Electronic Structure Calculations of A2Ti2O7 (A = Dy, Ho, and Y)

Ab initio calculations have been performed on titanate pyrochlores A2Ti2O7 (A = Dy, Ho, and Y) to investigate their electronic structures. The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) + U formalism has been used to correct the strong onsite Coulomb repulsion between the localized 4f electrons. The e...
