We review recent progress in understanding the different spatial broken symmetries that
occur in the normal states of the family of charge-transfer solids (CTS) that exhibit …

We present a valence transition model for electron-and hole-doped cuprates, within which
there occurs a discrete jump in ionicity Cu 2+→ Cu 1+ in both families upon doping, at or …

Using scanning tunneling microscopy and electronic structure calculations, we investigated
the assembly and electronic properties of picene molecules on the Ag (100), Ag (111), and …

By first principles method, we have determined the geometric configuration of K/Ba-codoped
phenanthrene based on the formation energy calculations, and systematically investigated …

We look for unifying aspects behind superconductivity in aromatic hydrocarbon and
fullerene family K $ _3 $ X (X: picene,.. p-terphenyl,.. C $ _ {60} $). Aromatic hydrocarbon …

In this paper we present a computational study of linear optical absorption in phenacene
class of polyaromatic hydrocarbons. For the purpose, we have employed a correlated …

In this work I employ quantum and mixed quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical
techniques to describe proton transfer in solvated molecular ions. I explore the role of …

Determination of the mechanism of correlated-electron superconductivity (SC) has turned
out to be the hardest problem in condensed matter physics. After nearly three decades of …

In this work we study the effect of long range electron-electron correlations on the behavior
of the normal state of metal-intercalated phenacene crystals. While the individual …
