We discuss the application of the Agapito Curtarolo and Buongiorno Nardelli (ACBN0) pseudo-hybrid Hubbard density functional to several transition metal oxides. ACBN0 is a fast, accurate and parameter-free alternative to traditional DFT+$U$…
The wide variety of complex physical behavior exhibited in transition metal oxides, particularly the perovskites A$B$O$_3$, makes them a material family of interest in many research areas, but the drastically different electronic structures…
Accurate computational predictions of band gaps are of practical importance to the modeling and development of semiconductor technologies, such as (opto)electronic devices and photoelectrochemical cells. Among available electronic-structure…
Hubbard-corrected density functional theory, denoted by DFT+U method, was developed to enable correct prediction of insulating properties for strongly-correlated electron systems. UO$_2$ is an example having O-$2p$, U-$6d$, and U-$5f$…
Density-functional theory with extended Hubbard functionals (DFT+$U$+$V$) provides a robust framework to accurately describe complex materials containing transition-metal or rare-earth elements. It does so by mitigating self-interaction…
HfO$_2$-based ferroelectrics have emerged as promising materials for advanced nanoelectronics, with their robust polarization and silicon compatibility making them ideal for high-density, non-volatile memory applications. Oxygen vacancies,…
The discovery of two-dimensional (2D) materials possessing switchable spontaneous polarization with atomic thickness opens up exciting opportunities to realize ultrathin, high-density electronic devices with potential applications ranging…
First-principles Hubbard-corrected approximate density-functional theory (DFT+U) is a low-cost, potentially high throughput method of simulating materials, but it has been hampered by empiricism and inconsistent band-gap correction in…
Density functional theory (DFT) has been widely applied to a variety of realistic materials but often struggles to explain the properties of correlated systems. The DFT + U method, which introduces a Hubbard U correction to the DFT, has…
We study the physical properties of Zn$X$ ($X$=O, S, Se, Te) and Cd$X$ ($X$=O, S, Se, Te) in the zinc-blende, rock-salt, and wurtzite structures using the recently developed fully $ab$ $initio$ pseudo-hybrid Hubbard density functional…
In this article, we propose an energy functional at the level of DFT+U+V that allows us to compute self-consistently the values of the on-site interaction, Hubbard U and Hund J, as well as the intersite interaction V. This functional…
Providing highly simplified models of strongly correlated electronic systems that challenge {\it ab initio} calculations can serve as a valuable testing ground to improve these methods. In this study, we present a comprehensive study of the…
We present in full detail a newly developed formalism enabling density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) calculations from a DFT+$U$ ground state. The implementation includes ultrasoft pseudopotentials and is valid for both insulating…
DFT+U is a widely used treatment in the density functional theory (DFT) to deal with correlated materials that contain open-shell elements, whereby the quantitative and sometimes even qualitative failures of local and semilocal…
The design of novel cathode materials for Li-ion batteries would greatly benefit from accurate first-principles predictions of structural, electronic, and magnetic properties as well as intercalation voltages in compounds containing…
The ab initio computational method known as Hubbard-corrected density functional theory (DFT+$U$) captures well ground electronic structures of a set of solids that are poorly described by standard DFT alone. Since lattice dynamical…
Streamlined prediction of the electronic properties of photoactive materials warrants a Density Functional Theory (DFT) based approach that (i) yields reliable bandgaps, (ii) is free of empirically tuned parameters, and (iii) exhibits low…
Contradictory theoretical results for oxygen vacancies in SrTiO$_3$ (STO) were often related to the peculiar properties of STO, which is a $d^0$ transition metal oxide with mixed ionic-covalent bonding. Here, we apply, for the first time,…

For fast and accurate calculations of band gaps of solids, we present an {\it ab initio} method that extends the density functional theory plus on-site Hubbard interaction (DFT+$U$) to include inter-site Hubbard interaction ($V$). This…
