We present a comparison of electron-phonon interaction in NbB_2 and MgB_2, calculated using full-potential, density-functional-based methods in P6/mmm crystal structure. Our results, described in terms of (i) electronic structure, (ii)…
We report investigations of the optical properties of the narrow gap semiconductor FeSb2 in comparison with the structural homolog RuSb2. In the infrared region the latter shows insulating behavior in whole investigated temperature range…
We present results of GGA+U calculations for the "d^0 magnet" RbO_2, where magnetic properties are due to partially filled oxygen p orbitals. We show that on-site interactions on the oxygen sites lead to a strong tendency towards the…
The concept of electronic correlations plays an important role in modern condensed matter physics. It refers to interaction effects which cannot be explained within a static mean-field picture as provided by Hartree-Fock theory. Electronic…
Electric current has been experimentally demonstrated to be able to drive the insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) in VO$_2$. The main mechanisms involved are believed to be the Joule heating effect and the strong electron-correlation…
RuO$_2$ has been regarded as a prototypical candidate for metallic altermagnet, offering a potential platform for high-speed and high-efficiency spintronics. However, the magnetic ground state of RuO$_2$ remains a topic of active debate due…
The Co-intercalated NbS$_2$ (Co$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$) compound exhibits large anomalous Hall conductance, likely due to the non-coplanar magnetic ordering of Co spins. In this work, we study the relation between this novel magnetism and the…
The notion of strong electronic correlations arose in the context of $d$-metal oxides such as NiO but can be exemplified on systems as simple as the H$_2$ molecule. Here we shed light on correlation effects on B$_6^{2-}$ clusters as found…
Using ab-initio calculations we reveal the nature of the insulating phase recently found experimentally in monolayer 1T-NbSe$_2$. We find soft phonon modes in a large parts of the Brillouin zone indicating the strong-coupling nature of a…
The electronic structure of the quasi-lowdimensional vanadium sulfide \bavs3 is investigated for the different phases above the magnetic ordering temperature. By means of density functional theory and its combination with dynamical-mean…
In this paper we investigate the electronic and superconducting properties in nickelate compounds of NiO2 through Perturbative Density Functional Theory (P-DFT) and multi-band BCS theory. We consider three different cases of study (i) the…
Correlated two-dimensional (2D) layers, like 1T-phases of TaS2, TaSe2 and NbSe2, exhibit rich tunability through varying interlayer couplings, which promotes the understanding of electron-correlation in the 2D limit. However, the coupling…
Topological insulators have become one of the most active research areas in condensed matter physics. This article reviews progress on the topic of electronic correlations effects in the two-dimensional case, with a focus on systems with…
Vanadium dioxide(VO$_2$) is a paradigmatic example of a strongly correlated system that undergoes a metal-insulator transition at a structural phase transition. To date, this transition has necessitated significant post-hoc adjustments to…
Deciphering the complicated interplay between collective and separate behaviors lies at the heart of first-order metal-insulator transition (MIT) in correlated electron systems, enabling the rational design of exotic electronic states and…
A VO2 single-crystal has been subject of a combined investigation by high resolution XPS, x-ray emission spectroscopy with electron and energy-selective x-ray excitation (V L-alpha, V K-beta-5- and O K-alpha emission) and x-ray absorption…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) of VO2 is discussed with particular emphasis on the structural instability of the rutile compounds toward dimerization. Ti substitution experiments reveal that the MIT is robust up to 20% Ti…
We determine the electronic structure and phase stability of paramagnetic V$_2$O$_3$ at the Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator phase transition, by employing a combination of an ab initio method for calculating band structures with dynamical…
The electronic band structures of two-dimensional materials are significantly different from those of their bulk counterparts, due to quantum confinement and strong modifications of electronic screening. An accurate determination of…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) is a fundamental phenomenon in condensed matter physics and a hallmark of strong electronic correlations. Hydrogen-based systems offer a simple yet powerful model for investigating the MIT, as their…
