Vanadium dioxide is currently considered as one of the most promising metarials for oxide elcteronics. Both planar and sandwich thin-film MOM devices based on VO2 exhibit electrical switching with an S-shaped I-V characteristic, and this…

Vanadium dioxide(VO$_2$) is a paradigmatic example of a strongly correlated system that undergoes a metal-insulator transition at a structural phase transition. To date, this transition has necessitated significant post-hoc adjustments to…

It is believed that the density functional theory (DFT) describes most elements with s, p and d orbitals very well, except some materials that having strongly localized and correlated valence electrons. In this work, we find that the widely…

We present a state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) study which models crucial features of the partially disordered orbital order stacking in the prototypical layered transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS2 . Our results not only…

Ab initio calculation of the electronic properties of materials is a major challenge for solid state theory. Whereas the experience of forty years has proven density functional theory (DFT) in a suitable, e.g. local approximation (LDA) to…

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.…

We present an embedding approach based on localized basis functions which permits an efficient application of the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) to inhomogeneous correlated materials, such as semi-infinite surfaces and heterostructures.…

The metal-insulator transition (MIT) of VO2 is discussed with particular emphasis on the structural instability of the rutile compounds toward dimerization. Ti substitution experiments reveal that the MIT is robust up to 20% Ti…

The LDA+DMFT approach merges conventional band structure theory in the local density approximation (LDA) with a state-of-the-art many-body technique, the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). This new computational scheme has recently become…

Examining phase stabilities and phase equilibria in strongly correlated materials asks for a next level in the many-body extensions to the local-density approximation (LDA) beyond mainly spectroscopic assessments. Here we put the…

Recent neutron scattering experiments on V2O3 show that the magnetic fluctuations on the metallic side of the antiferromagnetic metal-insulator transition are not related to the spin structure of the insulator, but rather to the…

The dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) is employed to study the Mott transition in the semi-infinite Hubbard model at half-filling and zero temperature. We consider the low-index surfaces of the three-dimensional simple-cubic lattice and…

We present an efficient ab initio dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) implementation for quantitative simulations in solids. Our DMFT scheme employs ab initio Hamiltonians defined for impurities comprising the full unit cell or a supercell…

We study the correlated electronic structure and local spin behaviour of the copper-substituted lead-vanadium bromine apatite Pb$_9$Cu(VO$_4$)$_6$Br$_2$ using DFT+DMFT with a two-orbital Cu-centred low-energy model. Simulations are done for…

Vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) is central in the study of ultrafast photoinduced insulator-to-metal phase transitions in strongly correlated materials, and a primary candidate for next-generation light-driven devices. However, the physical…

Dynamical mean-field theory is used to study the three orbital model of the $d^3$ compound SrRu$_2$O$_6$ both with and without explicitly including the O-$p$ states. Depending on the size of the Hund's coupling $J$, at low to intermediate…

While the traditional local-density approximation (LDA) cannot describe Mott insulators, {\it ab-initio} determination of the Hubbard $U$, for example, limits LDA-plus dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) approaches. Here, we attempt to…

We implement a multi-orbital cluster dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT), by improving a sample-update algorithm in the continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo method based on the interaction expansion. The proposed sampling scheme for the…

Determining the ground state of multi-orbital Hubbard models is critical for understanding strongly correlated electron materials, yet existing methods struggle to simultaneously reach zero temperature and infinite system size. The…

We present the first dynamical implementation of the combined GW and dynamical mean field scheme ("GW+DMFT") for first principles calculations of the electronic properties of correlated materials. The application to the ternary transition…
