The bulk properties (lattice constants, bulk moduli, and cohesive energies) of alkali, alkaline-earth, and transition metals are studied within the framework of the recently developed meta-GGA (meta-Generalized Gradient Approximation)…

Density functional theory is routinely applied to predict crystal structures. The most common exchange-correlation functionals used to this end are the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) approximation and its variant PBEsol. We investigate the…

We test the accuracy of the revised Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof exchange-correlation density functional (PBEsol) for metallic bulk and surface systems. It is shown that, on average, PBEsol yields equilibrium volumes and bulk moduli in close…

SrTiO$_3$ is a model perovskite compound with unique properties and technological relevance. At 105 K it undergoes a transition from a cubic to a tetragonal phase with characteristic antiferrodistortive rotations of the TiO$_6$ octahedra.…

We investigate the impact of various levels of approximation in density functional theory calculations for the structural and binding properties of the prototypical halide perovskite MAPbI$_3$. Specifically, we test how the inclusion of…

Theoretically, NaAuS is predicted as topological insulator, while no detail electronic structure study has been done for this compound. Here, we report the structural and electronic properties of NaAuS by using LDA, PBEsol, PBE and revPBE…

Very recently, first-principle technique of full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method, by using for exchange-correlation potential the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), was employed for the study of the lead chalcogenide…

We assess the performance of recent density functionals for the exchange-correlation energy of a nonmolecular solid, by applying accurate calculations with the GAUSSIAN, BAND, and VASP codes to a test set of 24 solid metals and non-metals.…

We have performed density functional calculations using a range of local and semi-local as well as hybrid density functional approximations of the structure and elastic constants of 18 semiconductors and insulators. We find that most of the…

Electronic structure descriptors are computationally efficient quantities used to construct qualitative correlations for a variety of properties. In particular, the oxygen p-band center has been used to guide material discovery and…

Density-functional theory is widely used to predict the physical properties of materials. However, it usually fails for strongly correlated materials. A popular solution is to use the Hubbard corrections to treat strongly correlated…

A comparative study between PbTiO$_3$, PbZrO$_3$, and the solid solution PbZr$_{0.5}$Ti$_{0.5}$O$_3$ is performed on the soft mode lattice dynamics within the first Brillouin Zone. We consider the six unique B-site orderings for…

In a recent work by Jiang et al. [J. Phys. Chem. Solids 67 (2006) 1531-1536], the interrelationship between lattice constant, ionic radii and tolerance factor of cubic perovskites has been established and an empirical equation was obtained.…

We present the WCCR10 data set of ten ligand dissociation energies of large cationic transition metal complexes for the assessment of approximate exchange--correlation functionals. We analyze nine popular functionals, namely BP86, BP86-D3,…

The static and dynamic properties of V^{4+} spins (S = 1/2) in the frustrated square lattice compound Pb2(VO)(PO4)2 were investigated by means of magnetic susceptibility chi and 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) shift (K) and 31P nuclear…

A shell model for ferroelectric perovskites fitted to results of first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations is strongly affected by approximations made in the exchange-correlation functional within DFT, and in general not…

Single crystals of the perovskite-type $3d^{1}$ metallic alloy system Ca$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$VO$_3$ were synthesized in order to investigate metallic properties near the Mott transition. The substitution of a Ca$^{2+}$ ion for a Sr$^{2+}$ ion…

This paper presents a multiscale approach to evaluate perovskite solar cell performance which determines material properties at the atomistic scale with first-principles calculations, and applies them in macro-scale device models. This work…

In the first-principles bulk-layer model the superlattice structure and polarization are determined by first-principles computation of the bulk responses of the constituents to the electrical and mechanical boundary conditions in an…
