The double perovskite Ba$_{2}$NaOsO$_{6}$ (BNOO), an exotic example of a very high oxidation state (heptavalent) osmium $d^1$ compound and also uncommon by being a ferromagnetic Mott insulator without Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion, is modeled…
The magnetic field-induced superconductor-insulator-metal transition (SIMT) in partially deuterated $\kappa$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$Cu[N(CN)$_2$]Br, which is just on the Mott boundary, has been observed using the infrared magneto-optical imaging…
The recent observation of a insulator to metal transition (IMT) [I. Loa et al, PRL 87, 125501 (2001)] in pure LaMnO$_3$ at 32 GPa and room temperature, well above the Neel temperature (145 K) and below the Jahn-Teller transition temperature…
Electronic structures of the filled-skutterudite compounds PrRu$_4$P$_{12}$ and SmRu$_4$P$_{12}$, which undergo a metal-insulator transition (MIT) at $T_{\rm MI}$ = 60 K and 16 K, respectively, have been studied by means of optical…
The microscopic mechanism of the hydrogen-induced metal-insulator transition in SmNiO$_3$ is clarified by means of density-functional theory with the Hubbard U correction. While 100% of hydrogen doping per Ni atom has been supposed to be…
Dimensionality reduction induced metal-insulator transitions in oxide heterostructures are usually coupled with structural and magnetic phase transitions, which complicate the interpretation of the underlying physics. Therefore, achieving…
Metallic interfaces between insulating perovskites are often observed in heterostructures combining polar and nonpolar materials. In these systems, the polar discontinuity across the interface may drive an electronic reconstruction inducing…
Magnetic fluctuations in transition metal oxides are a subject of intensive research because of the key role they are expected to play in the transition from the Mott insulator to the unconventional metallic phase of these materials, and…
A combination of density functional and dynamical mean-field theory is applied to the perovskites SrVO$_3$, LaTiO$_3$ and LaVO$_3$. We show that DFT+DMFT in conjunction with the standard fully localized-limit (FLL) double-counting predicts…
We investigated systematic evolutions of structural and electronic properties of LixWO3 films, induced by Li-ion electrochemical reactions. Chronoamperometric Li-ion intercalation could control the amount of Li content up to x ~ 0.5. The…
Metal-insulator transitions (MITs) in correlated oxides offer immense potential for next-generation Mottronic devices. However, their integration into practical applications is often hindered by the coupling of MITs with symmetry-lowering…
Anomalous low temperature electronic and structural behaviour has been discovered in PbRuO3. The structure (space group Pnma, a = 5.56314(1), b = 7.86468(1), c = 5.61430(1) A) and metallic conductivity at 290 K are similar to those of…
While the phase diagrams of the one- and multi-orbital Hubbard model have been well studied, the physics of real Mott insulators is often much richer, material dependent, and poorly understood. In the prototype Mott insulator…
For a strongly correlated material, VO2, near a critical on-site Coulomb energy U/Uc=1, the abrupt Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) rather than the continuous Hubbard MIT is observed by inducing internal optical phonon-coupled holes…
Bilayered Sr3Ru2O7 is an unusual metamagnetic metal with inherently antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) fluctuations. Partial substitution of Ru by Mn results in the establishment of metal-insulator transition (MIT) at TMIT and…
The first-order metal-insulator transition (MIT) in paramagnetic $V_{2}O_{3}$ is studied within the ab-initio scheme LDA+DMFT, which merges the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). With a fixed value of…
We have measured the electrical conductivity of Ge:Ga samples prepared by neutron-transmutation doping of isotopically enriched 70Ge single crystals in order to study the metal-insulator transition (MIT) ruling out an ambiguity due to…
One of the major puzzles in condensed matter physics has been the observation of a Mott-insulating state away from half-filling. The filling-controlled Mott insulator-metal transition, induced via charge-carrier doping, has been extensively…
The Metal-Insulator transition (MIT) in VO2 is characterized by the complex interplay among lattice, electronic and orbital degrees of freedom. In this contribution we investigated the strain-modulation of the orbital hierarchy and the…
In the context of correlated insulators, where electron-electron interactions (U) drive the localization of charge carriers, the metal-insulator transition (MIT) is described as either bandwidth (BC) or filling (FC) controlled. Motivated by…
