Intercalation and stacking order modulation are two active ways in manipulating the interlayer interaction of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), which lead to a variety of emergent phases and allow for engineering material…

In this work, we perform first principles DFT calculations to investigate the interplay between magnetic and structural properties in Ni2MnGa. We demonstrate that the relative stability of austenite (cubic) and non-modulated martensite…

Actinide and lanthanide-based materials display exotic properties that originate from the presence of itinerant or localized f-electrons and include unconventional superconductivity and magnetism, hidden order; and heavy fermion behavior.…

The alloying effect on the lattice parameters, isostructural mixing enthalpies and ductility of the ternary nitride systems Cr1-xTMxN (TM=Sc, Y; Ti, Zr, Hf; V, Nb, Ta; Mo, W) in the cubic B1 structure has been investigated using…

In this work, we employ a machine-learning-assisted high-throughput density functional theory framework to systematically investigate the stability, electronic structure, and magnetic ground states of 234 M$_4$X$_3$T$_x$ MXenes. The machine…

In this paper, we report polarized optical microscopy and electrical transport studies of manganese oxides that reveal that the charge ordering transition in these compounds exhibits typical signatures of a martensitic transformation. We…

Mechanical strain is a powerful technique for tuning electronic structure and interactions in quantum materials. In a system with tetragonal symmetry, a tunable uniaxial in-plane strain can be used to probe nematic correlations in the same…

Since the stacking order sensitively affects various physical properties of layered materials, accurate determination of the stacking order is important for studying the basic properties of these materials as well as for device…

The spatial texture of internal degree of freedom of electrons has profound effects on the properties of materials. Such texture in real space can manifest as an emergent magnetic field (or Berry curvature), which is expected to induce…

MXenes and MBenes, which are two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides/nitrides and borides, have been extensively studied for their impressive properties. Recently, we reported a family of transition metal sulfides MSene (M2S) with…

Recent discoveries in two-dimensional (2D) magnetism have intensified the investigation of van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials and further improved our ability to tune their magnetic properties. Tunable magnetism has been widely studied…

Stacking monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has led to the discovery of a plethora of new exotic phenomena, resulting from moir\'e pattern formation. Due to the atomic thickness and high surface-to-volume ratio of…

(2D) lateral heterostructures (LH) combining Ti$_2$C and Ta$_2$C MXenes were investigated by means of first-principles calculations. Our structural and elastic properties calculations show that the lateral Ti$_2$C/Ta$_2$C heterostructure…

In this paper I discuss the electronic structure and properties of a specific, rather unconventional class of transition metal (TM) compounds, e.g. TM oxides, which formally have unusually high values of the oxidation state, or valence, of…

Although two-dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) have fantastic physical and chemical properties as well as wide applications, it remains challenging to produce stable MXenes due to their rapid structural…

Exploratory synthesis in novel chemical spaces is the essence of solid-state chemistry. However, uncharted chemical spaces can be difficult to navigate, especially when materials synthesis is challenging. Nitrides represent one such space,…

The work reports nonmagnetic behavior (0.04 $\mu$B) in two-dimensional (2D) V2C-OF MXene and ferromagnetism in MnO$_2$ adsorbed V2C-OF MXene. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out to study the magnetic moments of…

The family of two-dimensional transition metal carbides, so called MXenes, has recently found new members with ordered double transition metals M$'_2$M$"$C$_2$, where M$'$ and M$"$ stand for transition metals. Here, using a set of…

Layered transition-metal compounds have received great attention owing to their novel physical properties. Here, we present the structural, electronic, thermal, and magnetic properties of BaMn2Sb2 and Ba2Mn3Sb2O2 single crystals, both with…

Tuning the energy landscape of manybody electronic states in extended solids through the inductive effect-a concept widely used in organic chemistry-offers a new, effective strategy for materials development. Here, we demonstrate this…
