In order to resolve an outstanding discrepancy between experiment and theory regarding the ground-state structure of Mg(BH4)2, we examine the importance of long-range dispersive interactions on the compound's thermodynamic stability.…
Addressing the nature of interaction at the LiBH4-carbon interface is the key to unveiling mechanism for the carbon-facilitated desorption of lithium borohydride (LiBH4). Density functional theory calculations, taking into account the long…
The ground state of solid $^4$He is studied using the diffusion Monte Carlo method and a new trial wave function able to describe the supersolid. The new wave function is symmetric under the exchange of particles and reproduces the…
We report the results of the first-principles calculation on the intermediate compounds of LiBH$_4$. The stability of LiB$_3$H$_8$ and Li$_2$B$_n$H$_n (n=5-12)$ has been examined with the ultrasoft pseudopotential method based on the…
Layered MA$_2$Z$_4$ compounds, structural relatives of MoS$_2$ discovered in 2020, exhibit rich magnetic behavior arising from reduced dimensionality, noncentrosymmetric lattice symmetries, and stacking-dependent exchange interactions.…
Bi$_4$Br$_4$ is a prototypical quasi one-dimensional (1D) material in which covalently bonded bismuth bromide chains are arranged in parallel, side-by-side and layer-by-layer, with van der Waals (vdW) gaps in between. So far, two different…
Because substitutions of BH4- anion with Br can stabilize the hexagonal structure of the LiBH4 at room temperature, leading to a high Li-ion conductivity, its thermodynamic stability has been investigated in this work. The binary LiBH4-LiBr…
We present a variational ansatz for the ground state of a strongly correlated Bose system. This ansatz goes beyond the Jastrow-Feenberg functional form and explicitly enforces coordination shells in the structure of the wavefunction. We…
We have studied the structural behavior of bismuth phosphate under compression. We performed x-ray powder diffraction measurements up to 31.5 GPa and ab initio calculations. Experiments were carried out on different polymorphs; trigonal…
We have studied solid hydrogen up to pressures of 300 GPa and temperatures of 350 K using density functional theory methods and have found "mixed structures" that are more stable than those predicted earlier. Mixed structures consist of…
Li2FeSiO4 is an important alternative cathode for next generation Li-ion batteries due to its high theoretical capacity (330 mA h/g). However, its development has faced significant challenges arising from structural complexity and poor…
Experimental data on the structure of ferroelectric oxide Bismuth Titanate suggests two different kinds of structures i.e. orthorhombic and monoclinic. We have performed density functional theory (DFT) based first principle calculations to…
Derivative structural polytypes coexisting with the rhombohedral A7 structure of elemental bismuth (Bi) have been discovered at ambient condition, based on microstructure analyses of pure Bi samples treated under high pressure and high…
The stability of Lithium intercalated 2H- and 1T allotropes of Molybdenum disulfide (LixMoS2) is studied within a density-functional theory framework as function of the Li content (x) and the intercalation sites. Octahedral coordination of…
The cohesive energies and structural properties of recently predicted, and never synthesized, B$_2$O$_3$ polymorphs are investigated from first principles using density functional theory and high-accuracy many-body methods, namely, the…
The properties of the mixed system LiBH4 LiCl P2S5 are studied with respect to all-solid-state batteries. The studied material undergoes an amorphization upon heating above 601C, accompanied with increased Li+ conductivity beneficial for…
Combining first-principles calculations with a technique for many-body problems, we investigate properties of the transition metal oxide ${\rm Sr_{2}VO_{4}}$ from the microscopic point of view. By using the local density approximation…
We study a Lie algebra of formal vector fields $W_n$ with its application to the perturbative deformed holomorphic symplectic structure in the A-model, and a Calabi-Yau manifold with boundaries in the B-model. We show that equivalent…
In the present work, we report a detailed density functional theory calculation on polymorphic InVO$_4$ phases by means of projector augmented wave method. The computed first-order structural phase transformation from orthorhombic…
Crystal chemistry of M(BH4)n, where M is a 2nd-4th period element, is reviewed. It is shown that except certain cases, the BH4 group has a nearly ideal tetrahedral geometry. Corrections of the experimentally determined H-positions,…
