Electronic structure of the high and low pressure polymorphs of MgSiN$_{2}$
We have performed density functional calculations on the group II-IV nitride MgSiN$_{2}$. At a pressure of about 20~GPa the ground state wurtzite derived MgSiN$_{2}$ structure (LP-MgSiN$_{2}$) transforms into a rock-salt derived structure (HP-MgSiN$_{2}$)

Weakly coupled quantum dots in the Pauli spin blockade regime are considered with respect to spin-dependent transport. By attaching one half-metallic and one non-magnetic lead, the Pauli spin blockade if formed by a pure triplet state with spin moment ...

Coherent spin rotations in open driven double quantum dots
We analyze the charge and spin dynamics in a DC biased double quantum dot driven by crossed DC and AC magnetic fields. In this configuration, spatial delocalization due to inter-dot tunnel competes with intra-dot spin rotations induced by the time ...

Density functional theory study of the electronic structure of fluorite Cu$_{2}$Se
We have investigated the electronic structure of fluorite Cu$_{2}$Se using density functional theory calculations within the LDA, PBE and AM05 approximations as well as with the non-local hybrid PBE0 and HSE approximations.

DNA secondary structures are associated with recombination in major Plasmodium falciparum variable surface antigen gene families [PDF]
Many bacterial, viral and parasitic pathogens undergo antigenic variation to counter host immune defense mechanisms. In Plasmodium falciparum, the most lethal of human malaria parasites, switching of var gene expression results in alternating expression ...
