural early-Universe production mechanisms and that PBHs can be dark matter. For M≲10^{14}  kg, the PBH density is constrained by null searches for their expected Hawking emission (HE), the characteristics of which are, however, sensitive to new states beyond the standard model. If there exists a large number of spin-0 particles in nature, PBHs can, through HE, develop and maintain non-negligible spins, modifying the visible HE.

In hybrid systems where nanowires are proximity-coupled with superconductors, the low-energy theory fails to determine the topological phase with Majorana fermion (MF) when the magnetic field or proximity coupling is much stronger. To overcome this limitation, we propose a holistic approach that defines MF by considering both the motion of electrons in the nanowire and the quasiparticle excitations in the superconductor. This approach transcends the constraints of low-energy theory and offers broad applicability.

The bismuth monolayer has recently been experimentally identified as a novel platform for the investigation of two-dimensional single-element ferroelectric system. Here, we model the potential energy surface of a bismuth monolayer by employing a message-passing neural network and achieve an error smaller than 1.2 meV per atom.

Cooling of Semiconductor Devices via Quantum Tunneling.

Classical transport of electrons and holes in nanoscale devices leads to heating that severely limits performance, reliability, and efficiency. In contrast, recent theory suggests that interband quantum tunneling and subsequent thermalization of carriers with the lattice results in local cooling of devices. However, internal cooling in nanoscale devices is largely unexplored.
