  2. 2. Connected by voids: Interactions and screening in sparse matter

    Author : Kristian Berland; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Using theory and computations, we study structural and electronic properties of nanoscale systems where regions of low density are important for response and function. Materials with such properties are called sparse matter. Examples include assemblies of organic molecules and layered structures like graphite. READ MORE
