We have recently implemented a new version of the quasiparticle self-consistent GW (QSGW) method in the ecalj package released at http://github.com/tkotani/ecalj. Since the new version of the ecalj is numerically stable and accurate…
We present a plane wave implementation of the G0W0 approximation within the projector augmented wave method code GPAW. The computed band gaps of ten bulk semiconductors and insulators deviate on average by 0.2 eV (~ 5 %) from the…
Calculating the quasiparticle (QP) band structure of two-dimensional (2D) materials within the GW self-energy approximation has proven to be a rather demanding computational task. The main reason is the strong $\mathbf{q}$-dependence of the…
We study the effect of semicore states on the self-energy corrections and electronic energy gaps of silicon, germanium and GaAs. Self-energy effects are computed within the GW approach, and electronic states are expanded in a plane-wave…
Even small electrostatic potentials can dramatically influence the band structure of narrow-, broken-, and inverted-gap materials. A quantitative understanding often necessitates a self-consistent Hartree approach. The valence and…
Band structures for solid rare gases (Ne, Ar) have been calculated using the GW approximation. All electron and pseudopotential ab initio calculations were performed using Gaussian orbital basis sets and the dependence of particle-hole gaps…
Theoretical studies of semiconductors and band insulators are usually based on variants of the $GW$ method without full self-consistency, like single-shot $G^0W^0$ or quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$. Fully self-consistent $GW$ provides a…
We present an extension of the quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ approximation (QS$GW$) [Phys. Rev. B, 76 165106 (2007)] to include vertex corrections in the screened Coulomb interaction $W$. This is achieved by solving the Bethe-Salpeter…
Accurately modeling the electronic structure of materials is a persistent challenge to high-throughput screening. A promising means of balancing accuracy against computational cost are non-self-consistent calculations with hybrid…
We have implemented the so called GW approximation (GWA) based on an all-electron full-potential Projector Augmented Wave (PAW) method. For the screening of the Coulomb interaction W we tested three different plasmon-pole dielectric…
The $GW$ approximation is a widely used framework for studying correlated materials, but it struggles with certain limitations, such as its inability to explain pseudogap phenomena. To overcome these problems, we propose a systematic…
Despite decades of progress, an understanding of unconventional superconductivity still remains elusive. An important open question is about the material dependence of the superconducting properties. Using the quasiparticle self-consistent…
We performed first-principles density functional theory (DFT) and GW calculations to investigate electronic structures of bulk and few-layer PdSe2. We obtained the quasiparticle band structure of bulk PdSe2, and the obtained energy gap…
The band gaps of a few selected semiconductors/insulators are obtained from the self-consistent solution of the Hedin's equations. Two different schemes to include the vertex corrections are studied: (i) the vertex function of the…
We investigate the quasiparticle band structure of anatase TiO2, a wide gap semiconductor widely employed in photovoltaics and photocatalysis. We obtain GW quasiparticle energies starting from density-functional theory (DFT) calculations…
We show that the results of photoemission and inverse photoemission experiments on bulk copper can be quantitatively described within band-structure theory, with no evidence of effects beyond the single-quasiparticle approximation. The well…
The GW approximation is a well-known method to improve electronic structure predictions calculated within density functional theory. In this work, we have implemented a computationally efficient GW approach that calculates central…
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 calculation of quasi-particle spectra based on the GW approximation is extended to systems of hundreds of atoms, thus expanding the size range of current approaches by more than one order of magnitude. This is achieved through an…
We report unphysical irregularities and discontinuities in some key experimentally-measurable quantities computed within the GW approximation of many-body perturbation theory applied to molecular systems. In particular, we show that the…
