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…

Transition metal doping is commonly used for altering the properties of solid-state materials to suit applications in science and technology. Partially filled $d$-shells of transition metal atoms lead to electronic states with diverse…

The archetypical strongly correlated Mott-phenomena compound V2O3 is known to show a paramagnetic metal-insulator transition driven by doping with chromium atoms and/or (negative) pressure. Via charge self-consistent density-functional…

We studied structural, electronic and magnetic properties of a cubic perovskite BaFeO$_{3-\delta}$ ($0 \le \delta \le 0.5$) within the density functional theory using a generalized gradient approximation and a GGA+U method. According to our…

Thickness driven electronic phase transitions are broadly observed in different types of functional perovskite heterostructures. However, uncertainty remains whether these effects are solely due to spatial confinement, broken symmetry or…

The last few decades has seen the rapid growth of interest in the bulk perovskite-type transition metal oxides SrVO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$. The electronic configuration of these perovskites differs by one electron associated to the transition…

First principles calculations through density functional theory (DFT)+$U$ method were performed to assess the effect of Li interstitial doping on the optoelectronic properties of NiO and of cubic, hexagonal, and monoclinic WO$_3$. The…

WTe$_2$ is a multifunctional quantum material exhibiting numerous emergent phases in which tuning of the carrier density plays an important role. Here we demonstrate two non-monotonic changes in the electronic structure of WTe$_2$ upon…

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are used to study the magnetic and ferroelectric properties of Sr$_{1-x}$Ba$_{x}$MnO$_3$, with focus on $x=0.5$, under isotropic volume expansion/compression and biaxial strain. Our results…

Using first-principles density functional theory calculations, we investigated the effect of charge doping in a LaNiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ superlattice. The detailed analysis based on two different simulation methods for doping clearly shows that…

Engineered $Na_{0.75}CoO_2$ is considered a prime candidate to achieve high-efficiency thermoelectric systems to regenerate electricity from waste heat. In this work, three elements with outmost electronic configurations, (1) an open d…

In this study, we investigate effects of boron substitution on the structural and electronic properties of small tungsten clusters using density functional theory (DFT). We construct a series of tungsten boride clusters by replacing…

Density functional theory (DFT) within the local density approximation (LDA) is used to understand the electronic properties of Na1/3CoO2 and Na1/3CoO2(H2O)4/3, which was recently found to be superconducting1. Comparing the LDA charge…

The physical properties of La$_4$Ni$_3$O$_{10}$ with a 2D-like Ruddlesden-Popper-type crystal structure are extraordinarily dependent on temperature and chemical substitution. By introducing Al$^{3+}$ atoms ($x$) randomly at the Ni-sites,…

The dependence of the electrical conductivity on the oxygen partial pressure is calculated for the prototypical perovskite $\Ba\Ti\O_3$ based on data obtained from first-principles calculations within density functional theory. The…

Large electron-electron Coulomb-interactions in correlated systems can lead to a periodic arrangement of localized electrons, the so called "charge-order". The latter is here proposed as a driving force behind ferroelectricity in iron…

Oxygen vacancies are often attributed to changes in the electronic transport for perovskite oxide materials (ABO$_3$). Here, we use density functional theory (DFT) coupled with non-equilibrium Green's functions (NEGF) to systematically…

Potassium tungsten bronzes (K$_x$WO$_3$) are nonstoichiometric oxides in which alkali ions, i.e., K+, occupy one-dimensional tunnels of the hexagonal WO6 framework, enabling coupled ionic-lectronic transport. While their bulk and…

We investigated the metal-insulator transition for epitaxial thin films of the perovskite CaFeO3, a material with a significant oxygen ligand hole contribution to its electronic structure. We find that biaxial tensile and compressive strain…

A common method of adjusting the metal-insulator transition temperature of M$_{1}$ VO$_{2}$ is via disruption of the Peierls pairing by doping, or inputting stress or strain. However, since adding even small amounts of dopants will change…
