An extensive {\it ab initio} study of the physical properties of both linear and zigzag atomic chains of all 4$d$ and 5$d$ transition metals (TM) within the GGA by using the accurate PAW method, has been carried out. All the TM linear…
For the metals Au, Pt and Ir it is possible to form freely suspended monatomic chains between bulk electrodes. The atomic chains sustain very large current densities, but finally fail at high bias. We investigate the breaking mechanism,…
We present a Tight-Binding Molecular Dynamics investigation of the stability, the geometrical and the electronic structure of suspended monatomic transition metal chains. We show that linear and stable monatomic chains are formed at…
We study the stability and structure of self-assembled atomic chains on Si(111) induced by monovalent, divalent and trivalent adsorbates, using first-principles total-energy calculations and scanning tunneling microscopy. We find that only…
Based on first-principles density functional theory calculations we explore electronic and magnetic properties of experimentally producible sandwiches and infinite wires made of repeating benzene molecules and transition-metal atoms of V,…
A multitude of observed boron-based materials have outstanding superconducting, mechanical, and refractory properties. Yet, the structure, the composition, and the very existence of some reported metal boride (M-B) compounds have been a…
Twelve two-dimensional group-IV monochalcogenide monolayers (SiS, SiSe, SiTe, GeS, GeSe, GeTe, SnS, SnSe, SnTe, PbS, PbSe, and PbTe) with a buckled honeycomb atomistic structure--belonging to symmetry group P3m1--and an out-of-plane…
Based on first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that magnetism impedes the formation of long chains in break junctions. We find a distinct softening of the binding energy of atomic chains due to the creation of magnetic moments that…
In this paper we investigated structural, electronic and magnetic properties of 3d (light) transition metal (TM) atomic chains using first-principles pseudopotential plane wave calculations. Periodic linear, dimerized linear and planar…
The zig-zag Nitrogen (N) chain similar to the Ch-N structure has long been considered a potential high energy density structure. However, all previously predicted zig-zag N chain structures similar to Ch-N exhibit imaginary frequencies in…
The total energy of the transverse spin-spiral wave as a function of the wave vector for all 3$d$ transition metal atomic chains has been calculated within {\it ab initio} density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation.…
It is found that all the zigzag chains except the nonmagnetic (NM) Ni and antiferromagnetic (AF) Fe chains which form a twisted two-legger ladder, look like a corner-sharing triangle ribbon, and have a lower total energy than the…
With the motivation of searching for new superconductors in the Mg-B system, we performed ab initio evolutionary searches for all the stable compounds in this binary system in the pressure range of 0-200 GPa. We found previously unknown,…
We report on the quantum criticality of Pr$_3$Ru$_4$Sn$_{13}$ revealed by our new material research. Pr$_3$Ru$_4$Sn$_{13}$ has been synthesized by flux growth and characterized by single X-ray, powder X-ray, and powder neutron diffraction…
A quasi one--dimensional system of trapped, repulsively interacting atoms (e.g., an ion chain) exhibits a structural phase transition from a linear chain to a zigzag structure, tuned by reducing the transverse trap potential or increasing…
Using first-principles calculations, we study the occurrence of non-collinear magnetic order in monatomic Mn chains. First, we focus on freestanding Mn chains and demonstrate that they exhibit a pronounced non-collinear ground state in a…
Properties of the $\omega$ structure are investigated for 27 transition elements from the viewpoints of thermodynamical and mechanical stability based on first-principles calculations. The thermodynamical stability of the $\omega$ structure…
New metal-ordered manganites RBaMn_{2}O_{6} have been synthesized and investigated in the structures and electromagnetic properties. RBaMn_{2}O_{6} can be classified into three groups from the structural and electromagnetic properties. The…
A computational search for stable structures among both $\alpha$ and $\beta$ phases of ternary ATB4 borides (A= Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Al, Ga, and Zn, T is 3d or 4d transition elements) has been performed. We found that $\alpha$-ATB4 compounds…
The low-temperature properties of the so-called ''charge ordered'' state in 50% doped perovskite manganites are described from the viewpoint of the magnetic spin ordering. In these systems, the zigzag antiferromagnetic ordering, combined…
