Several reports about infinite-layer nickelate thin films suggest that the superconducting critical temperature versus chemical doping phase diagram has a dome-like shape, similar to cuprates. Here, we demonstrate a highly reproducible…
Quantum nuclear zero-point motions in solid H$_2$ and D$_2$ under pressure are investigated at 80 K up to 160 GPa by first-principles path-integral molecular dynamics calculations. Molecular orientations are well-defined in phase II of…
Metal-insulator transitions strongly coupled with lattice were found in Bi1-xLaxNiO3. Synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction revealed that pressure (P ~ 3 GPa, T = 300 K), temperature (T ~ 340 K, x = 0.05), and La-substitution (x ~ 0.075, T =…
To investigate the detailed magnetic properties of a recently discovered superconducting nickelate Nd6Ni5O12, we performed the first-principles electronic structure calculation based on density functional theory. The band dispersion,…
Infinite-layer nickelates $R_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$NiO$_{2}$ ($R$ = La, Pr, Nd) are a class of superconductors with structural similarities to cuprates. Although long-range antiferromagnetic order has not been observed for these materials, magnetic…
Dependence of structural parameters on the size of nanoparticles is a topic of general interest where the effect of shape is often neglected. We report a comprehensive study on size dependent structural parameters of ZnO nanostructures (NS)…
The importance of quantum effects for exotic nuclear shapes is demonstrated. Based on the example of a sheet of nuclear matter of infinite lateral dimensions but finite thickness, it is shown that the quantization of states in momentum…
Superconducting nickelates appear to be difficult to synthesize. Since the chemical reduction of ABO3 (A: rare earth; B transition metal) with CaH2 may result in both, ABO2 and ABO2H, we calculate the topotactic H binding energy by density…
Supercooled water is expected to exhibit a liquid--liquid phase transition between low- and high-density liquid states, possibly terminating in a liquid--liquid critical point in the experimentally difficult no man's land. Because the…
Identification of superconductivity in the Ruddlesden-Popper phases of nickelates under high pressure remains challenging. Here, we report a comprehensive study of the crystal structure, resistance, and Meissner effect in single crystals of…
The finite size and surface roughness effects on the magnetization of NiO nanoparticles is investigated. A large magnetic moment arises for an antiferromagnetic nanoparticle due to these effects. The magnetic moment without the surface…
Isotopic effects are relevant to understand several properties of solids, and have been thoroughly analyzed along the years. These effects may depend on the dimensionality of the considered solid. Here we assess their magnitude for…
The recent discovery of superconductivity in Sr-doped NdNiO$_2$, with a critical temperature of $10-15$ K suggests the possibility of a new family of nickel-based high-temperature superconductors (HTS). NdNiO$_{2}$ is the $n=\infty$ member…
The series of nickel-oxide compounds LaNiO$_3$ (formal Ni$(d^7)$), La$_2$NiO$_4$ (formal Ni$(d^8)$) and LaNiO$_2$ (formal Ni$(d^9)$) is investigated by first-principles many-body, using a combination of density functional theory,…
We report the observation of superconductivity in infinite-layer Ca-doped LaNiO$_2$ (La$_{1-x}$Ca$_x$NiO$_2$) thin films and construct their phase diagram. Unlike the metal-insulator transition in Nd- and Pr-based nickelates, the undoped…
The recently emerging superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates, with isostructure and isoelectron of cuprates, provides a new platform to explore the pairing mechanism of high-temperature superconductors. In this work, we studied the…
The recent discovery of superconductivity in La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ and La$_4$Ni$_3$O$_{10}$ under high pressure stimulates intensive research interests. These nickelates crystallize in an orthogonal/monoclinic structure with tilted NiO$_6$…
The discovery of superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates has ignited stark interest within the scientific community, particularly regarding its likely unconventional origin. Conflicting magnetotransport measurements report either…
We analyze the electronic structure of different surface terminations for infinite-layer nickelates. Surface NiO$_2$ layers are found to be buckled, in contrast to planar bulk layers. While the rare-earth terminated surface fermiology is…
Reduced dimensionality and strong electronic correlations, which are among the most important ingredients for cupratelike high-Tc superconductivity, characterize also the physics of nickelate-based heterostructures. Starting from the…
