First principle calculations were performed to study the ground state electronic properties of Barium titanate within the density functional theory (DFT). In our DFT computations, we used Vosko-Wilk-Nusair correlation energy functional and…
We study the nature of the electronic states in the intermediate band formed by interstitial titanium in silicon. Our single-site description combines effects of electronic correlations, captured by dynamical mean-field theory, and…
Electrochemical capacitors with pure electric double layer capacitance are so far largely been limited to carbon materials only. Conventional metal oxides with Faradaic pseudocapacitance substantially suffer from material instability at…
Titanium dioxide, TiO$_2$, has multiple applications in catalysis, energy conversion and memristive devices because of its electronic structure. Most of these applications utilize the naturally existing phases: rutile, anatase and brookite.…
Measurements of dc magnetization ($M$) and electrical resistivity ($\rho$) have been carried out as a function of temperature ($T$) for layered oxide Li$_{\rm x}$CoO$_2$ (0.51$\leq$$x$$\leq$1.0) using single crystal specimens. After slow…
Oxide heterostructures are of great interest both for fundamental and applicative reasons. In particular the two-dimensional electron gas at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ or LaTiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfaces displays many different physical…
Switchability of materials properties by applying controlled stimuli such as voltage pulses is an emerging field of study with applicability in adaptive and programmable devices like neuromorphic transistors or non-emissive smart displays.…
Ti2O3 exhibits a unique metal-insulator transition (MIT) at approximately 450 K over a wide temperature range of ~ 150 K. This broad MIT accompanied by lattice deformation differs from the sharp MITs observed in most other transition-metal…
The magnetic structure of antiferromagnetically ordered phases of quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors is studied theoretically at absolute zero based on the mean field approximation to the quarter-filled band with on-site and…
The mechanisms of magnetoelastic interaction in MnF$_2$ are studied using the method of acoustoelectric transformation. The temperature dependence of the piezomagnetic coupling coefficient and its anisotropy are determined in the…
Charge ordering in the low-temperature triclinic structure of titanium oxide (Ti4O7) is investigated using the local density approximation (LDA)+U method. Although the total 3d charge separation is rather small, an orbital order parameter…

Self-ordered nanotubular titania TiO2-NT with outer tube diameter of 45 nm are synthesized using the anodic oxidation of titanium foil. Four sets of memristors with 100 ${\mu}m$ diameter based on Ti/TiO2-NT/Au sandwich structures with an…
Several rare earth magnetic pyrochlore materials are well modeled by a spin-1/2 quantum Hamiltonian with anisotropic exchange parameters Js. For the Er2Ti2O7 material, the Js were recently determined from high-field inelastic neutron…
The $T^2$-scaling of resistivity with temperature is often viewed as a classic hallmark of a Fermi-liquid (FL) behavior in metals. However, if umklapp scattering is suppressed, this scaling is not universally guaranteed to occur. In this…
Transition-metal-dichalcogenides own a variety of structures as well as electronic properties which can be modulated by structural variations, element substitutions, ion or molecule intercalations, etc. However, there is very limited…
