The LMTO method based on the density-functional theory and the semi-empirical INDO method based on the Hartree--Fock formalism are used for the supercell study of the F centers in cubic and orthorhombic ferroelectric KNbO3 crystals. Two…
The ab initio linear muffin-tin-orbital (LMTO) formalism and the semi-empirical method of the Intermediate Neglect of the Differential Overlap (INDO) based on the Hartree-Fock formalism are combined for the study of the hole polarons (a…
In applying the semiempirical intermediate neglect of differential overlap (INDO) method based on the Hartree-Fock formalism to a cubic perovskite-based ferroelectric material KNbO3, it was demonstrated that the accuracy of the method is…
An ab initio LMTO approach and semi-empirical quantum chemical INDO method have been used for supercell calculations of basic point defects - F-type centers and hole polarons bound to cation vacancy - in partly covalent perovskite KNbO3. We…
Nb-substituting Fe impurity in KNbO3 is studied in first-principles supercell calculations by the linear muffin-tin orbital method. Possible ways to account for the impurity charge compensation are discussed. Calculations are done in the…

We have performed a systematic first-principles investigation to calculate the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of PbCrO$_{3}$, CrPbO$_{3}$ as well as their equiproportional combination. The local density approximation…
Defect energy formation, lattice distortions and electronic structure of cubic In2O3 with Sn, Ga and O impurities were theoretically investigated using density functional theory. Different types of point defects, consisting of 1 to 4 atoms…
The second and third order nonlinear susceptibilities of the ferroelectric oxides LiNbO$_3$, LiTaO$_3$, and KNbO$_3$ are calculated from first principles. Two distinct methodologies are compared, one approach is based on a perturbative…
Density functional theory was used to study the nonmagnetic (NM) and ferromagnetic (FM) phases of face-centered cubic cerium. Functionals of four levels of approximations for the exchange-correlation energy were used: LDA, PBE, LDA/PBE+$U$,…
