Correlated Materials Design: Prospects and Challenges

ORAL

Abstract

The design of correlated materials challenges researchers to combine the
maturing, high throughput framework of DFT-based materials design with the
rapidly-developing first-principles theory for correlated electron systems.
We review the physics of correlations, and propose strategies to capture
their effects at each stage of the materials design workflow. We illustrate
the workflow via examples in several materials classes, encompassing
superconductors, charge ordering and Mott insulators, highlighting the
interplay between theory and experiment and with a view towards finding new
materials.
