Abstract:The van der Waals oxide dichlorides M OX2 (M = V, Ta, Nb, Ru, and Os; X = halogen element), with different electronic densities, are attracting considerable attention. Ferroelectricity, spin-singlet formation, and orbital-selective Peierls phases were reported in this family with d 1 or d 2 electronic configurations, all believed to be caused by the strongly anisotropic electronic orbital degree of freedom. Here, using density functional theory and density matrix renormalization group methods, we investigate t… Show more
