In this work using the density functional theory (DFT), we have studied the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of uranium dioxide with antiferromagnetic 1k-, 2k-, and 3k-order structures. Ordinary approximations in DFT, such as…

A detailed exploration of the $f$-atomic orbital occupancy space for UO$_2$ is performed using a first principles approach based on density functional theory (DFT), employing a full hybrid functional within a systematic basis set.…

It turns out that the ground states of some systems are symmetry-broken states in which some property is not symmetrically distributed. In the case of strongly correlated electron systems, that were studied by the DFT+U method, researchers…

Density functional theory (DFT) has been widely applied to a variety of realistic materials but often struggles to explain the properties of correlated systems. The DFT + U method, which introduces a Hubbard U correction to the DFT, has…

The ab initio computational method known as Hubbard-corrected density functional theory (DFT+$U$) captures well ground electronic structures of a set of solids that are poorly described by standard DFT alone. Since lattice dynamical…

HfO$_2$-based ferroelectrics have emerged as promising materials for advanced nanoelectronics, with their robust polarization and silicon compatibility making them ideal for high-density, non-volatile memory applications. Oxygen vacancies,…

Multipolar magnetic phases in correlated insulators represent a great challenge for Density Functional Theory (DFT) due to the coexistence of intermingled interactions, typically spin-orbit coupling, crystal field and complex non-collinear…

The formalism of electronic density-functional-theory, with Hubbard-U corrections (DFT+U), is employed in a computational study of the energetics of U_{1-x} Ce_x O_2 mixtures. The computational approach makes use of a procedure which…

To explore the formation of noncollinear magnetic configurations in materials with strongly correlated electrons, we derive a noncollinear LSDA+$U$ model involving only one parameter $U$, as opposed to the difference between the Hubbard and…

Contradictory theoretical results for oxygen vacancies in SrTiO$_3$ (STO) were often related to the peculiar properties of STO, which is a $d^0$ transition metal oxide with mixed ionic-covalent bonding. Here, we apply, for the first time,…

Correct prediction of the behavior of UO2 crystal, which is an antiferromagnetic system with strongly-correlated electrons, is possible by using a modified density functional theory, the DFT+U method. In the context of DFT+U, the energy of…

Predicting the compositional phase stability of strongly correlated electron materials is an outstanding challenge in condensed matter physics. In this work, we employ the DFT+U formalism to address the effects of local correlations due to…

Uranium dioxide (UO$_2$), one of the most important nuclear fuels, can accumulate excess oxygen atoms as interstitial defects, which significantly impacts thermal properties. In this study, thermal conductivities and inelastic neutron…

The electronic structure of selected rare-earth atoms adsorbed on a free-standing graphene was investigated using methods beyond the conventional density functional theory (DFT+U, DFT+HIA and DFT+ED). The influence of the electron…

First principles density functional theory (DFT) is used to investigate the electronic structure of \beta-MnO2. From collinear spin polarized calculations we find that DFT+U_Eff predicts a gapless ferromagnet in contrast with experiment…
