We use first-principle calculations for transition metal impurities V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni in GaAs as well as Cr and Mn in GaN, GaP and GaSb to identify the basic features of the electronic structure of these systems. The microscopic…

In the layered transition metal oxide LiNbO$_2$ the Nb$^{3+}$ ($4d^2$) ion is trigonal-prismatically coordinated with O ions, with the resulting crystal field leading to a single band system for low energy properties. A tight-binding…

The second and third order nonlinear susceptibilities of the ferroelectric oxides LiNbO$_3$, LiTaO$_3$, and KNbO$_3$ are calculated from first principles. Two distinct methodologies are compared, one approach is based on a perturbative…

Accurate first-principles predictions of the structural, electronic, magnetic, and electrochemical properties of cathode materials can be key in the design of novel efficient Li-ion batteries. Spinel-type cathode materials Li$_x$Mn$_2$O$_4$…

Transition-metal oxide films, demonstrating the effects of both threshold and nonvolatile memory resistive switching, have been recently proposed as candidate materials for storage-class memory. In this work we describe some experimental…

The lithium niobate single crystal is a well-known optical material that has been employed in a wide range of photonic applications. To realize further applications of the crystal, the birefringence properties need to be determined over a…

The bulk photovoltaic effect is a long-known but poorly understood phenomenon. Recently, however, the multiferroic bismuth ferrite has been observed to produce strong photovoltaic response to visible light, suggesting that the effect has…
