Substitutions at the Mn-site of the charge-ordered Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3 manganite is an effective way to induce abrupt jumps on the magnetic field driven magnetization curve. In order to get new insights into the origin of this remarkable…

We analyze the charge- and spin response functions of rare-earth nickelates RNiO3 and their heterostructures using random-phase approximation in a two-band Hubbard model. The inter-orbital charge fluctuation is found to be the driving…

Rare-earth titanates are Mott insulators whose magnetic ground state -- antiferromagnetic (AFM) or ferromagnetic (FM) -- can be tuned by the radius of the rare-earth element. Here, we combine phenomenology and first-principles calculations…

We present results of combined density functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) calculations, which show that the Mott insulator LaTiO3 undergoes an insulator-to-metal transition under compressive epitaxial strain of…

September 30, 2015 marks the 110th anniversary of the birth of the famous English physicist N. F. Mott. This article is dedicated to his memory. Here we consider the problem of metal-insulator transition. It is shown that the Mott criterion…

While the phase diagrams of the one- and multi-orbital Hubbard model have been well studied, the physics of real Mott insulators is often much richer, material dependent, and poorly understood. In the prototype Mott insulator…

The breakthrough discovery of superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates, and subsequently in several superconducting nickelates with more complex layered structures, capped a search spanning more than two decades and opened an entirely…

Magnetic and electrical properties of four series of rare earth cobaltates of the formula La0.7-xLnxCa0.3CoO3 with Ln = Pr, Nd, Gd and Dy have been investigated. Compositions close to x = 0.0 contain large ferromagnetic clusters or domains,…

We use first principles calculations to study the electronic properties of rock salt rare earth monopnictides La$X$ ($X=$N, P, As, Sb, Bi). A new type of topological band crossing termed `linked nodal rings' is found in LaN when the small…

The physics of doped Mott insulators is at the heart of some of the most exotic physical phenomena in materials research including insulator-metal transitions, colossal magneto-resistance, and high-temperature superconductivity in layered…

Electronic correlation is of fundamental importance to high temperature superconductivity. Iron-based superconductors are believed to possess moderate correlation strength, which combined with their multi-orbital nature makes them a…

The interplay between electron correlation and topology of relativistic electrons may lead to a new stage of the research on quantum materials and emergent functions. The emergence of various collective electronic orderings/liquids, which…

Superconducting nickelates appear to be difficult to synthesize. Since the chemical reduction of ABO3 (A: rare earth; B transition metal) with CaH2 may result in both, ABO2 and ABO2H, we calculate the topotactic H binding energy by density…

The Mott-insulating distorted perovskite SmTiO$_3$, doped with a single SrO layer in a quantum-well architecture is studied by the combination of density functional theory with dynamical mean-field theory. A rich correlated electronic…

We have investigated the interplay between the metal-insulator transition and ferromagnetism in $({\rm III}_{1-x},{\rm Mn}_x){\rm V}$ ferromagnetic semiconductors. Our study is based on a model in which $S=5/2$ Mn local moments are…

The double perovskite Ba$_{2}$NaOsO$_{6}$ (BNOO), an exotic example of a very high oxidation state (heptavalent) osmium $d^1$ compound and also uncommon by being a ferromagnetic Mott insulator without Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion, is modeled…

The low-temperature metallic phase of 1T-TaS2 may originate from current- and voltage-driven destabilization of the commensurate charge density wave (CDW) in a strongly correlated Mott insulator, alongside the robust yet rarely realized…

Since the discovery of superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates RNiO$_2$ (R=La, Pr, Nd), great research efforts have been paid to unveil its underlying superconducting mechanism. However, the physical origin of the intriguing…

Realization of novel functionalities by tuning magnetic interactions in rare earth perovskite oxide thin films opens up exciting technological prospects. Strain-induced tuning of magnetic interactions in rare earth cobaltates and nickelates…

We demonstrate that superconductivity driven by strong quantum-critical fluctuations can emerge near relativistic Mott transitions in twisted two-dimensional materials, taking on a remarkably rich character. In twisted double-bilayer…
