We use the LDA+U approach to search for possible ordered ground states of LaSrCoO$_4$. We find a staggered arrangement of magnetic multipoles to be stable over a broad range of Co $3d$ interaction parameters. This ordered state can be…

5$d$ transition metal oxides host a variety of exotic phases due to the comparable strength of Coulomb repulsion and spin-orbit coupling. Herein, by pursuing density-functional studies on a delta-doped quasi-two-dimensional iridate…

We report charge-transfer up to a single electron per interfacial unit cell across non-polar heterointerfaces from the Mott insulator LaTiO3 to the charge transfer insulator LaCoO3. In high-quality bi- and tri-layer systems grown using…

In the present paper, the Gutzwiller density functional theory (LDA+G) has been applied to study a bilayer system of LaCoO$_3$ grown along the $(111)$ direction on SrTiO$_3$. The LDA calculations show that there are two nearly flat bands…

Transition-metal ions with $5d^2$ electronic configuration in a cubic crystal field are prone to have a vanishing dipolar magnetic moment but finite higher-order multipolar moments, and they are expected to exhibit exotic physical…

In this study, the magnetism and electronic structure of LaTiO$_3$ bilayers along both the ($001$) and ($111$) orientations are calculated using the density functional theory. The band insulator LaScO$_3$ is chosen as the barrier layer and…

Employing a first-principles and model Hamiltonian approach, we work out the electronic properties of polar-polar LaVO$_3$/KTaO$_3$ (LVO/KTO, 001) heterostrctures, with up to six layers of KTO and five layers of LVO. Our analyses indicate…

We obtain the electronic states and structures of two-dimensional cobalt oxides, Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$ (x=0, 0.35, 0.5 and 0.75) by utilizing the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbitals (FP-LMTO) methods, from which some essential electronic…

We investigate the electronic and structural properties of CuO, which shows significant deviations from the trends obeyed by other transition-metal monoxides. Using an extended Hubbard corrective functional, we uncover an orbitally ordered…

The electronic structures of ABO3 ferroelectrics are calculated within the density functional theory, and their evolution is analyzed as the crystal-field symmetry changes from cubic to rhombohedral via tetragonal phases. Electronic…

$\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ has been proposed recently as an excellent playground for exploring Kitaev physics on a two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice. However, structural clarification of the compound has not been completed, which is crucial in…

Entanglement of spin and orbital degrees of freedom drives the formation of novel quantum and topological physical states. Discovering new spin-orbit entangled ground states and emergent phases of matter requires both experimentally probing…

LaAlO3/SrTiO3 structures showing high mobility conduction have recently aroused large expectations as they might represent a major step towards the conception of all-oxide electronics devices. For the development of these technological…
