The unique surface edge states make topological insulators a primary focus among different applications. In this article, we synthesized a large single crystal of Niobium(Nb)-doped Bi2Se3 topological insulator (TI) with a formula…

Boron doped diamond is extensively studied for its use in tribological and electrochemical applications due to its remarkable physical and chemical properties. However, ambient conditions play a major role to its macroscopically observed…

New generation Indium based lead-free Cs2InAgCl6 is a promising halide material in photovoltaic applications due to its good air stability and non-toxic behavior. But its wide band gap (>3 eV) is not suitable for solar spectrum and hence…

Emergence of inorganic metal halide perovskites as multifunctional optoelectronic materials are due to their exceptional tunability in optoelectronic properties. This study sought to enhance the physical and mechanical properties of…

With an indirect band gap in the visible and a direct band gap at a much higher energy, boron phosphide (BP) holds promise as an unconventional p-type transparent conductor. Previous experimental reports deal almost exclusively with…

Ab-initio spin-polarized Density Functional Theory plus U is used to study the electronic and magnetic properties of tetragonal doped barium titanate (Ba$_{1-x}$Eu$_x$O$_3$) system for different europium (Eu$^{3+}$) concentrations. For this…

Diamond is an outstanding semiconductor for extreme electronics, yet reproducible n-type doping remains a long-standing challenge. Here we demonstrate stable n-type single-crystal diamond grown in a single step by a precisely controlled…

Insulator to metal (IMT) transition (T$_t$ $\sim$ 341 K) in the VO2 accompanies transition from an infrared (IR) transparent to IR opaque phase. Tailoring of the IMT and associated IR switching behavior can offer potential thermochromic…

The 5d-electron based BaIrO3 is a nonmetallic weak ferromagnet with a Curie temperature at Tc=175 K. Its largely extended orbitals generate strong electron-lattice coupling, and magnetism and electronic structure are thus critically linked…

While doping is widely used for tuning physical properties of perovskites in experiments, it remains a challenge to exactly know how doping achieves the desired effects. Here, we propose an empirical and computationally tractable model to…

Diamond, a wide band-gap semiconductor, can be engineered to exhibit superconductivity when doped heavily with boron. The phenomena has been demonstrated in samples grown by chemical vapour deposition where the boron concentration exceeds…

The insulator to metal transition in LaTiO_3 induced by La substitution via Sr is studied within multi-band exact diagonalization dynamical mean field theory at finite temperatures. It is shown that weak hole doping triggers a large…

BaIrO3 is a magnetic insulator driven by the spin-orbit interaction (SOI), whereas BaRuO3 is a paramagnet and exhibits a crossover from a metallic to an insulating regime. Our investigation of structural, magnetic, transport and thermal…

We report the influence on the superconducting critical temperature $T_c$ in doped SrTiO$_3$ of the substitution of the natural $^{16}$O atoms by the heavier isotope $^{18}$O. We observe that for a wide range of doping this substitution…

Using the hybrid density functional theory and \textit{ab initio} atomistic thermodynamics, we report monodoping of non-metal (N) or metal (Mn) in SrTiO$_3$ can induce visible light absorption, but none of them are suitable to ameliorate…

$RE$NiO$_3$ is a negative charge transfer energy system and exhibits a temperature-driven metal-insulator transition (MIT), which is also accompanied by a bond disproportionation (BD) transition. In order to explore how hole doping affects…

Hybrid perovskites (CH3NH3PbI3) is one of the most promising novel materials for solar harvesting. Toxicity of lead (Pb), however, has always remained a concern. We investigated the electronic structure of complete replacement of Pb by…
