The metal-insulator and spin state transitions of CoO under high pressure are studied by using density functional theory combined with dynamical mean-field theory. Our calculations predict that the metal-insulator transition in CoO is a…
Magnetic properties of Li$_x$CoO$_2$ for $x = 0.94, 0.75, 0.66$ and $0.51$ were investigated in frames of method combining Generalized Gradient Approximation with Dynamical Mean--Field Theory (GGA+DMFT). We found that a delicate interplay…
The spin-orbit entangled (SOE) Jeff-state has been a fertile ground to study novel quantum phenomena. Contrary to the conventional weakly correlated Jeff=1/2 state of 4d and 5d transition metal compounds, the ground state of CuAl2O4 hosts a…
We have investigated the effect of pressure on the electronic, magnetic, and structural properties on a single crystal of conducting, ferromagnet (T$_{C}$=157K) La$_{0.82}$Sr$_{0.18}$CoO$_{3}$ located near the boundary of the…
Iron sesquioxide (Fe2O3) displays pressure and temperature induced spin and structural transitions. Our calculations show that, density functional theory (DFT), in the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) scheme, is capable of capturing…
The doping series Eu1-xCaxCoO3-d provides a rather peculiar way to study the spin-state transition in cobalt-based complex oxides since partial substitution of Eu3+ ions by Ca2+ ions does not increase the mean valence state of cobalt but is…
The results of magnetic and spectral properties calculation for paramagnetic phase of ferropericlase (Fe$_{1/4}$Mg$_{3/4}$)O at ambient and high pressures are reported. Calculations were performed by combined Local Density Approximation +…
Exploring the uncharacterized magnetic phases of Co$^{2+}$ chain compounds is critical for finding new low-dimensional magnets hosting quantized excitations. We map the unexplored magnetic phases of the Co$^{2+}$ chain compound…
Magnetic, dielectric, and magnetoelectric properties in a spin-state transition system are examined, motivated by the recent discovery of a multiferroic behavior in a cobalt oxide. We construct an effective model Hamiltonian based on the…
Synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction experiments reveal that the transition from a magnetic intermediate spin (IS) state to a nonmagnetic low-spin (LS) ground state in LaCoO3 normally observed when cooling, manifests itself under pressure…
The inversion and volume effects on magnetism in a spinel-type magnetically frustrated compound, CoAl2O4, and its gallium-substituted system, CoAl2-xGaxO4, were investigated. Magnetically frustrated Co2+ with spin S = 3/2 on the tetrahedral…
We introduce and investigate an effective five-band model for $t_{2g}$ and $e_g$ electrons to describe doped cobalt oxides with Co$^{3+}$ and Co$^{4+}$ ions in two-dimensional CoO$_2$ triangular lattice layers, as in Na$_{1-x}$CoO$_2$. The…
Ab initio calculations predict a metal-insulator transition at zero temperature to occur in La$_4$Ni$_3$O$_8$ at moderate pressures as a result of a pressure-induced spin-state transition. The spin-state transition that is seen at 105 K at…
The structural and magnetic properties of two mixed-valence cobaltites with formal population of 0.30 Co$^{4+}$ ions per f.u., (Pr$_{1-y}$Y$_{y}$)$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$CoO$_3$ ($y=0$ and 0.15), have been studied down to very low temperatures by…
Using configuration-state-constrained electronic structure calculations based on the generalized gradient approximation plus Hubbard U method, we sought the origin of the giant tetragonal ferroelectric distortion in the ambient phase of the…
In many transition metal compounds, in particular those containing Fe^{2+} and Co^{3+}, there occur spin-state transitions between low-spin and high-spin (or intermediate-spin) states. We show that typical interactions between similar…
We sought the origin of the metal-insulator transition in Sr2-xLaxCoO4, using electron-correlation corrected density functional calculations. Our results show that Sr2CoO4 is in an intermediate-spin (IS) state and a strong Co4+ 3d-O 2p…
Insulators containing chains of magnetic transition metal cations provide platforms for probing spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ dynamics and quantum critical behavior. Li$_2$CoCl$_4$ contains edge-sharing CoCl$_6$ octahedra that form chains along the…
We perform a comprehensive theoretical study of the pressure-induced evolution of the electronic structure, magnetic state, and phase stability of the late transition metal monoxides MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO using a fully charge…
The zero temperature Mott transition region in antiferromagnetic, spin S=5/2 MnO is probed using the correlated band theory LSDA+U method. The first transition encountered is an insulator-insulator volume collapse within the rocksalt…
