  • Kibis, O. V.; Iorsh, I. V.; Shelykh, Ivan (IOP Publishing, 2020-04-23)
    We demonstrate theoretically that the interaction of electrons in the 2D materials (gapped graphene and transition metal dichalchogenide monolayer) with a strong off-resonant electromagnetic field substantially renormalizes their band structure, including ...
  • Přikryl, Jan (University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Earth Sciences, 2018-05)
    Fluid-rock interaction is an important process in nature, and in many industrial fields. Fluid-rock interaction can be utilized to sequester industrial gases like CO2 and H2S in porous rocks of geothermal systems. The gases are re-injected, together ...
