The relaxation to equilibrium of lattice systems with long-range interactions is investigated. The timescales involved depend polynomially on the system size, potentially leading to diverging equilibration times. A kinetic equation for…

We provide a first-principles description of the crystalline and oxygen-deficient Ta2O5 using refined computational methods and models. By performing calculations on a number of candidate structures, we determined the low-temperature phase…

The effects of lattice relaxation in LaTiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ superlattices are investigated using a combination of LDA$+U$ density functional theory, and Hartree-Fock effective Hamiltonian calculations. We find noticeable ($\sim 0.1$--0.2 \AA)…

We theoretically study the lattice relaxation in the twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) and its effect on the electronic band structure. We develop an effective continuum theory to describe the lattice relaxation in general TBGs and obtain the…

We study a harmonic triangular lattice, which relaxes in the presence of a weak, short-wavelength periodic potential. Monte Carlo simulations reveal that the elastic lattice has only short-ranged positional correlations, despite the absence…

We investigate the existence of topological phases in a dense two-dimensional atomic lattice gas. The coupling of the atoms to the radiation field gives rise to dissipation and a non-trivial coherent long-range exchange interaction whose…

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…

Dynamical properties of lattice systems with long-range pair interactions, decaying like 1/r^{\alpha} with the distance r, are investigated, in particular the time scales governing the relaxation to equilibrium. Upon varying the interaction…

Lattice relaxation profoundly reshapes electronic structures in twisted materials. Prevailing treatments, however, typically rely on large-scale density functional theory (DFT), which is computationally costly and mechanistically opaque.…

By using DFT+U, we explore the formation of oxygen vacancies and their impact on the electronic and magnetic structure in strained bulk LaNiO3 and (LaNiO3)$_1$/(LaAlO3)$_1$(001) superlattices. For bulk LaNiO3, we find that epitaxial strain…

The consideration of oxygen vacancies influence on the relaxors with perovskite structure was considered in the framework of Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire phenomenological theory. The theory applicability for relaxors is based on the existence…

We numerically investigate the long-time behavior of the density-density auto-correlation function in driven lattice gases with particle exclusion and periodic boundary conditions in one, two, and three dimensions using precise Monte Carlo…

Performing an analysis within density functional theory, we develop insight into the structural and electronic properties of the oxide heterostructure LaAlO3/SrTiO3. Electrostatic surface effects are decomposed from the internal lattice…

The dynamics of an F--center created by an oxygen vacancy on the $\mathrm{TiO_{2}(110)}$ rutile surface has been investigated using {\it ab initio} molecular dynamics. These simulations uncover a truly complex, time-dependent behavior of…

In this paper we study the possible relation between the electronic and magnetic structure of the TiO2/LaAlO3 interface and the unexpected magnetism found in undoped TiO2 films grown on LaAlO$_3$. We concentrate on the role played by…

The defect stability in a prototypical perovskite oxide superlattice consisting of SrTiO$_3$ and PbTiO$_3$ (STO/PTO) is determined using first principles density functional theory calculations. Specifically, the oxygen vacancy formation…

We use first-principles methods to investigate the effects of collective lattice excitations on the formation of oxygen vacancies in perovskite thin films. We find that phonons play a crucial role on the strain-mediated control of defect…

We provide a systematic study on the electronic structure of a series of Ta$_2$O$_5$ polymorphs using standard density functional theory (DFT) calculations as well as the more accurate many-body perturbation theory within the GW…

Defects such as oxygen vacancy are widely considered to be critical for the performance of HfO2-based devices, and yet atomistic mechanisms underlying various exotic effects such as wake-up and fluid imprint remain elusive. Here, guided by…

Complex oxides are well known to develop oxygen ordering patterns with well defined periodicities, but their interplay with electronic correlations remains largely unexplored. Here, we report resonant and non-resonant x-ray diffraction data…
