Electronic structure and bond competition in the polar magnet PbVO${}_3$

Abstract

Density functional electronic structure studies of tetragonal PbVO${}_3$ are reported. The results show a an important role for both Pb 6$p$ - O 2$p$ and V $d$ - O $p$ bonding, with an interplay between these. This is discussed in relation to the possibility of obtaining magnetoelectric behavior.
