    • Cluster assembled silicon-lithium nanostructures: a nanowire confined inside a carbon nanotube 
      Orellana, Walter; Pino Ríos, Ricardo; Yánez, Osvaldo; Vásquez Espinal, Alejandro; Peccati, Francesca; Contreras García, Julia; Cárdenas, Carlos; Tiznado, William (Frontiers Media, 2021)
      We computationally explore an alternative to stabilize one-dimensional (1D) silicon-lithium nanowires (NWs). The Li12Si9 Zintl phase exhibits the NW 1 ∞[Li6Si5], combined with Y-shaped Si4 structures. Interestingly, ...
    • Persistent planar tetracoordinate carbon in global minima structures of silicon-carbon clusters 
      Leyva Parra, Luis; Inostroza, Diego; Yáñez Osses, Osvaldo; Cruz, Julio César; Garza, Jorge; García, Víctor; Tiznado, William (MDPI, 2022)
      Recently, we reported a series of global minima whose structures consist of carbon rings decorated with heavier group 14 elements. Interestingly, these structures feature planar tetracoordinate carbons (ptCs) and result ...
