We present a new, all-electron implementation of the GW approximation and apply it to wurtzite ZnO. Eigenfunctions computed in the local-density approximation (LDA) by the full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave (LAPW) or the…
Using the hybrid exchange-correlation functional within the density-functional theory, we have systematically investigated the structural and electronic properties of MO (M = Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Cd) in binary rocksalt (B1), zincblende…
Group IB metal halides (CuX and AgX, X=Cl, Br and I) are widely used in optoelectronic devices and photochemical catalysis due to their appropriate optical and electronic properties. First-principles calculations have confronted…
Ab initio electronic structure studies of prototypical polar interfaces of wurtzite III-V nitrides show that large uniform electric fields exist in epitaxial nitride overlayers, due to the discontinuity across the interface of the…
The bowing of the energy of the three lowest band-to-band transitions in $\beta$-(Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1-x}$)$_2$O$_3$ alloys was resolved using a combined density functional theory (DFT) and generalized spectroscopic ellipsometry (GSE) approach.…
We employ an eigen polarization model including the description of direction dependent excitonic effects for rendering critical point structures within the dielectric function tensor of monoclinic \beta-Ga2O3 yielding a comprehensive…
GaSb:N displays promise towards realization of optoelectronic devices accessing the mid-infrared wavelength regime. Theoretical and experimental results on its electronic and optical properties are however few. To address this, we present a…
Moving beyond traditional 2D materials is now desirable to have switching capabilities (e.g., transistors). Here we propose using graphyne because, as we will show in this letter, obtaining regions of the electronic bandstructure which act…
Obtaining accurate band structures of correlated solids has been one of the most important and challenging problems in first-principles electronic structure calculation. There have been promising recent active developments of wave function…
We report on our investigation of the electrical properties of metal/Al2O3/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors. We determined the conduction band offset and interface charge density of the alumina/GaN interface by analyzing…
The band alignment in ZnO/GaN and related heterostructures are crucial for the uses in solar harvesting technology. Here, we report our density functional calculations of the band alignment and optical properties of ZnO/GaN and…
Employing the $G_0W_0$ approximation of Hedin's $GW$ approach one can obtain quasi-particle energies of extended systems and molecules with good accuracy. However, for many materials, semi-local exchange-correlation functionals are…
The $\mathbf{k \cdot p}$ method is a successful approach to obtain band structure, optical and transport properties of semiconductors, and it depends on external parameters that are obtained either from experiments, tight binding or ab…
Lattice vibrations of the wurtzite-type AlN have been studied by Raman spectroscopy under high pressure up to the structural phase transition at 20 GPa. We have shown that the widely debated bond-bending E_2^1 mode of w-AlN has an abnormal…
The density functional theory (DFT) approximations that are the most accurate for the calculation of band gap of bulk materials are hybrid functionals like HSE06, the MBJ potential, and the GLLB-SC potential. More recently, generalized…
The $GW$ method delivers substantially improved accuracy in electronic band structure calculations over conventional Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) by explicitly incorporating the electron self-energy effect beyond mean-field…
We report on optical properties of various polymorphs of hafnia predicted within the framework of density functional theory. The full potential linearised augmented plane wave method was employed together with the Tran-Blaha modified…
