Using density functional theory with added on-site interactions (DFT+U), we study the electronic structure of bulk, monolayer, and bilayer of the layered transition-metal dichalcogenide $1T-TaS_2$. We show that a two-dimensional…

The modulated structure of the martensite phase of Ni2MnGa is revisited using high resolution synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction (SXRPD) measurements, which reveals higher order satellite reflections up to the 3rd order and phason…

Structural modulation is a key ingredient behind the extraordinary (magneto)elastic response of Ni-Mn-Ga martensite, yet its link to fine twinned microstructure and twin-boundary supermobility remains unresolved. Here we analyse martensitic…

Influence of disorder, antisite defects, martensite transition and compositional variation on the magnetic properties and electronic structure of Mn$_2$NiGa and Mn$_{1+x}$Ni$_{2-x}$Ga magnetic shape memory alloys have been studied by using…

Abstract: Layered transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) down to the monolayer (ML) limit provide a fertile platform for exploring charge-density waves (CDWs). Though bulk NbTe2 is known to harbor a single axis 3*1 CDW coexisting with…

We investigate the charge density wave (CDW) instability in single and double layers, as well as in the bulk 2H-NbSe$_{2}$. We demonstrate that the density functional theory correctly describes the metallic CDW state in the bulk…

Density-functional studies of the electron states in the dilute magnetic semiconductor GaN:Mn reveal major differences for the case of the Mn impurity at the substitutional site Mn_Ga versus the interstitial site Mn_I. The splitting of the…

An anomalous $(2\times2)$ charge density wave (CDW) phase emerges in monolayer 1T-TiTe$_2$ which is absent for the bulk compound, and whose origin is still poorly understood. Here, we investigate the electronic band structure evolution…

The structural transitions, magnetic properties, and electronic structures of Co(Fe)-doped MnNiSi compounds are investigated by x-ray powder diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), magnetic measurements, and…

Magnetic 2D materials have achieved significantly consideration owing to their encouraging applications. A variation of these 2D materials by occurrence of defects, by the transition-metal doping or adsorption or by the surface…

The layered transition metal dichalcogenides host a rich collection of charge density wave (CDW) phases in which both the conduction electrons and the atomic structure display translational symmetry breaking. Manipulating these complex…

We perform a theoretical study of the electronic structure and magnetic properties of the prototypical magnetic MAX-phase Mn$_2$GaC with the main focus given to the origin of magnetic interactions in this system. Using the density…

The strain effect on electronic structure and thermoelectric properties of Higher Manganese Silicides (HMSs) Mn4Si7 was studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and through solving Boltzman Transport Equation (BTE). We found that the…

The local atomic structure of Ni-Mn-Ga alloys was explored using Mn and Ga K-edge extended X-ray fine structure (EXAFS) measurement. The changes occuring in the L1$_0$ sub-cell of the martensitic unit cell and the bond lengths obtained from…

We report systematic first principles density functional study on the electronic structure, elastic and optical properties of nitrogen based solid hydrogen storage materials LiNH$_2$, NaNH$_2$, KNH$_2$, and RbNH$_2$. The ground state…

A charge-density wave (CDW) state has a broken symmetry described by a complex order parameter with an amplitude and a phase. The conventional view, based on clean, weak-coupling systems, is that a finite amplitude and long-range phase…

Charge density wave, or CDW, is usually associated with Fermi surfaces nesting. We here report a new CDW mechanism discovered in a 2H-structured transition metal dichalcogenide, where the two essential ingredients of CDW are realized in…

The local environment of Mn atoms in stoichiometric Ni-Mn-Ga Heusler alloys was investigated using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and interpreted with the help of Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods. In cubic austenite, the…
