Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Topological matter has attracted much attention recently and developed its research in a wide region of material science. In the present research, as focusing on flexibility of perovskite structure, the first-principles materials design based on ferroelectric transition-metal oxides has been performed. It was revealed that the polar ionic distortion breaks the inversion symmetry so that the bands are spin split due to the spin-orbit coupling, which in turn results in the spin-valley coupling. Moreover, various material properties, such as thermoelectric effect and magnetism, were carefully investigated to clarify the physical mechanism.
