Our colleagues Dino Novko and Vito Despoja have published a paper in Physical Review Research in a Letter format. The authors present a fully ab initio microscopic theory that is able to simulate a formation of exciton polaritons in realistic two-dimensional microcavity devices.

Our colleagues Marin Petrović and Marko Kralj in collaboration with researchers from several institutions (Universities of Siegen, Cologne and Münster in Germany, and King Abdullah University in Saudi Arabia) published an article in the prestigious journal ACS Nano, on the controlled synthesis of two different phases of monolayer tantalum sulfide.

Our colleagues Dino Novko, Vito Despoja, and Branko Gumhalter, in collaboration with the scientists from the University of Pittsburgh and Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, have published a paper as Editors’ Suggestion in Physical Review B. The authors present a rigorous theory to explain a novel plasmonic photoemission feature in silver.

Our colleague Marin Petrović has published a paper in the prestigious journal ACS Nano, demonstrating a scalable route for the synthesis of 2D boron sheets of single-atom thickness. The paper is a result of collaborative work with researchers from the University of Duisburg-Essen and the University of Cologne. The presented findings provide new opportunities for fabrication of large, high-quality layers of emerging 2D materials.

Our colleague Dino Novko, in collaboration with Ivor Lončarić from Ruđer Bošković Institute and with scientists based in Hong Kong and Guangzhou (China), has published a paper in the prestigious journal Advanced Energy Materials. The authors investigate the role of electron-phonon interactions in ultrafast hot‐carrier cooling processes for several hybrid lead halide perovskites by employing transient absorption spectroscopy and density functional perturbation theory.
