The structural analogue of iron-based superconductors the BaMn$_2$P$_2$ and BaMn$_2$As$_2$ compounds under hydrostatic pressure upto 140 GPa were studied within the framework of DFT+U. The transition from an antiferromagnetic (AFM)…

We study theoretically the zero temperature phase transition in two dimensions from a Fermi liquid to a paramagnetic Mott insulator with a spinon Fermi surface. We show that the approach to the bandwidth controlled Mott transition from the…

The bulk electronic structure of NiS$_{2-x}$Se$_x$ is studied across the bandwidth-control Mott transition (BCMT) by soft X-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The microscopic picture of the BCMT in this multiband non-half-filled…

At $T_N\simeq 305~\text{K}$ the layered insulator BaCoS$_2$ transitions to a columnar antiferromagnet that signals non-negligible magnetic frustration despite the relatively high $T_N$, all the more surprising given its quasi…

The metal-insulator and spin state transitions of CoO under high pressure are studied by using density functional theory combined with dynamical mean-field theory. Our calculations predict that the metal-insulator transition in CoO is a…

We present a detailed NMR study of the insulator to metal transition induced by an applied pressure $p$ in the A15 phase of Cs$_{3}$C$_{60}$. We evidence that the insulating antiferromagnetic (AF) and superconducting (SC) phases only…

An abrupt first-order metal-insulator transition (MIT) without structural phase transition is first observed by current-voltage measurements and micro-Raman scattering experiments, when a DC electric field is applied to a Mott insulator…

We employ a combination of the \emph{ab initio} band structure methods and dynamical mean-field theory to determine the electronic structure and phase stability of paramagnetic FeO at high pressure and temperature. Our results reveal a…

Metamagnetism in antiferromagnets exhibits distinct critical behaviors and dynamics when invoking spin reversal and rotation. Here we show a 0.05% anisotropic strain suffices to in-situ modulate the metamagnetic critical field of the Mott…

Among the complex many-body systems, the metal-insulator transition stands out as a cornerstone and a particularly fertile ground for scientific inquiry. The established models including Mott insulator, Anderson localization and Peierls…

We report a detail theoretical study of the electronic structure and phase stability of transition metal oxides MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO in their paramagnetic cubic B1 structure by employing dynamical mean-field theory of correlated electrons…

V2O3 is the prototype system for the Mott transition, one of the most fundamental phenomena of electronic correlation. Temperature, doping or pressure induce a metal to insulator transition (MIT) between a paramagnetic metal (PM) and a…

Unique features of non-magnetic insulator phase are shown, and phase diagram for t-t' Hubbard model on square lattice is presented. Using the path-integral renormalization group method, we find antiferromagnetic phase for small next-nearest…

Spin-orbit coupling has been reported to be responsible for the insulating nature of the 5d$^1$ osmate double perovskite Ba$_2$NaOsO$_6$ (BNOO). However, whether spin-orbit coupling indeed drives the metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) in…

We present a combined high-resolution x-ray diffraction and x-ray resonant magnetic scattering (XRMS) study of as-grown BaFe2As2. The structural/magnetic transitions must be described as a two-step process. At T_S = 134.5 K we observe the…

Exotic quantum phenomena often emerge near an electronic delocalization transition (EDT) from an antiferromagnetic insulating phase to a strongly correlated metallic state under pressure. We report the pressure-induced structural and…

The study of the strength of correlations in Na$_x$CoO$_2$ is extended to the x=0 end of the phase diagram where Mott insulating behavior has been widely anticipated. Inclusion of correlation as modeled by the LDA+U approach leads to a Mott…

We use synchrotron x-ray diffraction and electrical transport under pressure to probe both the magnetism and the structure of single crystal NiS2 across its Mott-Hubbard transition. In the insulator, the low-temperature antiferromagnetic…

NaOsO$_{\text{3}}$ undergoes a metal-insulator transition (MIT) at 410 K, concomitant with the onset of antiferromagnetic order. The excitation spectra have been investigated through the MIT by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at…

We study the structural and magnetic orders in electron-doped BaFe2-xNixAs2 by high-resolution synchrotron X-ray and neutron scatterings. Upon Ni-doping x, the nearly simultaneous tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural T_s and…
