Electronic and magnetic properties of double perovskites A2 FeReO6 (A = Ba, Ca)

We have studied the magnetic and electronic properties of double perovskites A2 FeReO6 with A = Ba and Ca using ab initio methods based on density functional theory. It has been shown that when changing Ba by Ca the system undergoes a metal-insulator transition coincidentally to a structural phase t...
