Plane-wave electronic-structure predictions based upon orbital-dependent density-functional theory (OD-DFT) approximations, such as hybrid density-functional methods and self-interaction density-functional corrections, are severely affected…

Perhaps the simplest first-principles approach to electronic structure is to fit the charge distribution of each orbital pair and use those fits wherever they appear in the entire electron-electron (EE) interaction energy. The charge…

We report a comprehensive electronic structure investigation of the paramagnetic (PM), the large moment antiferromagnetic (LMAF), and the hidden order (HO) phases of URu$_2$Si$_2$. We have performed relativistic full-potential calculations…

To elucidate the localized-itinerant dual nature and orbital dependent correlations of Pu-5f valence electrons in plutonium borides (PuBx, x=1, 2, 6, 12), the electronic structures are throughout investigated by using the combination of…

A new, very fast, implementation of the exact (Fock) exchange operator for electronic structure calculations within the plane-wave pseudopotential method is described in detail for both molecular and periodic systems, and carefully…

In the framework of four-band envelope-function formalism, developed earlier for spherical semiconductor nanocrystals, we study the electronic structure and optical properties of quantum-confined lead-salt (PbSe and PbS) nanowires (NWs)…

We assess the accuracy of common hybrid exchange-correlation (XC) functionals (PBE0, PBE0-1/3, HSE06, HSE03, and B3LYP) within Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) for the harmonically perturbed electron gas at parameters relevant…

A new order-N method for calculating the electronic structure of general (non-tight-binding) potentials is presented. The method uses a combination of the ``purification''-based approaches used by Li, Nunes and Vanderbilt, and Daw, and a…

Transport in molecular electronic devices is different from that in semiconductor mesoscopic devices in two important aspects: (1) the effect of the electronic structure and (2) the effect of the interface to the external contact. A…

Electronic correlations and spin-orbit interactions in plutonium create variations in the bonding behavior of each of its allotropes. In $\delta$-Pu, the 5f electrons lie at the tipping point between itinerant and localized behavior which…

Numerous angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) studies of a wide class of low-density metallic systems, ranging from doped transition metal oxides to quasi two-dimensional interfaces between insulators, exhibit phonon sidebands…

Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is one of the most direct methods of studying the electronic structure of solids. By measuring the kinetic energy and angular distribution of the electrons photoemitted from a sample…

We report high resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) studies of the electronic structure of BaFe$_2$As$_2$, which is one of the parent compounds of the Fe-pnictide superconductors. ARPES measurements have been…

The widespread use of (generalized) Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) lies in the fact that hierarchical sets of approximations of the exchange-correlation (XC) energy functional can be designed, offering versatile choices to…

Quantum mechanical methods based on the density functional theory (DFT) offer a realistic possibility of first-principles design of organic donor-acceptor systems and engineered band-gap materials. This promise is contingent upon the…

Recent advances in X-ray free-electron laser diagnostics have enabled direct probing of the electronic structure under extreme pressures and temperatures, such as those encountered in stellar interiors and inertial confinement fusion…

We present a systematic study of the electronic structure of several prototypical correlated transition-metal oxides: VO2, V2O3, Ti2O3, LaTiO3, and YTiO3. In all these materials, in the low-temperature insulating phases the local and…

We present a systematic study of the atomic and electronic structure of the Si(111)-(5x2)-Au reconstruction using first-principles electronic structure calculations based on the density functional theory. We analyze the structural models…

The electronic structure of surfaces and interfaces plays a key role in the properties of quantum devices. Here, we study the electronic structure of realistic Al/InAs/Al heterojunctions using a combination of density functional theory…

We investigated the electronic response of the quasi-two-dimensional spin gap compound La4Ru2O10 using optical spectroscopy. We observed drastic changes in the optical spectra as the temperature decreased, resulting in anisotropy in the…
