Magnetism in systems that do not contain transition metal or rare earth ions was recently
observed or predicted to exist in a wide variety of systems. We summarize both experimental …

Magnetism without d-orbital electrons seems to be unrealistic; however, recent observations
of magnetism in non-magnetic oxides, such as ZnO, HfO2, and MgO, have opened new …

Acceptor-bound holes in oxides often localize asymmetrically at one out of several
equivalent oxygen ligands. Whereas Hartree-Fock (HF) theory overly favors such symmetry …

The main discharge products formed at the cathode of nonaqueous Li–air batteries are
known to be Li2O2 and residual Li2CO3. Recent experiments indicate that the charge …

It is shown that substitution of C or N for O recently proposed as a way to create
ferromagnetism in otherwise nonmagnetic oxide insulators is curtailed by formation of …

The magnetic properties of MgO, MgAl 2 O 4, SrTiO 3, LaAlO 3, LSAT, and ZnO single
crystals were investigated. These crystals show three contributions to the magnetization …

We show both theoretical and experimental evidences of the appearance of ferromagnetism
in MgO thin films. First-principles calculations allow predicting the possibility of the formation …

Electronic correlation effects, usually associated with open d or f shells, have so far been
considered<? format?> in p orbitals only sporadically for the localized 2 p states of first-row …

We study experimentally and theoretically the energetics, structural changes, and charge
flows during the charging and discharging processes for a new high-capacity cathode …

The d0 ferromagnetism of MgO containing neutral point defects has been investigated using
the first-principles method. The generalized gradient approximation (GGA), local density …
