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 LDA-1/2 method for self-energy correction is a powerful tool for calculating accurate band structures of semiconductors, while keeping the computational load as low as standard LDA. Nevertheless, controversies remain regarding the…

The LDA-1/2 method is employed in density functional theory calculations for the electronic structure of III-V dilute bismide systems. For the representative example of Ga(SbBi) with Bi concentrations below $10 \%$, it is shown that this…

The LDA-1/2 method expands Slater's half occupation technique to infinite solid state materials by introducing a self-energy potential centered at the anions to cancel the energy associated with electron-hole self-interaction. To avoid an…

The local-density approximation (LDA), together with the half-occupation (transition state) is notoriously successful in the calculation of atomic ionization potentials. When it comes to extended systems, such as a semiconductor infinite…

The Kohn-Sham gaps of density functional theory (DFT) obtained in terms of local density approximation (LDA) or generalized gradient approximation (GGA) cannot be directly linked to the fundamental gaps of semiconductors, but in engineering…

The DFT-1/2 method in density functional theory [L. G. Ferreira et al., Phys. Rev. B 78, 125116 (2008)] aims to provide accurate band gaps at the computational cost of semilocal calculations. The method has shown promise in a large number…

DFT-1/2 is an efficient band gap rectification method for density functional theory (DFT) under local density approximation (LDA) or generalized gradient approximation. It was suggested that non-self-consistent DFT-1/2 should be used for…

Atomic effective pseudopotentials enable atomistic calculations at the level of accuracy of density functional theory for semiconductor nanostructures with up to fifty thousand atoms. Since they are directly derived from ab-initio…

An oversight of several previous local density approximation (LDA) results appears to have led to an incomplete picture of the actual capability of density functional theory (DFT), with emphasis on LDA, to describe and to predict the band…

The need for accurate calculations on atoms and diatomic molecules is motivated by the opportunities and challenges of such studies. The most commonly-used approach for all-electron electronic structure calculations in general - the linear…

The $GW$ approach of many-body perturbation theory (MBPT) has become a common tool for calculating the electronic structure of materials. However, with increasing number of published results, discrepancies between the values obtained by…

This paper is a continuation of our detailed study [Phys. Rev. B 86, 195106 (2012)] of the performance of the recently proposed modified Becke-Jonhson potential (mBJLDA) within the known Wien2k code. From the 41 semiconductors that we have…

It is necessary to employ quasi-particle calculations to correct band gap problems in LDA. As an expedient way for the reliable but massive GWA, Quasi-Particle-LDA (QPLDA) is proposed by several authors, where the total computational cost…

In this letter we present band gaps of II-VI semiconductors, calculated by the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method with the modified Becke-Johnson (mBJ) potential. The accuracy of the calculated results is…

To address ultimate precision in density-functional-theory calculations we employ the full-potential linearized augmented planewave + local-orbital (LAPW+lo) method and justify its usage as a benchmark method. LAPW+lo and two completely…

Many-body perturbation theory in the GW approach is applied to lanthanide oxides, using the local-density approximation plus a Hubbard U correction (LDA+U) as the starting point. Good agreement between the G0W0 density of states and…

We use an all-electron implementation of the GW approximation to analyze several possible sources of error in the theory and its implementation. Among these are convergence in the polarization and Green's functions, the dependence of QP…

Currently, self-induced InAlN core-shell nanorods enjoy an advanced stage of accumulation of experimental data from their growth and characterization as well as a comprehensive understanding of their formation mechanism by the ab initio…

There has been a high demand in rectifying the band gap under-estimation problem in density functional theory (DFT), while keeping the computational load at the same level as local density approximation. DFT-1/2 and shell DFT-1/2 are useful…
