The self-interaction corrected local spin-density approximation is used to investigate the ground-state valency configuration of transition metal (TM=Mn, Co) impurities in p-type ZnO. Based on the total energy considerations, we find a…

Results from hybrid density functional theory calculations on the thermodynamic stability and optical properties of the Zn vacancy ($V_{\text{Zn}}$) complexed with common donor impurities in ZnO are reported. Complexing $V_{\text{Zn}}$ with…

We present a comprehensive study of the energetics and magnetic properties of ZnO clusters doped with 3d transition metals (TM) using ab initio density functional calculations in the framework of generalized gradient approximation + Hubbard…

Hybrid functional calculations reveal the Zn-O divacancy in ZnO, consisting of adjacent Zn and O vacancies, as an electrically active defect exhibiting charge states ranging from $2+$ to $2-$ within the band gap. Notably, the divacancy…

Self-interaction corrected local spin density approximation calculations were performed for La$_{(1-x)}$Sr$_x$MnO$_3$ (LSMO) ($0.0<x<0.5$). The influence and inter-relationship of Sr doping, magnetic structure, O displacements and phase…

Dopants of transition metal ions in II-VI semiconductors exhibit native 2+ valency. Despite this, 3+ or mixed 3+/2+ valency of iron ions in ZnO was reported previously. Several contradictory mechanisms have been put forward for explanation…

In transition metal doped ZnO, the energy position of dopant 3$d$ states relative to host conduction and valence bands is crucial in determining the possibilty of long range ferromagnetism. Density functional theory based estimates of the…

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…

Hybrid functionals and empirical correction schemes are compared to conventional semi-local density functional theory (DFT) calculations in order to assess the predictive power of these methods concerning the formation energy and the charge…

We study theoretically the current debatable issue about the effect of transition-metal (TM) substitution in iron-based superconductors through treating all of the TM ions as randomly distributed impurities. The extra electrons from TM…

The $s,p-d$ exchange coupling between the spins of band carriers and of transition metal (TM) dopants ranging from Ti to Cu in ZnO is studied within the density functional theory. The $+U$ corrections are included to reproduce the…
