In the paper, PRB {\bf 77}, 085118 (2008), the authors conclude that the observation of Ti-doping induced half-metallicity in SrRu$_{1-x}$TI$_x$O$_3$ within the limit of local density approximations is not valid as the experimental results…
We use density functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) to study multiple control parameters for tuning the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in CaVO$_3$ thin films. We focus on separating the effects resulting from…
We use a random gap model to describe a metal-insulator transition in three-dimensional semiconductors due to doping and find a conventional phase transition, where the effective scattering rate is the order parameter. Spontaneous symmetry…

A metal can be driven to an insulating phase through distinct mechanisms. A possible way is via the Coulomb interaction, which then defines the Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT). Another possibility is the MIT driven by disorder, the…
The emergence of ferro- and ferrimagnetic behavior in insulating materials is uncommon, largely due to Hund's rules. Utilizing symmetry analysis, first-principles methods, and classical Monte Carlo simulations, \textcolor{black}{we report…
The electrical control of a material's conductivity is at the heart of modern electronics. Conventionally, this control is achieved by tuning the density of mobile charge carriers. A completely different approach is possible in Mott…
We performed dielectric spectroscopy on polypyrrole near the metal-insulator transition (MIT) down to 2 K. We evaluate the dependence of the plasma frequency and the scattering time (t) on the distance to the MIT, characterized by the…
