Double perovskite compounds containing 5d transition metal elements have been extensively studied as platforms for multipolar order phenomena stemming from spin-orbit-entangled 5d electrons. In this study, we examine the interplay between…
First principles linear response calculations are used to investigate the lattice dynamics of what is thought to be the third most abundant phase in the lower mantle, CaSiO_3 perovskite. The commonly assumed cubic structure (Pm3m) is found…
We present an \textit{ab-initio} study of the quasi-2D layered perovskite Sr$_3$Hf$_2$O$_7$ com\-pound, performed within the framework of the Density Functional Theory and lattice dynamics analysis. At high temperatures, this compound takes…
Rocky planets are thought to comprise compounds of Mg and O as these are among the most abundant elements, but knowledge of their stable phases may be incomplete. MgO is known to be remarkably stable to very high pressure and chemically…
In a cubic environment, the ground state of spin-orbit coupled $5d^2$ ions is a non-Kramers $E_g$ doublet, which hosts quadrupole and octupole moments. A series of $5d^2$ osmium double perovskites Ba$_2M$OsO$_6$ (M = Mg, Ca, Zn, Cd) have…
We predict a new candidate high-temperature high-pressure structure of FeSiO$_3$ with space-group symmetry Cmmm by applying an evolutionary algorithm within DFT+U that we call post-perovskite II (PPv-II). An exhaustive search found no other…
URu$_2$Si$_2$ is surely one of the most mysterious of the heavy-fermion compounds. Despite more than twenty years of experimental and theoretical works, the order parameter of the transition at $T_0 = 17.5$ K is still unknown. The state…
The electrical conductivity of magnesium silicate MgSiO3 has been studied, using the framework of the first-principles density functional theory and the Boltzmann transport theory, under the thermodynamic conditions of the Earth's lower…
Two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites offer a unique platform to investigate the ground-state of materials possessing significant anharmonicity. In contrast to three-dimensional perovskites, their 2D counterparts offer substantially fewer…
The effect of compression on the magnetic ground state of Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ is studied with x-ray resonant techniques in the diamond anvil cell. The weak interlayer exchange coupling between square-planar 2D IrO$_2$ layers is readily modified…
The archetypal $3d$ Mott insulator hematite, Fe$_2$O$_3$, is one of the basic oxide components playing an important role in mineralogy of Earth's lower mantle. Its high pressure-temperature behavior, such as the electronic properties,…
We report the comprehensive experimental results identifying the magnetic spin ordering and the magnetization dynamics of a double perovskite Pr2CoFeO6 by employing the (dc and ac) magnetization, powder neutron diffraction (NPD) and X-ray…
In pursue of a systematic characterization of rare-earth vanadates under compression, in this work we present a multifaceted study of the phase behavior of zircon-type orthovanadate PrVO$_4$ under high pressure conditions, up until 24 GPa.…
The crystallographic and magnetic phase diagram of the n=2 layered manganite La2-2xSr1+2xMn2O7 in the region x=>0.5 has been studied using temperature dependent neutron powder diffraction. The magnetic phase diagram reveals a progression of…
We present globally inverted pressure-temperature (P-T) phase diagrams up to 5,000 GPa for four fundamental planetary materials, Fe, MgO, SiO2, and MgSiO3, derived from logistic regression and supervised learning, together with an…
The compression behavior of zircon-type samarium orthovanadate, SmVO4, has been investigated using synchrotron-based powder x-ray diffraction and ab-initio calculations up to 21 GPa. The results indicate the instability of ambient zircon…
The post-perovskite phase of (Mg,Fe)SiO3 is believed to be the main mineral phase of the Earth's lowermost mantle (the D" layer). Its properties explain numerous geophysical observations associated with this layer - for example, the D''…
Among Universe's most consequential events are large impacts generating rapidly-evolving extreme pressures and temperatures. Crystalline and amorphous forms of (Mg, Fe)2SiO4 are abundant and widespread, within planets and in space. The…
Synchrotron X-ray diffraction patterns were measured and analyzed for a polycrystalline sample of the room-temperature ferromagnet Sr3.12Er0.88Co4O10.5 from 300 to 650 K, from which two structural phase transitions were found to occur…
The primary phase of the Earth's lower mantle, (Al, Fe)-bearing bridgmanite, transitions to the postperovskite (PPv) phase at Earth's deep mantle conditions. Despite extensive experimental and ab initio investigations, there are still…
