Pressure effects on the electronic structure and magnetic properties of infinite-layer nickelates
arxiv(2024)
摘要
Motivated by the discovery of superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates
RNiO_2 (R= rare-earth), and the subsequent enhancement of their T_c with
pressure, we investigate the evolution of the electronic structure and magnetic
properties of this family of materials via first-principles calculations
employing hydrostatic and chemical pressure as tuning knobs. Overall, our
analysis shows that pressure tends to increase the R-5d self-doping effect,
as well as the Ni-d _x^2-y^2 bandwidth, the e_g energy splitting, the
charge transfer energy, and the superexchange (J). Using the energy scale of
J as a predictor of superconducting tendencies, we anticipate that pressure
can indeed be a feasible means to further increase the T_c in this family of
materials.
