Heterostructures made of transition metal oxides are new tailor-made materials which are attracting much attention. We have constructed a 6-band k.p Hamiltonian and used it within the envelope function method to calculate the subband…
The $\mathbf{k}\cdot\mathbf{p}$ method, combined with group theory, is an efficient approach to obtain the low energy effective Hamiltonians of crystalline materials. Although the Hamiltonian coefficients are written as matrix elements of…
We present a semi-empirical effective Hamiltonian to capture effects of disorder associated with Ba and Sr cations occupying $A$ sites in (Ba$_{x}$Sr$_{1-x}$)TiO$_3$ on its ferroelectric phase transition. Averaging between the parameters of…
A general approach is derived for constructing an effective spin-orbit Hamiltonian for nonmagnetic materials, which is useful for calculating spin-dependent properties near an arbitrary point in momentum space with pseudospin degeneracy.…
The 5$d$ series semimetallic Dirac nodal-line perovskite SrIrO$_3$ presents a promising system to study the interplay between spin-orbit coupling and electron-electron interactions in the epitaxial thin film geometry. The competition…
In contrast to the previous reports that the divalent perovskite SrCrO$_3$ was believed to be cubic structure and nonmagnetic metal, recent measurements suggest coexistence of majority tetragonally distorted weak antiferromagnetic phase and…
Double perovskites like Sr$_2$FeMoO$_6$ are materials with half-metallic ground states and ferrimagnetic T$_{\rm{c}}$'s well above room temperature. This paper is the second of our comprehensive theory for half metallic double perovskites.…
The perovskite crystal BaTiO3 is modeled using a first-principles based effective Hamiltonian and molecular dynamics simulations are performed to estimate the pyroelectric response. The electrocaloric temperature change, \DeltaT, is…
The phase-transition sequence of a ferroelectric perovskite such as BaTiO_3 can be simulated by computing the statistical mechanics of a first-principles derived effective Hamiltonian [Zhong, Vanderbilt and Rabe, Phys. Rev. Lett. 73, 1861…
Several puzzling aspects of interplay of the experimental lattice distortion and the the magnetic properties of four narrow $t_{2g}$-band perovskite oxides (YTiO$_3$, LaTiO$_3$, YVO$_3$, and LaVO$_3$) are clarified using results of…
We formulate a superexchange theory of insulating double-perovskite compounds such as Sr$_2$FeWO$_6$. An effective spin-orbital Hamiltonian is derived in the strong coupling limit of Hubbard model for d-electrons on Fe and W ions. The…
The effective Hamiltonian for perovskite titanates is derived by taking into account the three-fold degeneracy of $t_{2g}$ orbitals and the strong electron-electron interactions. The magnetic and orbital ordered phases are studied in the…
A method for the calculation of the temperature dependence of dielectric and piezoelectric responses, based on the use of a first-principles effective Hamiltonian, is described. Results are presented for the ferroelectric perovskite PbTiO3.…
A fully ab initio scheme based on quantum chemical wavefunction methods is used to investigate the correlated multiorbital electronic structure of a 3d-metal compound, LaCoO3. The strong short-range electron correlations, involving both Co…
We introduce and investigate an effective five-band model for $t_{2g}$ and $e_g$ electrons to describe doped cobalt oxides with Co$^{3+}$ and Co$^{4+}$ ions in two-dimensional CoO$_2$ triangular lattice layers, as in Na$_{1-x}$CoO$_2$. The…
We use density functional theory methods to study the electronic structures of a series of $s-p$ cubic perovskites $ABX_{3}$: the experimentally available SrBiO$_{3}$, BaBiO$_{3}$, BaSbO$_3$, CsTlF$_{3}$, and CsTlCl$_{3}$, as well as the…
The five-band Hubbard model for a $d$ band with one electron per site is a model which has very interesting properties when the relevant ions are located at sites with high (e. g. cubic) symmetry. In that case, if the crystal field…
Method of invariants is used to obtain effective kp-Hamiltonian with position-dependent band parameters and correct boundary conditions for electron and hole envelope functions in A3B5-heterostructures with arbitrary interface orientation.…
A Hamiltonian H(\Gamma) applicable to cuprate HTS, with a doping dependent pairing interaction \Gamma(x) = V(x) + U(x), is linked to a Cu3d-O2p state probability model(SPM). A consequence of doping induced electron hopping, the SPM mandates…
Metal halide perovskites have shown extraordinary performance in solar energy conversion technologies. They have been classified as "soft semiconductors" due to their flexible corner-sharing octahedral networks and polymorphous nature.…
