Fermi-surface deformations in strongly correlated metals, in comparison to results from band-structure calculations, are investigated. We show that correlation-induced interband charge transfers in multi-orbital systems may give rise to…
Naturals and synthetic perovskites are widely used functional materials thanks to their particular physical properties, such as superconductivity, ferroelectricity and photo-activity. Many of these properties are related to static or…
Hybrid organic--inorganic perovskites with broken inversion symmetry provide a fertile ground for uncovering coupled spin-orbit and ferroelectric phenomena. Here, we investigate the layered family (PA)$_2$CsY$_2$X$_7$ (Y = Pb, Sn; X = I,…
Single crystals of the perovskite-type $3d^{1}$ metallic alloy system Ca$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$VO$_3$ were synthesized in order to investigate metallic properties near the Mott transition. The substitution of a Ca$^{2+}$ ion for a Sr$^{2+}$ ion…
The high-symmetry pseudocubic init cell is often used for modelling the electronic structure of halide perovskites. However, direct comparison of the band structure with more realistic low-symmetry phases is impeded by the zone folding. We…

Methylammonium lead iodide perovskites are considered direct bandgap semiconductors. Here we show that in fact they present a weakly indirect bandgap 60 meV below the direct bandgap transition. This is a consequence of spin-orbit coupling…

Pb-based perovskites are considered to be the most efficient materials for energy harvest. However, real-time application is limited because of their toxicity. As a result, lead-free perovskites that offer similar advantages are potential…
