Origin of Pyroelectricity in LiNbO3

Qing Peng, R. E. Cohen

We use molecular dynamics with a first-principles based shell model potential to study pyroelec- tricity in lithium niobate. We find that the primary pyroelectric effect is dominan…

High Pressure Structural Stability of Multiferroic Hexagonal REMnO3

P. Gao, Z. Chen, T. A. Tyson +6

Structural changes in REMnO3 (RE= Y, Ho, Lu) under high pressure were examined by synchrotron x-ray diffraction methods at room temperature. Compression occurs more readily in the…

Pressure-induced phase transition in the electronic structure of palladium nitride

Daniel Åberg, Paul Erhart, Jonathan Crowhurst +3

We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of the electronic structure and equation of state (EOS) of crystalline PdN2. The compound forms above 58 GPa in the pyrite…

Pressure induced Superconductivity in Topological Compound Bi2Te3

J. L. Zhang, S. J. Zhang, H. M. Weng +15

Bi2Te3 compound has been theoretically predicted (1) to be a topological insulator, and its topologically non-trivial surface state with a single Dirac cone has been observed in ph…

Signatures of pressure induced superconductivity in insulating Bi2212

T. Cuk, D. A. Zocco, H. Eisaki +4

We have performed several high pressure electrical resistance experiments on Bi1.98Sr2.06Y0.68Cu2O8, an insulating parent compound of the high-Tc Bi2212 family of copper oxide supe…

Fundamental high pressure calibration from all-electron quantum Monte Carlo calculations

K. P. Esler, R. E. Cohen, B. Militzer +3

We develop an all-electron quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method for solids that does not rely on pseudopotentials, and use it to construct a primary ultra-high pressure calibration bas…
