By employing a combined method of density functional theory and dynamical mean field theory (DFT+DMFT) we investigate the effect of electronic correlations on the magnetic and superconducting properties of the iron-based parent compound…

We demonstrate that plastic deformation in solids is associated with a dynamic transition that is reminiscent to the transition from a superconducting to a mixed phase in Type II superconductors. We report analytic calculations, extensive…

We have investigated electronic energy band structures and partial density of states of intermetallic compounds $\textit{viz.}$ CrSi, MnSi, FeSi and CoSi, by using density functional theory (DFT). CrSi \& MnSi, FeSi and CoSi have metallic,…

Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and density functional theory (DFT), an experimental and theoretical study of changes in the electronic structure (dispersion dependencies) and corresponding modification of the energy…

We use the Bethe ansatz equations to calculate the charge stiffness $D_{\rm c} = (L/2) d^2 E_0/d\Phi_{\rm c}^2|_{\Phi_{\rm c}=0}$ of the one-dimensional repulsive-interaction Hubbard model for electron densities close to the Mott insulating…

The first in situ quantitative synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) study of plastic strain-induced phase transformation (PT) has been performed on $\alpha-\omega$ PT in ultra-pure, strongly plastically predeformed Zr as an example, under…

Classical density functional theory (DFT) is a statistical mechanical theory for calculating the density profiles of the molecules in a liquid. It is widely used, for example. to calculate the density distribution of the molecules in the…

A pressure-induced insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) has recently been discovered in the nodal-line ferrimagnet Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$. The electronic phase transition is accompanied by anomalies in the magnetic ordering temperature and the…

An in situ study of deformation, fracture, and fatigue behavior of silicon as a lithium-ion battery electrode material is presented. Thin films (100-200 nm) of silicon are cycled in a half-cell configuration with lithium metal foil as…

This work assesses a classical density functional theory (DFT) model for predicting macroscopic static contact angles of pure substances and mixtures by comparison to own experimental data. We employ a DFT with a Helmholtz energy functional…

Thermodynamic stability of N$_2$ clathrate hydrates in the sI and sII structures is investigated using density functional theory with several exchange-correlation functionals, explicitly accounting for composition (cage occupancies) and…

In recent years, there have been two independent but related developments in the study of irrelevant deformations in two dimensional quantum field theories (QFTs). The first development is the deformation of a two dimensional QFT by the…

We develop a unified view of topological phase transitions (TPTs) in solids by revising the classical band theory with the inclusion of topology. Re-evaluating the band evolution from an "atomic crystal" [a normal insulator (NI)] to a solid…

As titanium is a highly utilized metal for structural light-weighting, its phases, transformation pathways (transition states), and structures have scientific and industrial importance. Impurities, pressure, and temperature control the…

High-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies have been conducted on three types of Si particles (micron, 100 nm, and 30 nm). The pressure for initiation of Si-I->Si-II phase transformation (PT) essentially increases with a…

The high critical superconducting temperatures ($T_c$s) of metal hydride phases with clathrate-like hydrogen networks have generated great interest. Herein, we employ the Density Functional Theory-Chemical Pressure (DFT-CP) method to…

The high-pressure behaviour of Na$_2$CuF$_4$ is explored by powder neutron diffraction and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. A first-order phase transition is observed to take place between 2.4 - 2.9 GPa, involving a…

Late transition-metal oxides with small charge-transfer energy $\Delta$ raise issues for state-of-the-art correlated electronic structure schemes such as the combination of density functional theory (DFT) with dynamical mean-field theory…

Large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of shear deformation under constant pressures of amorphous silicon, PT from low-density-amorphous (LDA) to high-density-amorphous (HDA) Si, and formation of shear bands (SBs) are performed using…

Most of the 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) are nonmagnetic in pristine form. However, 2D pristine VX2 (X=S, Se, Te) materials are found to be ferromagnetic. Using spin polarized density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we…
