Structural stability, electronic structure and optical properties of CH3NH3BaI3 hybrid perovskite is examined both from theory as well as experiment. Solution-processed thin films of CH3NH3BaI3 exhibited a high band gap of approximately…

Perovskite minerals form an essential component of the Earth's mantle, and synthetic crystals are ubiquitous in electronics, photonics, and energy technology. The extraordinary chemical diversity of these crystals raises the question on how…

The octahedral tilting and ferroelectric-like structural transition of LiOsO3 metallic perovskite [Nature Materials 12, 1024 (2013)] was examined using first-principles density-functional theory. In LiOsO3, a-a-a- octahedral titling mode is…

Under external stimuli, lead halide perovskites exhibit large atomic fluctuations, impacting optical and electron transport properties that affect device performance in operational settings. However, a thorough understanding of the atomic…

Several puzzling aspects of interplay of the experimental lattice distortion and the the magnetic properties of four narrow $t_{2g}$-band perovskite oxides (YTiO$_3$, LaTiO$_3$, YVO$_3$, and LaVO$_3$) are clarified using results of…

La doped SrFeO$_{3}$, La$_{1/3}$Sr$_{2/3}$FeO$_{3}$, exhibits a metal-to-insulator transition accompanied by both antiferromagnetic and charge ordering states along with the Fe-O bond disproportionation below a critical temperature near…

Antiperovskites are a promising candidate structure for the exploration of new materials. We discovered an antiperovskite phosphide, LaPd$_{3}$P, following our recent synthesis of $A$Pd$_{3}$P ($A$ = Ca, Sr, Ba). While $A$Pd$_{3}$P and…

Correlated oxides, such as BiMnO$_3$ and LaMnO$_3$, show complex interplay of electronic correlations and crystal structure exhibiting multiple first order phase transitions, some without a clear order parameter. The quantitative…

Perovskite oxides containing transition metals are promising materials in a wide range of electronic and electrochemical applications. However, neither their work function values nor an understanding of their work function physics have been…

First-principles calculations have been performed for different collinear magnetic orderings in orthorhombic manganites, such as HoMnO3, TbMnO3 and YMnO3, showing large GdFeO3-like distortions. Our results suggest that the AFM-E type…

First-principles molecular dynamics simulations have been employed to analyze the proton diffusion in cubic BaZrO3 perovskite at 1300K, and a non-linear effect of an applied isometric strain of 2% on the lattice parameter has been observed.…

We introduce a general first-principles methodology for computing electronic structure in a finite uniform magnetic field which allows for an arbitrary rational magnetic flux and nonlocal pseudopotentials, at a comparable time complexity of…

We study cubic ferroelectrics films that become uniaxial with a polar axis perpendicular to the film because of a misfit strain due to a substrate. The main present result is the analytical account for the elastic anisotropy as well as the…
