Turning copper metal into a Weyl semimetal

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore a different mechanism where the occupied $d$ states subjected to a tetrahedral crystal field produce an active manifold behaving as a state with an effective orbital momentum equal to $ensuremath{-}1, and pushing ${j}_{\mathrm{eff}}=1/2$ doublet at a higher energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relative importance of crystal field versus bandwidth to the high pressure spin transition in transition metal monoxides

TL;DR: In this paper, the 3D transition metal monoxides MnO, FeO, CoO and NiO were analyzed as a function of pressure within density functional theory and the role of increasing bandwidth must be considered in any explanation of spin collapse that these materials may exhibit under pressure.

Program LMTART for Electronic Structure Calculations

TL;DR: A computer program LMTART for electronic structure calculations using full potential linear muffin-tin orbital method is described in this paper, which is based on the LMTT method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation Driven Topological Insulator-to-Weyl Semimetal Transition in Actinide System UNiSn

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a modern electronic structure method combining density functional theory of band electrons with dynamical self-energies of strongly correlated states to predict that two well-known phases of actinide compound UNiSn, a paramagnetic semiconducting and antiferromagnetic metallic, correspond to Topological Insulator (TI) and Weyl semimetal (WSM) phases of topological quantum matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple quantum phase transitions of plutonium compounds

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown by quantum Monte Carlo simulations of realistic Kondo lattice models derived from electronic-structure calculations that multiple quantum critical points can be realized in plutonium-based materials.
