In transition metal doped ZnO, the energy position of dopant 3$d$ states relative to host conduction and valence bands is crucial in determining the possibilty of long range ferromagnetism. Density functional theory based estimates of the…

We present the results of a density functional theory (DFT) investigation of the surfaces of rutile-like vanadium dioxide, VO2(R). We calculate the surface energies of low Miller index planes, and find that the most stable surface…

Contrary to prior calculations, the Ni-rich ordered structures of the Cr-Ni alloy system are found to be antiferromagnetic under semi-local density-functional theory. The optimization of local magnetic moments significantly increases the…

The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of ultrathin Cu-coated Co nanowires have been studied by using empirical genetic algorithm simulations and a tight-binding $spd$ model Hamiltonian in the unrestricted Hartree-Hock…

Tetrahedrite (copper antimony sulfosalt) is promising p-type themoeletric material due to very low intrinsic thermal conductivity and moderately-high power factor, with one of the limitations being lack of n-type variant to create…

Synthesis of ammonia through photo- and electrocatalysis is a rapidly growing field. Titania-based catalysts are widely reported for photocatalytic ammonia synthesis and have also been suggested as electrocatalysts. The addition of…

We have studied the electronic structure and the magnetism of Cu-doped ZnO nanowires, which have been reported to show ferromagnetism at room temperature [G. Z. Xing ${et}$ ${al}$., Adv. Mater. {\bf 20}, 3521 (2008).], by x-ray…

We investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of copper-doped Pb$_{10}$(PO$_4$)$_6$O using a combination of density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory. The flat half-filled electronic band at the Fermi level is…

We investigate the structural, magnetocrystalline anisotropy, critical behaviour, and magnetocaloric effect in the layered room-temperature monoclinic ferromagnet Cr$_{1.38}$Te$_2$. The critical behavior is studied by employing various…

The van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnet 1T-CrTe2 is an emerging spintronics platform, notable for its high Curie temperature (Tc) and intriguing transport properties. However, the fundamental interplay between the electron correlations and…

Exploring new magnetic materials is essential for finding advantageous functional properties such as magnetoresistance, magnetocaloric effect, spintronic functionality, and multiferroicity. Versatile classes of double perovskite compounds…

We show that the magnetism of double perovskite AFe_{1/2}M_{1/2}O_3 systems may be described by the Heisenberg model on the simple cubic lattice, where only half of sites are occupied by localized magnetic moments. The nearest-neighbor…

On the basis of the first-principles evolutionary crystal structure prediction of stable compounds in the Cu-F system, we predict two experimentally unknown stable phases -- Cu2F5 and CuF3. Cu2F5 comprises two interacting magnetic…

We present a first-principles investigation of ferroelectricity in layered perovskite oxide La2Ti2O7 (LTO), one of the compounds with highest Curie temperature known (1770 K). Our calculations reveal that LTO's ferroelectric transition…

We study the interplay between correlation, itinerant ferromagnetism and local moment formation on the electron doped triangular lattice of sodium cobaltates Na$_x$CoO$_2$. We find that strong correlation renormalizes the Stoner criterion…

Inducing a robust long-range magnetic order in diamagnetic graphene remains a challenge. While nitrogen-doped graphene is reported to be a promising candidate, the corresponding exchange mechanism endures unclear and is essential to tune…
