Mott Metal-Insulator Transitions in Pressurized Layered Trichalcogenides
Mott Metal-Insulator Transitions in Pressurized Layered Trichalcogenides
Transition metal phosphorous trichalcogenides, MPX_{3} (M and X being transition metal and chalcogen elements, respectively), have been the focus of substantial interest recently because they are unusual candidates undergoing Mott transition in the two-dimensional limit. Here we investigate material properties of the compounds with M=Mn and Ni employing ab initio …
