The metal to insulator (MIT) transition is accompanied by huge changes in physical responses by the control and tuning of experimental parameters like doping, pressure, chemical composition, and magnetic field. Here, we study the magnetic…

Spin-orbit coupling has been reported to be responsible for the insulating nature of the 5d$^1$ osmate double perovskite Ba$_2$NaOsO$_6$ (BNOO). However, whether spin-orbit coupling indeed drives the metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) in…

Motivated by recent Fermi surface and transport measurements on LaNiO3, we study the Mott Metal-Insulator transitions of perovskite nickelates, with the chemical formula RNiO3, where R is a rare-earth ion. We introduce and study a minimal…

A metal-insulator transition (MIT) in BiFeO$_3$ under pressure was investigated by a method combining Generalized Gradient Corrected Local Density Approximation with Dynamical Mean-Field Theory (GGA+DMFT). Our paramagnetic calculations are…

Pressure-induced insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) has been studied in the van der Waals compound iron thiophosphate (FePS3) using first-principles calculations within the periodic linear combination of atomic orbitals method with hybrid…

Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ has attracted a lot of attention due to its structural and electronic similarities to La$_2$CuO$_4$ which is the parent compound of high-T$_c$ superconducting cuprates. It was proposed to be a strong spin-orbit coupled…

Rare-earth nickelates RNiO3 (R=rare-earth element) exhibit three kinds of phase transitions with decreasing temperature: a structural transition from a pseudo-cubic to a monoclinic phase, a metal- insulator transition (MIT), and a magnetic…

Metal-insulator transition (MIT) compounds are materials that may exhibit insulating or metallic behavior, depending on the physical conditions, and are of immense fundamental interest owing to their potential applications in emerging…

We report on the study of insulator-to-metal transition in post-perovskite compound CaIrO3. It is discovered that a gradual chemical substitution of calcium by yttrium leads to the onset of strong metallic behavior in this compound. This…

In solids, strong repulsion between electrons can inhibit their movement and result in a "Mott" metal-to-insulator transition (MIT), a fundamental phenomenon whose understanding has remained a challenge for over 50 years. A key issue is how…

The metal-insulator transition in correlated electron systems, where electron states transform from itinerant to localized, has been one of the central themes of condensed matter physics for more than half a century. The persistence of this…

We propose a method of controlling the metal-insulator transition of one perovskite material at its interface with a another ferroelectric material based on first principle calculations. The operating principle is that the rotation of…
