- Surveys have shown that super-Earth and Neptune-mass exoplanets are more frequent than gas giants around low-mass stars, as predicted by the core accretion theory of planet formation. We report the discovery of a giant planet around the very-low-mass star GJ 3512, as determined by optical and near-infrared radial-velocity observations. The planet has a minimum mass of 0.46 Jupiter masses, very high for such a small host star, and an eccentric 204-day orbit. Dynamical models show that the high eccentricity is most likely due to planet-planet interactions. We use simulations to demonstrate that the GJ 3512 planetary system challenges generally accepted formation theories, and that it puts constraints on the planet accretion and migration rates. Disk instabilities may be more efficient in forming planets than previously thought.

- The electronic properties and the optical absorption of lead iodide (PbI2) have been investigated experimentally by means of optical absorption and spectroscopic ellipsometry, and theoretically by a full-potential linear muffin-tin-orbital method. PbI2 has been recognized as a very promising detector material with a large technological applicability. Its band-gap energy as a function of temperature has also been measured by optical absorption. The temperature dependence has been fitted by two different relations, and a discussion of these fittings is given.

- We present the results of an investigation on the pressure behavior of structural, bonding and vibrational properties of β- and γ-C3N4 phases. Emphasis is focused on the trends of the calculated properties along the A3N4 (A: C, Si, Ge) family. Geometry optimizations and electronic structure calculations are carried out in the framework of the local density functional theory using a planewave-pseudopotential scheme. The equilibrium cell geometry, the isothermal bulk modulus and its pressure derivatives have been evaluated for the two phases in a pressure range up to 400 GPa. The Bader’s Atoms in Molecules formalism is applied to characterize the chemical bonding and the atomic contributions to the bulk compressibility in β- and γ-A3N4 crystals. The calculated stability diagram reveals the occurrence of a hypothetical β-C3N4→γ-C3N4 phase transition around 370 GPa. Γ-point harmonic vibrational modes are computed at selected pressures within the density functional perturbation theory approach. In agreement with recent theoretical calculations, the comparison of the computed Raman vibrational frequencies with experimental estimations for β-C3N4 raises doubts on a previously reported synthesis of this structure. Pressure effects on the vibrational frequencies inform of a reduction of the P63∕m symmetry of the β phase at pressures around 60 GPa and contribute to look into the mechanical stability of the γ phase.

- Robust room temperature ferromagnetism is obtained in single phase Gallium Phosphide doped with Cu2+ prepared by simple solid state reaction route. The saturation magnetization at 300 K is 1.5 x 10(-2) emu/g and the coercivity was found to be 125 Oe. A strong ferromagnetic resonance signal confirms the long range magnetic order which persists to temperatures as high as 739 K. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) indicate that Cu is in a +2 state. Ab initio calculations also show that the ferromagnetic ordering is energetically favorable in Cu doped GaP. When the spin-orbit coupling is included we get an enhanced total magnetic moment of 0.31 mu(B) with a local moment on Cu 0.082 and on P 0.204 mu(B). per atom.

- We report on a density functional theory calculation of the electronic structure and optical properties of gamma-Al2O3. We have made a comparison between the optical and electronic properties of the alpha and gamma phases of alumina. The calculated bulk modulus of the gamma phase is slightly lower than that of the a phase. The calculated static dielectric function and the optical constant of the gamma phase are very close to those of the alpha phase.

- Using the density functional theory, formulated within the framework of the exact muffin-tin orbitals method, we have calculated the surface stress for the (111) free surfaces of the fcc 4d and 5d transition metals. Good agreement is obtained with the available ab initio data for Pd, Ir, and Au, while for Pt we predict a surface stress, which is about 33% lower compared to former theoretical results. The present surface stress values for the 4d and 5d fcc metals show the typical trend characteristic for the cohesive or surface energies of d series.
