First-principles modeling of ferroelectric capacitors presents several technical challenges, due to the coexistence of metallic electrodes, long-range electrostatic forces and short-range interface chemistry. Here we show how these aspects…

The single-layered perovskite Ca$_2$RuO$_4$, characterized by a 4$d^4$ electron configuration, has been studied from first principles using density functional theory (DFT) using the generalized gradient approximation, with inclusion of…

Noncollinear (NC) magnetism and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) are indispensable for predictive ab initio materials simulations with pronounced relativistic effects and magnetic frustration, yet they significantly increase the cost of…

A microscopic magnetic model for the spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain compound CuSe2O5 is developed based on the results of a joint experimental and theoretical study. Magnetic susceptibility and specific heat data give evidence for quasi-1D…

Ternary semiconductor CuYS2 is studied by using the first-principles methods in the density functional theory (DFT) framework. The structural, electronic, optical and elastic properties were calculated at the ambient and elevated…

We report the microscopic magnetic model for the spin-1/2 Heisenberg system CdCu2(BO3)2, one of the few quantum magnets showing the 1/2-magnetization plateau. Recent neutron diffraction experiments on this compound [M. Hase et al., Phys.…

We present a microscopic model of the spin-gap quantum magnet (CuCl)LaNb2O7 that was previously suggested as a realization of the spin-1/2 frustrated square lattice. Taking advantage of the precise atomic positions from recent crystal…

Permanent magnets containing rare earth elements are essential components for the electrification of society. Ce(Co1-xCux)5 permanent magnets are a model system known for their substantial coercivity, yet the underlying mechanism remains…

The spin-1/2 Cu2+ ions of LiCuVO4 form one-dimensional chains along the b-direction, and the spin frustration in LiCuVO4 is described in terms of the nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic exchange J1 and the next-nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic…

Using first-principles DFT calculations, we analyze the origin of the different crystal structures, optical and magnetic properties of two basic families of layered fluoride materials with formula A2MF4 (M = Ag, Cu, Ni, Mn; A = K, Cs, Rb).…
