I study the electronic structure and magnetism of postperovskite CaIrO$_3$ using first-principles calculations. The density functional calculations within the local density approximation without the combined effect of spin-orbit coupling…
The two-dimensional layered perovskite Sr2IrO4 was proposed to be a spin-orbit Mott insulator, where the effect of Hubbard interaction is amplified on a narrow J_{eff} = 1/2 band due to strong spin-orbit coupling. On the other hand, the…
We report on the study of insulator-to-metal transition in post-perovskite compound CaIrO3. It is discovered that a gradual chemical substitution of calcium by yttrium leads to the onset of strong metallic behavior in this compound. This…
We have investigated temperature-dependent electronic structures of Na2IrO3 to unravel its insulating nature. Employing the combined scheme of the density-functional theory (DFT) and the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT), we have shown…
Honeycomb Na$_2$IrO$_3$ is a prototype spin-orbit Mott insulator and Kitaev magnet. We report a combined structural and electrical resistivity study of Na$_2$IrO$_3$ single crystals. Laue back-scattering diffraction indicates twinning with…
A comprehensive investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of NaOsO3 has been made using the first principle calculations, in order to understand the importance of Coulomb interaction, spin-orbit coupling and magnetic order in…
We study Na2IrO3 by ARPES, optics, and band structure calculations in the local-density approximation (LDA). The weak dispersion of the Ir 5d-t2g manifold highlights the importance of structural distortions and spin-orbit coupling (SO) in…
We present an anti-ferromagnetically ordered ground state of Na$_{2}$IrO$_{3}$ based on density-functional-theory calculations including both spin-orbit coupling and on-site Coulomb interaction $U$. We show that the splitting of $e_{g}'$…
Sodium iridium(V) oxide, NaIrO3, was synthesized by a high pressure solid state method and recovered to ambient conditions. It is found to be isostructural with CaIrO3, the much-studied structural analogue of the high-pressure…
We have investigated the electronic structure of the transition metal oxide Ca3Ru2O7 within density functional theory using the generalized gradient approximation while considering strong Coulomb correlations in the framework of the fully…
We investigate the correlation-induced Mott, magnetic, and topological phase transitions in artificial (111) bilayers of perovskite transition-metal oxides LaAuO$_3$ and SrIrO$_3$ for which the previous density-functional theory…
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…
There has been a rapidly growing interest on the interplay between spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and Hubbard interaction U in correlated materials. A current consensus is that the stronger the SOC, the smaller is the critical interaction Uc…
Mott physics is characterized by an interaction-driven metal-to-insulator transition in a partially filled band. In the resulting insulating state, antiferromagnetic orders of the local moments typically develop, but in rare situations no…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) is one of the most dramatic manifestations of electron correlations in materials. Various mechanisms producing MITs have been extensively considered, including the Mott (electron localization via Coulomb…
We investigate the electronic structure of two Ir$^{5+}$ honeycomb iridates, Sr$_3$CaIr$_2$O$_9$ and NaIrO$_3$, by means of resonant x-ray techniques. We confirm that Sr$_3$CaIr$_2$O$_9$ realizes a large spin-orbit driven non-magnetic $J =…
The orthorhombic perovskite NaOsO3 undergoes a continuous metal-insulator transition (MIT), accompanied by antiferromagnetic (AFM) order at T_N=410 K, suggested to be an example of the rare Slater (itinerant) MIT. We study this system using…
On the example of TiO$_4$ layer (such as realized in Sr$_2$TiO$_4$) we study electronic structure of multi-band $d-p$ models describing transition metal perovskites. In agreement with the experiment, the studied system is predicted to be a…
We studied the electronic structure of $\beta$-Li$_2$IrO$_3$ insulator within the density-functional theory using the generalized gradient approximation with taking into account strong Coulomb correlations in the framework of the fully…
A theory of heterostructures comprised of LaTiO$_3$ (a Mott insulator) and SrTiO$_3$ (a band insulator) is presented. The band structure of the Ti $d$% -electrons is treated with a nearest neighbor tight-binding approximation; the electric…
