Modeling ferroelectric materials from first principles is one of the successes of density-functional theory, and the driver of much development effort, requiring an accurate description of the electronic processes and the thermodynamic…
Inspired by the recent discovery of a new polar metal LiReO$_3$ by K. Murayama, \textit{et al}, we calculate the temperature($T$)-dependent crystal structures of Li$B$O3 with $B$ = Ta, W, Re, Os, using the self-consistent phonon (SCPH)…
We identify a first-order, isosymmetric transition between a ferrielectric (FiE) and ferroelectric (FE) state in $A$-site ordered LaScO$_{3}$/BiScO$_{3}$ and LaInO$_{3}$/BiInO$_{3}$ superlattices. Such a previously unreported ferroic…
The nonlinear Hall effect, which is the second-order harmonic charge Hall effect from the Berry curvature dipole in momentum space, has received much attention recently. As the responses to higher harmonics of the driving ac electric field…
Charge-order-driven ferroelectrics are an emerging class of functional materials, distinct from conventional ferroelectrics, where electron-dominated switching can occur at high frequency. Despite their promise, only a few systems…
While the anomalous Hall effect takes place typically in ferromagnets with finite magnetization, large anomalous Hall conductivity in noncollinear antiferromagnetic systems has been recently observed and attracted much attention. In this…
For a long period of time, we have been seeking how Berry curvature influnces the transport properties in materials breaking time-reversal symmetry. In time-reversal symmetric material, there will be no thermoelectric current induced by…
We theoretically investigate a nonlinear spin Hall effect in $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric antiferromagnetic metals, which serve as an efficient spin current generator. We elucidate that an emergent spin-dependent Berry curvature dipole is a…
Topological chiral crystals have emerged as a fertile material platform for investigating optical phenomena derived from the distinctive Fermi surface Berry curvature and orbital magnetic moment textures around multifold chiral band…
The novel ferroelectric-like structural transition observed in metallic LiOsO$_3$ [Y. Shi et al., Nat. Mater. 12, 1024 (2013)], has invoked many theoretical and experimental interests. In this work, we have performed polarized and…
First-principles calculations were performed to investigate the ferroelectric properties of barium titanate and bismuth ferrite, as well as phonon dispersion of BaTiO3, using density functional theory and density functional perturbation…
In ferroelectricity, atomic-scale dipole moments interact collectively to produce strong electro-mechanical coupling and switchable macroscopic polarization. Hence, the functionality of ferroelectrics emerges at a solid-solid phase…
A theory to describe the dielectric anomalies and the ferroelectric phase transition induced by oxygen isotope replacement in SrTiO$_3$ is developed. The proposed model gives consistent explanation between apparently contradictory…
The electronic functionality of thin films is governed by their interfaces. This is very important for the ferroelectric (FE) state which depends on thin-film clamping and interfacial charge transfer. Here we show that in a heterostructure…
The presence of electron correlations in a system with topological order can lead to exotic ground states. Considering single crystals of LaAgSb2 which has a square net crystal structure, one finds multiple charge density wave transitions…
In polar oxide interfaces phenomena such as conductivity, superconductivity, magnetism, one-dimensional conductivity and Quantum Hall states can emerge at the polar discontinuity. Combining controllable ferroelectricity at such interfaces…
The temperature-dependent polarization of SrTiO_3 thin films is investigated using confocal scanning optical microscopy. A homogeneous out-of-plane and inhomogeneous in-plane ferroelectric phase are identified from images of the linear…
We study from first-principles calculations the ferroelectric structural phase transition of Pb$_5$Ge$_3$O$_{11}$ crystal. The calculations of phonons and Born effective charges of the paraelectric phase allow us to identify a polar…
The 5d iridium-based transition metal oxides have gained broad interest because of their strong spin-orbit coupling which favors new or exotic quantum electronic states. On the other hand, they rarely exhibit more mainstream orders like…
The second-order nonlinear Hall effect illuminates a frequency-doubling transverse current emerging in quantum materials with broken inversion symmetry even when time-reversal symmetry is preserved. This nonlinear response originates from…
