Soft-x-ray photoemission and absorption spectroscopies are employed to investigate the electronic structures of Sr_{1-x}Rh_{2}O_{4}. Similarly to the layered cobaltates such as Na_{1-x}CoO_{2}, a valence-band satellite feature (VBS) occurs…

We use computational and experimental methods to study d0 ferromagnetism at a charge- imbalanced interface between two perovskites. In SrTiO3/KTaO3 superlattice calculations, the charge imbalance introduces holes in the SrTiO3 layer,…

Strontium titanate (SrTiO3, STO) is a critically important material for the study of emergent electronic phases in complex oxides, as well as for the development of applications based on their heterostructures. Despite the large body of…

We found that a surface state induced by hydrogenation on the surface of SrTiO$_{3}$(001) (STO) did not obey the rigid band model, which was confirmed by in situ electrical resistivity measurements in ultrahigh vacuum. With exposure of…

The influence of the electric field and electric current on the behavior of oxygen vacancies (VOs) in TiO2 anatase was investigated with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM). At the anatase (101) surface VOs are not stable; they migrate into…

Using a combination of density functional theory calculations with an on-site Coulomb repulsion term (DFT+$U$) and Boltzmann transport theory within the constant relaxation time approximation, we explore the effect of oxygen vacancies on…

We have investigated the effects of structure change and electron correlation on SrTiO$_{3}$ single crystals using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We show that the cubic to tetragonal phase transition at 105$^\circ$K is…

Electrolyte gating is widely used to induce large carrier density modulation on solid surfaces to explore various properties. Most of past works have attributed the charge modulation to electrostatic field effect. However, some recent…

Oxygen vacancies can be of utmost importance for improving or deteriorating physical properties of oxide materials. Here, we studied from first-principles the electronic and magnetic properties of oxygen vacancies in the double perovskite…

Semiconducting oxides possess a variety of intriguing electronic, optical, and magnetic properties, and native defects play a crucial role in these systems. In this study, we study the influence of native defects on these properties of…

According to defect chemistry, the experimental observations of enhanced cation diffusion in a reducing atmosphere in zirconia, ceria and barium titanate are in support of an interstitial mechanism. Yet previous computational studies always…

The discovery of high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas and low carrier density superconductivity in multiple SrTiO$_3$-based heterostructures has stimulated intense interest in the surface properties of SrTiO$_3$. The recent discovery…

We present ab initio calculations of transport properties of atomic-sized aluminum contacts in the presence of oxygen. The experimental situation is modeled by considering a single oxygen atom (O) or one of the molecules O2 and O3 bridging…

We study the three-body Fermi liquid effects in the SU($N$) Anderson impurity model in the strong interaction limit where the occupation number $N_d^{}$ of the impurity levels varies over the range of $0<N_d^{}<1$. The three-body…

The voltage-spectral density SV(f) of the 2-dimensional electron gas formed at the interface of LaAlO3 /SrTiO3 has been thoroughly investigated. The low-frequency component has a clear 1/f behavior with a quadratic bias current dependence,…

Pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are rather inert to O$_2$ and N$_2$, which for low doses chemisorb only on defect sites or vacancies of the SWCNTs at the ppm level. However, very low doping has a major effect on the…

Amorphous organic semiconductors based on small molecules and polymers are used in many applications, most prominently organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic solar cells. Impurities and charge traps are omnipresent in most…

We investigate the behavior of oxygen vacancies in three different metal-oxide semiconductors (rutile and anatase TiO2, monoclinic WO3, and tetragonal ZrO2) using a recently proposed hybrid density-functional method in which the fraction of…

The correlation-driven metal-insulator transition (MIT) of BaVS$_3$ was studied by polarized infrared spectroscopy. In the metallic state two types of electrons coexist at the Fermi energy: The quasi 1D metallic transport of $A_{1g}$…

We present a computational study of the electronic properties of amorphous SiO2. The ionic configurations used are the ones generated by an earlier molecular dynamics simulations in which the system was cooled with different cooling rates…
