The structure and ground state electronic structure of the recently synthesized SrPdO$_3$ perovskite [A. Galal {\em et al.}, J. Power Sources, {\bf 195}, 3806 (2010)] have been studied by means of screened hybrid functional and the GW…

Using the full-potential linearized-augmented-plane-wave (FLAPW) method, we have analyzed systematically the trends in the structural and electronic properties of the 3d and 4d transition-metal oxides SrMO_3 (M = Ti, V, Zr and Nb). The…

Perovskite oxides attract increasing attention due to their broad potential in many applications. Understanding their surfaces is challenging, though, because the ternary composition of the bulk allows for multiple stable surface…

Near or less than 10% Nb substitution on the Ti site in perovskite SrTiO$_3$ results in metallic behavior, in contrast to what is seen in BaTiO$_3$. Given the nearly identical structure and electron counts of the two materials, the distinct…
