Journal ArticleDOI

Ab initio study of ferroelectric domain walls in PbTiO 3

TL;DR: In this paper, the atomistic structure of the 180 and 90 domain boundaries in the ferroelectric perovskite compound was investigated using a first-principles ultrasoft-pseudopotential approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Implementation of ultrasoft pseudopotentials in ab initio molecular dynamics.

TL;DR: Test d'un cadre pour the construction des pseudopotentiels separables ultra-mous proposes recemment par Vanderbilt dans le contexte des calculs de dynamique moleculaire «ab initio» de Car-Parrinello sur les atomes et les molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wannier90 as a community code: new features and applications

TL;DR: Wannier90 as mentioned in this paper is an open-source computer program for calculating maximally-localised Wannier functions (MLWFs) from a set of Bloch states, which is interfaced to many widely used electronic-structure codes thanks to its independence from the basis sets representing these BLoch states.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ab initio calculation of the anomalous Hall conductivity by Wannier interpolation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented an efficient first-principles approach for computing the anomalous Hall conductivity in ferromagnets, using spin-orbit coupling on a uniform and relatively coarse $k$-point mesh.
MonographDOI

Berry Phases in Electronic Structure Theory: Electric Polarization, Orbital Magnetization and Topological Insulators

TL;DR: In this paper, a pedagogical introduction to the important role of Berry phases and curvatures in the physics of electrons in solids is provided, including electric polarization, anomalous Hall conductivity, and the nature of the topological insulating state.
