Local structure / electronic-structure relationships in functional materials
This proposal is a low-cost/high-gain first step in an ambitious project: namely, to develop a combined neutron scattering and electronic structure calculation approach as a... -
Oxygen vacancies in strontium titanate: a DFT+DMFT study
We address the long-standing question of the nature of oxygen vacancies in strontium titanate, using a combination of density functional theory and dynamical mean-field theory... -
Bloch's theorem in orbital-density-dependent functionals: Band structures fro...
Koopmans-compliant functionals provide an orbital-density-dependent framework for an accurate evaluation of spectral properties; they are obtained by imposing a generalized... -
Vertex function compliant with the Ward identity for quasiparticle self-consi...
We extend the quasiparticle self-consistent approach beyond the GW approximation by using a range-separated vertex function. The developed approach yields band gaps, dielectric... -
Device-to-materials pathway for electron traps detection in amorphous GeSe-ba...
The choice of the ideal material employed in selector devices is a tough task both from the theoretical and experimental side, especially due to the lack of a synergistic... -

Koopmans-compliant functionals provide a novel orbital-density-dependent framework for an accurate evaluation of spectral properties; they are obtained by imposing a generalized... -
Graphene nanoribbons with mixed cove-cape-zigzag edge structure
A recently developed bottom-up synthesis strategy enables the fabrication of graphene nanoribbons with well-defined width and non-trivial edge structures from dedicated... -
Light-induced renormalization of the Dirac quasiparticles in the nodal-line s...
In nodal-line semimetals, linearly dispersing states form Dirac loops in the reciprocal space with a high degree of electron-hole symmetry and a reduced density of states near... -
Mechanism and control parameters of the coupled structural and metal-insulato...
Rare-earth nickelates exhibit a remarkable metal-insulator transition accompanied by a symmetry-lowering structural distortion. Using model considerations and first-principles... -
Fully ab-initio electronic structure of Ca₂RuO₄
The reliable ab-initio description of strongly correlated materials is a long-sought capability in condensed matter physics. The GW+EDMFT method is a promising scheme, which... -
Discovery of Ĉ₂ rotation anomaly in topological crystalline insulator SrPb
Topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) are insulating electronic states with nontrivial topology protected by crystalline symmetries. Recently, theory has proposed new... -
Computational design of moiré assemblies aided by artificial intelligence
Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials offer a materials platform with potential applications from energy to information processing devices. Although some single- and few-layer... -
Optimizing the thermodynamics and kinetics of the triplet-pair dissociation i...
Singlet fission (SF) is a two-step process in which a singlet splits into two triplets throughout the so-called correlated triplet-pair (1TT) state. Intramolecular SF (iSF)... -
OSCAR: An extensive repository of chemically and functionally diverse organoc...
We introduce OSCAR, a repository of thousands of experimentally derived (OSCAR seed and CSD-extracted) and combinatorially enriched organocatalysts (OSCAR!(NHC) and OSCAR!(DHBD)... -
Dynamics of the Bulk Hydrated Electron from Many‐Body Wave‐Function Theory
Trajectories and spin densities for the bulk hydrated electron at the MP2 level of theory. The data represent the first ab initio molecular dynamics study of the hydrated... -
Effect of charge self-consistency in DFT+DMFT calculations for complex transi...
We investigate the effect of charge self-consistency (CSC) in density-functional theory plus dynamical mean-field theory calculations compared to simpler “one-shot” calculations... -
DFT+DMFT study of oxygen vacancies in a Mott insulator
Oxygen vacancies are a common source of excess electrons in complex oxides. In Mott insulators, these additional electrons can induce a metal-insulator transition (MIT),... -
