Band alignment between two materials is of fundamental importance for multitude of applications. However, density functional theory (DFT) either underestimates the bandgap - as is the case with local density approximation (LDA) or…

Microstructure uniformity of the Al-Nd target materials with Al11Nd3 significantly affects the performance of the fabricated film, which is widely used as wiring material in largesize thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD)…

The minimum of the Gutzwiller energy functional depends on the number of parameters considered in the variational state. For a three-orbital Hubbard model we find that the frequently used diagonal Ansatz is very accurate in high-symmetry…

Band structures for solid rare gases (Ne, Ar) have been calculated using the GW approximation. All electron and pseudopotential ab initio calculations were performed using Gaussian orbital basis sets and the dependence of particle-hole gaps…

In standard Kohn-Sham (KS) density-functional theory (DFT) the valence band satellites in Ni and Pd are missing, the band widths in Ni and Na are too large, and the formation of lower and upper Hubbard bands in SrVO$_3$ is not described.…

The increasing interest of nanowhiskers for technological applications has led to the observation of the zinc-blend/wurtzite polytypism. Polytypic nanowhiskers could also play, by their characteristics, an important role on the design of…

The electronic and magnetic properties of varying width, oxygen-functionalized armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) are investigated using first-principles density functional theory (DFT). Our study shows that O-passivation results in a…

Wurtzite GaN is a promising material for applications in photoconductive THz radiation sources. For this purpose, the photogenerated charge carriers lifetime of the order of tenths of picoseconds is required. A controllable lifetime…

We review recent results on the properties of materials with correlated electrons obtained within the LDA+DMFT approach, a combination of a conventional band structure approach based on the local density approximation (LDA) and the…

The GW approximation is a well-known method to improve electronic structure predictions calculated within density functional theory. In this work, we have implemented a computationally efficient GW approach that calculates central…

The transport of holes through p-doped wurtzite bulk GaN and AlGaN is poor so transport of holes through GaN/AlGaN superlattices has been proposed and investigated theoretically and experimentally with experimental results showing poor…

Experimental synthesis of theoretically predicted materials with controlled elemental coordination environments can lead to realization of useful properties, such as facile ion transport or ferroelectric switching. Among such materials are…

A versatile method for combining density functional theory (DFT) in the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) is presented. Starting from a general basis-independent formulation, we use Wannier functions…

Nonsymmorphic symmetries can enforce band connectivity that obstructs a single-band Wannier description. We show that a fractional translation $\mathcal{L}$ connecting distinct high-symmetry Wyckoff positions generically renders the Wannier…

In electronic structure calculations the optimized effective potential (OEP) is a method that treats exchange interactions exactly using a local potential within density-functional theory (DFT). We present a method using density functional…

Equilibrium crystal structures, electron band dispersions and band gap values of layered GaSe and InSe semiconductors, each being represented by four polytypes, are studied via first-principles calculations within the density functional…

We present a detailed first-principles DFT study of the equation of state (EOS), energy-optimized geometries, phase stabilities and electronic properties of bulk crystalline Cu3N, CuN and CuN2 in a set of twenty different structural phases.…

The ground state and excited state properties of the perovskite LaMnO$_3$ are calculated based on the generalized-gradient-corrected relativistic full-potential method. The electronic structure, magnetism and energetics of various spin…

Thermal decomposition of wurtzite (0001)-oriented GaN was analyzed: in vacuum, under active N exposure, and during growth by rf-plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The GaN decomposition rate was determined by measurements of the Ga…

Relaxations at nonpolar surfaces of III-V compounds result from a competition between dehybridization and charge transfer. First principles calculations for the (110) and (10$\bar{1}$0) faces of zincblende and wurtzite AlN, GaN and InN…
