Ferromagnetism and correlation strength in cubic barium ruthenate in comparison to strontium and calcium ruthenate: a dynamical mean field study

We present density functional plus dynamical mean field studies of cubic BaRuO$_3$ using interaction parameters previously found to be appropriate for the related materials CaRuO$_3$ and SrRuO$_3$. The calculated variation in transition temperature between the Ba and Sr compounds is consistent with experiment, confirming the assignment of the compounds to the Hund's metal family of materials, and also confirming the appropriateness of the values for the interaction parameters previously estimated and the appropriateness of the single-site dynamical mean field approximation for these materials. The results provide insights into the origin of magnetism and the role of the van Hove singularity in the physics of Hund's metals.
