Density-functional simulations are used to calculate structural properties and high-symmetry phonons of the hypothetical cubic phase, the stable orthorhombic phase and an intermediate tetragonal phase of magnesium silicate perovskite. We…
Distinct shortcomings of individual halide perovskites for solar applications, such as restricted range of band gaps, propensity of ABX3 to decompose into AX+BX2, or oxidation of 2ABX3 into A2BX6 have led to the need to consider alloys of…
Perovskite materials have become ubiquitous in many technologically relevant applications, ranging from catalysts in solid oxide fuel cells to light absorbing layers in solar photovoltaics. The thermodynamic phase stability is a key…
The electronic structure and energetic stability of A$_2$BX$_6$ halide compounds with the cubic and tetragonal variants of the perovskite-derived K$_2$PtCl$_6$ prototype structure are investigated computationally within the frameworks of…
Chalcogenide perovskites, particularly II-IV ABS3 compounds, are a promising class of materials for optoelectronic applications. However, these materials frequently exhibit instability in two respects: 1) a preference for structures…
We use first-principles methods to study oxygen-octahedra rotations in ABO3 perovskite oxides. We focus on the short-period, perfectly antiphase or in-phase, tilt patterns that characterize most compounds and control their physical (e.g.,…
Halide perovskites are a promising class of materials for optoelectronic applications, due to their excellent optoelectronic performance. However, they suffer several dynamical degradation problems, the characterization of which is…
Antiperovskites are a rich family of compounds with applications in battery cathodes, superconductors, solid-state lighting, and catalysis. Recently, a novel series of antimonide phosphide antiperovskites (A$_3$SbP, where A = Ca, Sr, Ba)…
Hexagonal perovskites with face-sharing octahedral connectivity are an underexplored class of materials. We propose quantitative design principles for stabilizing face-sharing ABX3 hexagonal perovskites based on a comparative analysis of…
Chalcogenide perovskites are lead-free materials for potential photovoltaic or thermoelectric applications. BaZrS$_3$ is the most studied member of this family due to its superior thermal and chemical stability, desirable optoelectronic…
Instability of hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites hinders their development for photovoltaic applications. First-principle calculations are used for evaluation of a decomposition reaction enthalpy of hybrid halide perovskites,…
We present a comprehensive review of the structural chemistry of hybrid lead halides of stoichiometry APbX4, A2PbX4 or AAPbX4, where A and A are organic ammonium cations and X = Cl, Br or I. These compounds may be considered as layered…
Using first-principles methods, we predict the energy landscape and ferroelectric states of double perovskites of the form AA$'$BB$'$O$_6$ in which the atoms on both the A and B sites are arranged in rock-salt order. While we are not aware…
Halide perovskites have been extensively studied owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties and their unique lattice characteristics, that are very soft and anharmonic. Recent studies indicate the importance of a deep understanding…
It has been long known that numerous halide and oxide perovskites can have non-ideal octahedra, showing tilting, rotation, and metal atom displacements. It has also been known that compounds that have at low temperatures a single structural…
Corner-shared ABX$_3$ perovskites have long featured prominently in solid-state chemistry and condensed matter physics. Still, the joint understanding of their two main subgroups-halides and oxides-has not been fully developed. Indeed,…
Motivated by the experimental synthesis of two-dimensional (2D) perovskite materials, we study the stability of 2D SrTiO$_3$ from first principles. We find that the TiO$_6$ octahedral rotations emerge in 2D SrTiO$_3$ with a rotation angle…
The great variety of lead halide perovskite semiconductors represents an outstanding platform for studying crystal symmetry effects on the spin-dependent properties. Access to them is granted through optical orientation of exciton and…
Structural disorder is common in metal-halide perovskites and important for understanding the functional properties of these materials. First-principles methods can address structure variation on the atomistic scale, but they are often…
FAPbI3, as a typical hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite, has attracted considerable interest due to its band gap suitable for visible light absorption and good thermal stability. A barrier to the use of FAPbI3 in commercial, stable devices…
