AbstractCoulomb drag in double layer graphene systems separated by an h-BN interlayer allows probing of the electron-electron interactions in the effective limit of zero layer separation. Although these interactions can be influenced by plasmons, phonons and exchange and correlation effects, these excitations have never been studied altogether, missing the effects of their coupling on the drag physics. Here we study theoretically the effects of these quasiparticles and their coupling, including also the effects of the electronic exchange and correlation, and demonstrate that the drag resistivity can attain a maximum value at room temperature and beyond, where hybridized plasmon-phonon modes contribute significantly. In particular, the hybridization of the plasmons with the hyperbolic phonons of h-BN, confined within the reststrahlen bands, enhance the drag resistivity. This study paves the way for the exploration of novel many-body physics phenomena in systems coupled through emerging 2D hyperbolic materials.

An external electrostatic field of the order of a few tens of a volt per nanometer causes significant changes in the electron density distribution near a metal surface. Because of differing electronic distributions and varying responses of electrons to the applied field for various metals, the resulting local field distribution in the close vicinity of the surface should depend on the electronic properties of the particular metal, even for flat surfaces. Field-free and field-modified electron density distributions for different metal surfaces were calculated using the functional integration method. This approach enables the exchange-correlation effects to be correctly considered and makes it possible to account for the proper field-effect for broad field ranges without using the perturbation theory. The results of calculations are compared with the field-ion microscopic observations.

<p>The advent of ever more powerful excited-state electronic structure methods has lead to a tremendous increase in the predictive power of computation but it has also rendered the analysis of these computations more and more challenging and time-consuming. TheoDORE tackles this problem through providing tools for post-processing excited-state computations, which automate repetitive tasks and provide rigorous and reproducible descriptors. Interfaces are available for ten different quantum chemistry codes and a range of excited-state methods implemented therein. This article provides an overview of three popular functionalities within TheoDORE, a fragment-based analysis for assigning state character, the computation of exciton sizes for measuring charge transfer, and the natural transition orbitals used not only for visualisation but also for quantifying multiconfigurational character. Using the examples of an organic push-pull chromophore and a transition metal complex, it is shown how these tools can be used for a rigorous and automated assignment of excited-state character. In the case of a conjugated polymer, we venture beyond the limits of the traditional molecular orbital picture to uncover spatial correlation effects using electron-hole correlation plots and conditional densities.</p>

We study ferromagnetic ordering and microscopic inhomogeneity in tensile strained LaCoO_33 using numerical simulations. We argue that both phenomena originate from effective superexchange interactions between atoms in the high-spin (HS) state mediated by the intermediate-spin excitations. We derive a model of the HS excitation as a bare atomic state dressed by electron and electron-hole fluctuations on the neighbor atoms. We construct a series of approximations to account for electron correlation effects responsible for HS fluctuations and magnetic exchange. The obtained amplitudes and directional dependence of magnetic couplings between the “dressed” HS states show a qualitative agreement with experimental observations and provide a new physical picture of LaCoO_33 films.
