2 outline Brief intro Exhibit A : actinides Exhibit B : iron pnictides Conclusion

3 Weakly Correlated Systems : Success of theoretical approaches are based on having a good reference system to describe the relevant materials. 2

4 “Standard Model of Solids “ Band Theory. Fermi Liquid Theory (Landau 1957). Density Functional Theory (Kohn Sham 1964) energy functional of the density. Reference Frame for Weakly Correlated Systems. Starting point for perturbation theory in the screened Coulomb interactions (Hedin 1965) M. VanSchilfgaarde Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 126406 (2004) + [ - ] Many other properties can be computed, transport, optics, phonons, etc… 3

5 The “free electron” reference frame does not work for strongly correlated materials. Interesting systems with promising properties under intensive investigation. 4

6 How to Make Correlated materials ? Put open shell in a cage Oxygen transition metal ion Cage : e.g 6 oxygen atoms (octahedra) or other ligands/geometry Build crystal with this building block or build layers separated by spacers Transition metal (open shell ) Transition metal ions Rare earth ions Actinides Li x CoO2, Na x CoO2 Battery materials Thermoelectrics VO 2 Room temperature MIT La 1-x SrxMnO3 Colossal Magnetoresistance La 1-x Sr x CuO4 High temperature superconductor 5

7 How to find really interesting correlated materials ? Serendipity An aptitude for making desirable discoveries by accident The Edisonian approach to innovation is characterized by trial and error discovery rather than a systematic theoretical approach. (e.g. carbon microphone, basis of telephone) + E disonian approach 6 The method works ! Resulted in fascinating compounds. Correlated electron materials do “big things “. Large volume collapses, ultra strong magnets, heavy fermions, ………., high temperature superconductivity …… New phenomenal every few years…….. The historical record indicates that Edison's approach was much more complex, that he made use of available theories and resorted to trial and error only when no adequate theory existed But the serendipity part is is a bit slow…. … 6

Others are in progress. Review: (imitations of early implementations were removed in the third generation of LDA+DMFT methods (see for ex. K. Haule K. Kim and C. Yee Phys. Rev. B 81, 195107 (2010) for a detailed description ). Still LDA+DMFT is not a fully ab-initio method, yet. Depends on parameters, F0, F2, F4, F6 (F0 “screened U”) and Edc ( close to that of localized limit ). More important depends on the choice of orbital or projector.[besides one electron stuff + imp solver ]
