For many years the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent-potential approximation (KKR-CPA) has been widely used to describe the electronic structure of disordered systems based upon a first-principles description of the crystal potential.…
Recently the nonlocal coherent-potential approximation (NLCPA) has been introduced by Jarrell and Krishnamurthy for describing the electronic structure of substitutionally disordered systems. The NLCPA provides systematic corrections to the…
We extend the single-site coherent potential approximation (CPA) to include the effects of non-local disorder correlations (alloy short-range order) on the electronic structure of random alloy systems. This is achieved by mapping the…
We present an ab-initio formalism for the calculation of transport properties in compositionally disordered systems within the framework of the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker non-local coherent potential approximation. Our formalism is based upon…
A general method is proposed for calculating a fully k-dependent, continuous, and causal spectral function A(k,E) within the recently introduced nonlocal version of the coherent-potential approximation (NLCPA). The method involves the…
While the coherent potential approximation (CPA) is the prevalent method for the study of disordered electronic systems, it fails to capture non-local correlations and Anderson localization. To incorporate such effects, we extend the dual…
We present first principles charge- and spin-selfconsistent electronic structure computations on the Heusler-type disordered alloys Fe$_{3-x}$V$_{x}$X for three different metalloids X=(Si, Ga and Al). In these calculations we use the…
The coherent potential approximation, CPA, is a useful tool to treat systems with disorder. Cluster theories have been proposed to go beyond the translation invariant single-site CPA approximation and include some short range correlations.…
Practical applications of fragment embedding and closely related local correlation methods critically depend on a judicious choice of a low-level theory to define the local embedding subspace and to capture long-range electrostatic and…
We apply variational principles from statistical physics and the Landau theory of phase transitions to multicomponent alloys using the multiple-scattering theory of Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) and the coherent potential approximation…
The Dynamical Cluster Approximation (DCA) is modified to include disorder. The DCA incorporates non-local corrections to local approximations such as the Coherent Potential Approximation (CPA) by mapping the lattice problem with disorder,…
The coherent potential approximation (CPA) is extended to describe satisfactorily the motion of particles in a random potential which is spatially correlated and smoothly varying. In contrast to existing cluster-CPA methods, the present…
The theoretical description of modern nanoelectronic devices requires a quantum mechanical treatment and often involves disorder, e.g. form alloys. Therefore, the ab initio theory of transport using non-equilibrium Green's functions is…
We introduce a new real space super cell approximation method for treating the electronic states of disordered systems. This method is general and allows both randomness in the on-site energies and in the hopping integrals. In the special…
The random phase approximation (RPA) for the correlation energy functional of density functional theory has recently attracted renewed interest. Formulated in terms of the Kohn-Sham (KS) orbitals and eigenvalues, it promises to resolve some…
Coherent potential approximation (CPA) has widely been used for studying residual resistivity of bulk alloys and electrical conductivity in inhomogeneous systems with structural disorder. Here we revisit the single-site CPA within the…
We propose a self-consistent approximate solution of the disordered Kondo-lattice model (KLM) to get the interconnected electronic and magnetic properties of 'local-moment' systems like diluted ferromagnetic semiconductors. Aiming at…
The method of electronic structure calculations for strongly correlated disordered materials is developed employing the basic idea of coherent potential approximation (CPA). Evolution of electronic structure and spin magnetic moment value…
We develop a microscopic theory of disorder-induced localization for a quantum particle moving in a fully ionized classical one-component plasma, within the static-fluctuation approximation. The random potential acting on the particle…
We develop a Non-Crossing Approximation (NCA) for the effective cluster problem of the recently developed Dynamical Cluster Approximation (DCA). The DCA technique includes short-ranged correlations by mapping the lattice problem onto a…
