The highly unusual divalent silver in silver difluoride (AgF$_2$) features a nearly square lattice of Ag$^{+2}$ bridged by fluorides. As a structural and electronic analogue of cuprates, its superconducting properties are yet to be…
A comparative computational study of stability of candidate structures for an as yet unknown silver dichloride AgCl2 is presented. It is found that all considered candidates have a negative enthalpy of formation, but are unstable towards…
The silver-fluorine phase diagram has been scrutinized as a function of external pressure using theoretical methods. Our results indicate that two novel stoichiometries containing Ag+ and Ag2+ cations (Ag3F4 and Ag2F3) are thermodynamically…
Silver chromate ($\mathrm{Ag_{2}CrO_{4}}$) has attracted considerable attention in recent years due to its promising photocatalytic performance, which strongly depends on the crystallographic orientation of its exposed surfaces. A detailed…
Only several compounds bearing Ag(II) cation and other transition metal cation have been known. Herein, we predict stability and crystal structures of hypothetical ternary silver(II) fluorides with copper, nickel and cobalt in 1:1…
Fluoridoargentates(II) represent a fascinating class of silver(II) compounds that exhibit structural and magnetic similarities to cuprate superconductors. However, their synthesis is challenging, leaving their properties largely unexplored.…
Crystal and electronic structure, lattice dynamics and thermodynamic stability of little known mixed valent diamagnetic AgIAgIIIF4 beta form of AgF2 is thoroughly examined for the first time and compared with well known antiferromagnetic…
Predicting and characterizing the crystal structure of materials is a key problem in materials research and development. We report the results of ab initio LDA/GGA computations for the following systems: AgAu, AgCd, AgMg, AgMo*, AgNa,…
Using Density Functional Theory, competition between Mott-Hubbard and intervalence charge transfer mechanism of electron localization is revealed in AgF$_2$, an important silver analogue of oxocuprates. We show that at reduced temperature…
AgF$_2$ is a correlated charge-transfer insulator with properties remarkably similar to insulating cuprates which have raised hope that it may lead to a new family of unconventional superconductors upon doping. We use ab initio computations…
Metallic glasses are excellent candidates for biomedical implant applications due to their inherent strength and corrosion resistance. Use of metallic glasses in structural applications is limited, however, because bulk dimensions are…
We present theoretical study of relative stability as well as of the magnetic and electronic properties of AgF2 and CuF2, in two related structural forms: orthorhombic (ambient pressure form of AgF2) and monoclinic (ambient pressure form of…
High-temperature solid-state reaction between orthorhombic AgF2 and monoclinic CuF2 (y = 0.15, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) in a fluorine atmosphere resulted in coexisting solid solutions of Cu-poor orthorhombic and Cu-rich monoclinic phases with…
This study introduces a novel approach for crystal structure analysis, utilizing Inverse EXAFS Analysis (IEA). To assess the reliability of IEA, we applied it to various experimentally studied materials, including LiCrO2 and CuFeO2. Our…
On the basis of the first-principles evolutionary crystal structure prediction of stable compounds in the Cu-F system, we predict two experimentally unknown stable phases -- Cu2F5 and CuF3. Cu2F5 comprises two interacting magnetic…
We have successfully prepared two novel mixed-valence compounds of silver, Ag(I)Ag(II)F3 and Ag(I)2Ag(II)F4. They may be considered to be long-sought strongly electron-overdoped Ag(II)F2. Their crystal structures indicate that both belong…
The highly non-linear switching behavior of hafnia memristor actually hinders its wide application in neuromorphic computing. Theoretical understanding into its switching mechanism has been focused on the processes of conductive filament…
The crystal structure, resistivity, and magnetic susceptibility of the Li2Ir1-xRuxO3 (x = 0-1) polycrystals have been investigated. We found that the parent antiferromagnetic phase disappears for x > 0.2 and bond dimers appear in the…
In this introductory review, we give an overview of the computational chemistry methods commonly used in the field of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), to describe or predict the structures themselves and characterize their various…
We report a computational survey of chemical doping of silver(II) fluoride, an oxocuprate analog. We find that the ground-state solutions exhibit strong tendency for localization of defects and for phase separation. The additional…
