The self-consistent evaluation of Hubbard parameters using linear-response theory is crucial for quantitatively predictive calculations based on Hubbard-corrected density-functional theory. Here, we extend a recently-introduced approach…

Ferroelectric memories experienced a revival in the last decade due to the discovery of ferroelectricity in HfO$_2$-based nanometer-thick thin films. These films exhibit exceptional silicon compatibility, overcoming the scaling and…

Ferroelectricity in hafnia is often regarded as a breakthrough discovery in ferroelectrics, potentially able to revolutionize the whole field. Despite increasing interests, a comprehensive understanding of the many factors driving the…

We present a DFT study utilizing the Hubbard U correction to probe structural and magnetic disorder in $\mathrm{NaO_{2}}$, primary discharge product of Na-O$_2$ batteries. We show that $\mathrm{NaO_{2}}$ exhibits a large degree of…

Manipulating oxygen vacancies in strongly correlated rare-earth nickelate perovskites (RNiO$_3$) enables the tuning of their elusive metal-insulator transition (MIT), providing a better handle for control over their electronic properties.…

Low-energy instabilities in the hole doped cuprates include, besides short range antiferromagnetic fluctuations and superconductivity, also ubiquitous translational and rotational symmetry breakings. The overwhelming majority of…

Using the real-space Hartree Fock approximation, the magnetic phase diagram of a five-orbital Hubbard model for the iron-based superconductors is studied varying the electronic density $n$ in the range from 5 to 7 electrons per transition…

Since in DFT+U there are multiple self-consistent electronic solutions, the so called metastable states, the elastic constants computed from stress-vs-strain will be incorrect if some of the strained configurations fall into a different…

We have performed an extensive test of the ability of density functional theory within several approximations for the exchange-correlation functional, local density approximation+Hubbard $U$ and local density approximation + dynamic mean…

Hybrid density functionals, which replaces a fraction of density functional theory (DFT) exchange with exact Hartree-Fock (HF) exchange, have been used to study the structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of delta-Plutonium. The…

Plutonium dihydride and trihydride show strikingly similar crystal structures when viewed as close-packed Pu planes with ABC and AB stacking, respectively. The similarity serves as a framework for density functional theory (DFT)…

High-performance batteries, heterogeneous catalysts and next-generation photovoltaics often centrally involve transition metal oxides (TMOs) that undergo charge or spin-state changes. Demand for accurate DFT modeling of TMOs has increased…

We present an implementation of the density-functional theory DFT$+U$$+V$ formalism within the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave (FLAPW) method as implemented in the FLEUR code. The DFT$+U$$+V$ formalism extends…

The article studies the different physical, vibrational, nonlinear optical, and thermodynamical properties of higher homologs 5O.m (m = 14,16) liquid crystalline compounds using density functional theory. The optimized structure of 5O.m (m=…

Using density functional theory (DFT), we investigate mechanical properties of a few 2D metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) having Dirac and flat bands. These porous materials have become a subject of…

Plutonium dioxide is of high technological importance in nuclear fuel cycle and is particularly crucial in long-term storage of Pu-based radioactive waste. Using first-principles density-functional theory, in this paper we systematically…

First principles calculations were performed to study the ground state electronic properties of BaFeO3 (BFO) within the density functional theory (DFT). Adopting generalized gradient approximation (GGA) exchange and correlation functional…

Defect states in 2D materials present many possible uses but both experimental and computational characterization of their spectroscopic properties is difficult. We provide and compare results from 13 DFT and ab initio computational methods…

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…
