We present a density-functional theory study of the effects of oxygen vacancies on the structural and electronic properties of vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$). Our motivation is the reported suppression of the metal-insulator transition by oxygen…

Materials that undergo reversible metal-insulator transitions are obvious candidates for new generations of devices. For such potential to be realised, the underlying microscopic mechanisms of such transitions must be fully determined. In…

We analyze the effects on the structural and electronic properties of vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) of adding an empirical inter-atomic potential within the density-functional theory$+V$ (DFT$+V$) framework. We use the DFT$+V$ machinery founded…

We present a combined density-functional theory and single-site dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) study of vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) using an unconventional set of bond-centered orbitals as the basis of the correlated subspace. VO$_2$ is a…

Vanadium dioxide is a complex oxide material, which shows large resistivity and optical reflectance change while transitioning from the insulator to metal phase at ~68 {\deg}C. In this work, we use a modified atmospheric thermal oxidation…

The phase behavior and kinetic pathways of Li1+xV3O8 are investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) and a cluster expansion (CE) methodology that approximates the system Hamiltonian in order to identify the lowest energy…

The dipolar dissociation of molecular oxygen due to 21-35 eV energy electron collision has been studied using the time sliced velocity map imaging technique. A rough estimation about the threshold of the process and the kinetic energy and…

We aim to understand the formation of cloud condensation nuclei in oxygen-rich substellar atmospheres by calculating fundamental properties of the energetically most favorable vanadium oxide molecules and clusters. A hierarchical…

We have investigated the quantum dynamics of O2 dissociative adsorption on a Ag(111) surface. We performed the calculations with a Hamiltonian where the O2 translational motion is perpendicular to the surface and for O2 vibrational energy.…

We propose a practical approach to spin-polarized systems within the van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF). The method was applied to a gas phase oxygen molecule and a parallel (H-type) pair of oxygen molecules. It was found that vdW-DF…

Oxidation catalysis on reducible oxide-supported small metal clusters often involves lattice oxygen. In the present work, we trace the path of lattice oxygen from Fe3O4(001) onto small Pt clusters during the CO oxidation, aiming at…

Density functional theory (DFT) and DFT corrected for on-site Coulomb interactions (DFT+U) calculations are presented on Aluminium doping in bulk TiO$_2$ and the anatase (101) surface. Particular attention is paid to the mobility of oxygen…

Dislocation core chemistry in oxides critically influences mechanical behavior and functionality; yet the evolution of core chemistry during the dislocation motion in them has not been directly observed. Here, using SrTiO3 as a model…

We carry out bond-strength based analysis for the migration barrier ($E_{\rm B}$) of oxygen vacancies in rutile-type 3$d$ transition-metal dioxides by combining density-functional theory (DFT) and the bond-valence model. The covalent and…
