Design of acoustic metamaterials through nonlinear programming [PDF]
, 2016 The dispersive wave propagation in a periodic metamaterial with tetrachiral topology and inertial local resonators is investigated. The Floquet-Bloch spectrum of the metamaterial is compared with that of the tetrachiral beam lattice material without ...

How many surface modes does one see on the boundary of a Dirac material? [PDF]
, 2020 We present full expressions for the surface part of polarization tensor of a Dirac fermion confined in a half-space in $3+1$ dimensions. We compare this tensor to the polarization tensor of eventual surface mode (which is a $2+1$ dimensional Dirac ...

Degeneracies and fluctuations of N\'e\`el skyrmions in confined geometries [PDF]
, 2015 The recent discovery of tunable Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions in layered magnetic materials with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy makes them promising candidates for stabilization and manipulation of skyrmions at elevated temperatures.

Looking for Design in Materials Design [PDF]
Nature Materials 3, 659 (2004), 2004 Despite great advances in computation, materials design is still science fiction. The construction of structure-property relations on the quantum scale will turn computational empiricism into true design.

Magnon contribution to unidirectional spin Hall magnetoresistance [PDF]
, 2019 We develop a model for the magnonic contribution to the unidirectional spin Hall magnetoresistance (USMR) of heavy metal/ferromagnetic insulator bilayer films.

Multiscale approaches to high efficiency photovoltaics [PDF]
, 2015 While renewable energies are achieving parity around the globe, efforts to reach higher solar cell efficiencies becomes ever more difficult as they approach the limiting efficiency.

Wavevector-dependent optical properties from wavevector-independent proper conductivity tensor
, 2020 We discuss the calculation of the refractive index by means of the ab initio scalar dielectric function and point out its inherent limitations. To overcome these, we start from the recently proposed fundamental, microscopic wave equation in materials in ...

Super Dielectric Materials [PDF]
, 2014 Evidence is provided that a class of materials with dielectric constants greater than 100,000, herein called super dielectric materials (SDM), can be generated readily from common, inexpensive materials.
