Selenium is a crucial earth-abundant and non-toxic semiconductor with a wide range of applications across the semiconductor industries. Selenium has drawn attention from scientific communities for its wide range of applicability: from photovoltaics to imaging devices. Its usage as a photosensitive material largely involves the synthesis of the amorphous phase (a-Se) via various experimental techniques. However, the ground state crystalline phase of this material, known as the trigonal selenium (textit{t}-Se), is not extensively studied for its optimum electronic and optical properties. In this work, we present density functional theory (DFT) based systematic studies on the ultra-thin $(10overline{1}0)$ surface slabs of textit{t}-Se. We report the surface energies, work function, electronic and optical properties as a function of number of layers for $(10overline{1}0)$ surface slabs to access its suitability for applications as a photosensitive material.

We report on the heteroepitaxial stabilization of YCrO3 ultra-thin films on LSAT (001) substrate. Using a combination of resonant X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and atomic multiplet cluster calculation, the electronic structure of YCrO3 thin fil
m was investigated. Polarization dependent Cr L3,2 edge XAS measurement reveal the presence of an anomalous orbital polarization uncharacteristic of a 3d3 electronic system. Atomic multiplet calculations demonstrate the critical importance of charge transfer energy, Coulomb correlation strength and hopping interaction in stabilizing this unusual orbital polarized state likely connected to the bulk multiferroicity.
The electronic band structure and elastic properties of the Cd${}_{16}$Se${}_{15}$Te solid state solution in the framework of the density functional theory calculations are investigated. The structure of the sample is constructed on the original bina
ry compound CdSe, which crystallizes in the cubic phase. Based on the electronic band structure, the effective mass of electron, heavy hole, light hole, spin-orbit effective masses and reduced mass in G point are calculated. In addition, the exciton binding energy, refractive index and high-frequency dielectric constant are calculated. The Young modulus, shear modulus, bulk modulus and Poisson ratio are calculated theoretically. Based on the results of elastic coefficients, the value of acoustic velocity and Debye temperature is obtained.
The performance of perovskite solar cells recently exceeded 15% solar-to-electricity conversion efficiency for small-area devices. The fundamental properties of the active absorber layers, hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites formed from mixing metal
and organic halides [textit{e.g.} (NH$_4$)PbI$_3$ and (CH$_3$NH$_3$)PbI$_3$], are largely unknown. The materials are semiconductors with direct band gaps at the boundary of the first Brillouin zone. The calculated dielectric response and band gaps show an orientation dependence, with a low barrier for rotation of the organic cations. Due to the electric dipole of the methylammonium cation, a photoferroic effect may be accessible, which could enhance carrier collection.
Using first-principles calculations within the generalized gradient approximation, we predicted the lattice parameters, elastic constants, vibrational properties, and electronic structure of cementite (Fe3C). Its nine single-crystal elastic constants
were obtained by computing total energies or stresses as a function of applied strain. Furthermore, six of them were determined from the initial slopes of the calculated longitudinal and transverse acoustic phonon branches along the [100], [010] and [001] directions. The three methods agree well with each other, the calculated polycrystalline elastic moduli are also in good overall agreement with experiments. Our calculations indicate that Fe3C is mechanically stable. The experimentally observed high elastic anisotropy of Fe3C is also confirmed by our study. Based on electronic density of states and charge density distribution, the chemical bonding in Fe3C was analyzed and was found to exhibit a complex mixture of metallic, covalent, and ionic characters.
We study adsorption sites of a single Xe adatom on Nb(110) surface using a density functional theory approach: The on-top site is the most favorable position for the adsorption. We compare the binding features of the present study to earlier studies
of a Xe adatom on close-packed (111) surface of face-centered cubic metals. The different features are attributed through a microscopic picture to the less than half filled d-states in Nb.
