We present a novel ground state that explain the continuous modulated charge diagonal order recently observed in manganese oxides, at hole densities $x$ larger than one half. In this diagonal phase the charge is modulated with a predominant…
In this paper we perform a high-pressure study of fergusonite-type HoNbO4. Powder x-ray diffraction experiments and ab initio density-functional theory simulations provide evidence of a phase transition at 18.9(1.1) GPa from the monoclinic…
Using first-principles calculations, we study the occurrence of non-collinear magnetic order in monatomic Mn chains. First, we focus on freestanding Mn chains and demonstrate that they exhibit a pronounced non-collinear ground state in a…
Two-dimensional (2D) multiferroic materials with controllable magnetism have promising prospects in miniaturized quantum device applications, such as high-density data storage and spintronic devices. Here, using first-principles…
Layered antiferromagnetic materials have emerged as a novel subset of the two-dimensional family providing a highly accessible regime with prospects for layer-number-dependent magnetism. Furthermore, transition metal phosphorous…
The study of materials behavior under extreme conditions is fundamental to science and modern technology. Fast ramp compression is a unique method for exploring materials behavior and phase transformations under extreme conditions. One…
Molecular nitrogen exhibits remarkable structural diversity near the polymeric transition, where multiple phases are metastable. Here, we report two new molecular phases. The first, $t\zeta$-N$_2$, is a polytype of monoclinic $C2/c$…
Germanates are often used as structural analogs of planetary silicates. We have explored the high-pressure phase relations in Mg$_2$GeO$_4$ using diamond anvil cell experiments combined with synchrotron x-ray diffraction and computations…
Recent advances in tools for crystal structure analysis enabled us to describe a new phenomenon in structural chemistry, which, to this day, has remained hidden. Here we describe a crystal structure with an incommensurate compositional…
Motivated by recent discovery of yttrium-based high-temperature ternary superconducting hydrides (e.g., CaYH$_{12}$, LaYH$_{12}$, and ScYH$_{6}$), we have employed evolutionary algorithm and first-principles calculations to comprehensively…
Density functional theory calculations have been used to identify stable layered Li-$M$-B crystal structure phases derived from a recently proposed binary metal-sandwich (MS) lithium monoboride superconductor. We show that the MS lithium…
We report the magnetic properties of magnetic nano-composite, consisting of different quantity of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles in polymer matrix. The nanoparticles exhibited a typical magnetization blocking, which is sensitive on the variation of…
The phenomenon of colossal magnetoresistance in manganites is generally agreed to be a result of competition between crystal phases with different electronic, magnetic, and structural order; a competition which can be strong enough to cause…
The pressure dependence of the resistivity and structure of La0.60Y0.07Ca0.33MnO3 has been explored in the pressure range from 1 atm to ~7 GPa. The metal to insulator transition temperature (TMI) was found to reach a maximum and the…
Following the idea that hydrogen-rich compounds might be high-T$_c$ superconductors at high pressures, and the very recent breakthrough in predicting and synthesizing hydrogen sulfide with record-high T$_c$ = 203 K, ab initio evolutionary…
Four discrete MnIII/MnII tetra-nuclear complexes with double-cuboidal core were synthesized. dc magnetic measurements show that both Mn2+ - Mn3+ and Mn3+ - Mn3+ magnetic interactions are ferromagnetic in three samples leading to an S = 9…
Motivated by the recently discovered high-$T_c$ bilayer nickelate superconductor La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$, we comprehensively research a bilayer $2\times2\times2$ cluster for different electronic densities $n$ by using the Lanczos method. We also…
In this paper we investigate theoretically the ground state NiAs-type structure of MnAs and we compare the magnetic and structural properties with an hypothetical zincblende structure. A zincblende structure can be obtained, in principle,…
The crystalline structures of lanthanum tetraboride, LaB4, under pressure are investigated using a genetic algorithm method coupled with first-principles calculations. We find two low-enthalpy phases for LaB4 as the thermodynamic ground…
The hexagonal antiferromagnet MnTe has attracted enormous interest as a prototypical example of a spin-compensated magnet in which the combination of crystal and spin symmetries lifts the spin degeneracy of the electron bands without the…
