Experimental data on the structure of ferroelectric oxide Bismuth Titanate suggests two different kinds of structures i.e. orthorhombic and monoclinic. We have performed density functional theory (DFT) based first principle calculations to…
We have conducted a detailed high-pressure (HP) investigation on $Eu-$doped $BaTiO_3$ using angle-resolved x-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, dielectric permittivity and dc resistance measurements. The x-ray diffraction data analysis…
Understanding ferroelectricity is of both fundamental and technological importance to further stimulate the development of new materials designs and manipulations. Here, we perform an in-depth first-principle study on the well-known…
Mn3TeO6 (MTO) has been experimentally found to adopt a P21/n structure under high pressure, which exhibits a significantly smaller band gap compared to the atmospheric R-3 phase. In this study, we systematically investigate the magnetism,…
In piezoelectric ceramics the changes in the phase stabilities versus stress and temperature in the vicinity of the phase boundary play a central role. The present study was dedicated to the classical piezoelectric, lead-zirconate-titanate…
An effective Hamiltonian for the ferroelectric transition in $PbTiO_3$ is constructed from first-principles density-functional-theory total-energy and linear-response calculations through the use of a localized, symmetrized basis set of…
The behavior of PbTiO$_3$ under uniaxial strains and stresses is investigated from first-principles calculations within density functional theory. We show that irrespectively of the uniaxial mechanical constraint applied, the system keeps a…
We study ferroelectricity in the classic perovskite ferroelectric PbTiO$_3$ to high pressures with density functional theory (DFT) and experimental diamond-anvil techniques. We use second harmonic generation (SHG) spectroscopy to detect…
The ferroelectric phase transition in barium titanate under pressure was studied within the framework of Landau-Ginzburg theory using differential scanning calorimetry. An innovative method for high-sensitive thermal measurements under…
Pressure-induced superconductivity and structural phase transitions in phosphorous (P) are studied by resistivity measurements under pressures up to 170 GPa and fully $ab-initio$ crystal structure and superconductivity calculations up to…
The crystal structures and phonon spectra of orthorhombic cadmium titanate with the $Pbnm$ structure and of its two possible ferroelectrically distorted phases with $Pbn2_1$ and $Pb2_1m$ space groups were calculated from first principles…

High pressure behavior of potassium chlorate (KClO$_3$) has been investigated from 0-10 GPa by means of first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The calculated ground state parameters, transition pressure and phonon…
By using first-principles methods based on density functional theory we revisited the zero-temperature phase diagram of stoichiometric SrCoO3, a ferromagnetic metallic perovskite that undergoes significant structural, electronic, and…
A theory to describe the dielectric anomalies and the ferroelectric phase transition induced by oxygen isotope replacement in SrTiO$_3$ is developed. The proposed model gives consistent explanation between apparently contradictory…
Structural changes in REMnO3 (RE= Y, Ho, Lu) under high pressure were examined by synchrotron x-ray diffraction methods at room temperature. Compression occurs more readily in the ab plane than along the c-axis. Under hydrostatic pressure…
Within the framework of Landau-Ginzburg theory the kinetics of domain structure formation in ferroelectrics that undergo first order phase transition was investigated under the influence of hydrostatic pressure. It was established that…
Epitaxial strain and chemical substitution have been the workhorses of functional materials design. These static techniques have shown immense success in controlling properties in complex oxides through the tuning of subtle structural…
We report our first-principles investigations on three polytypes of BaTiO3 (BTO): a paraelectric phase with cubic Pm-3m structure and two ferroelectric (FE) phases with tetragonal P4mm and rhombohedral R3m structures. We compared the…
The phonon spectrum of cubic cadmium metastannate and the crystal structures of its distorted phases were calculated from first principles within the density functional theory. It is shown that the phonon spectrum and the energy spectrum of…
