Octahedral Fe$^{2+}$ molecules are particularly interesting as they often exhibit a spin-crossover transition. In spite of the many efforts aimed at assessing the performances of density functional theory for such systems, an…

This article is part-I of a review of density-functional theory (DFT) that is the most widely used method for calculating electronic structure of materials. The accuracy and ease of numerical implementation of DFT methods has resulted in…

BiVO3F is a promising material used in solar energy conversion systems. Here, we first report the calculated structural, electronic, and surface reaction properties using PBE and hybrid density functionals. We found it is a direct band gap…

We use density-functional theory with the local-density approximation to study the structural and ferroelectric properties of SrTiO$_3$ under misfit strains. Both the antiferrodistortive (AFD) and ferroelectric (FE) instabilities are…

Cerium, in which the 4$f$ valence electrons live at the brink between localized and itinerant characters, exhibits varying crystal structures and therefore anomalous physical properties with respect to temperature and pressure.…

Using density functional plus dynamical mean-field theory method (DFT+DMFT) with full self-consistency over the charge density, we study the effect of electronic correlations on the electronic structure, magnetic properties,…

The development of new exchange-correlation functionals within density functional theory means that increasingly accurate information is accessible at moderate computational cost. Recently, a newly developed self-consistent hybrid…
