The GW self-energy method has long been recognized as the gold standard for quasiparticle (QP) calculations of solids in spite of the fact that the neglect of vertex corrections and the use of a DFT starting point lacks rigorous…

In developing strategies of manipulating surface electromagnetic waves, it has been recently recognized that a complete forbidden band gap can exist in a periodic surface-wave photonic crystal, which has subsequently produced various…

We use hybrid functionals and restricted self-consistent GW, state-of-the-art theoretical approaches for quasiparticle band structures, to study the electronic states of delafossite Cu(Al,In)O$_2$, the first p-type and bipolar transparent…

Among Heusler compounds, the ones being magnetic semiconductors (also known as spin-filter materials) are widely studied as they offer novel functionalities in spintronic/magnetoelectronic devices. The spin-gapless semiconductors are a…

The quasiparticle self-consistent QS$GW$ approach incorporates the corrections of the quasiparticle energies from their Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) eigenvalues by means of an energy independent and Hermitian self-energy matrix…

In some newly discovered materials the ratio of phonon to electron energies is no longer small. We have investigated the basement of the recently proposed gauge-invariant self-consistent method and found conditions of its applicability.

The quasiparticle bands of diamond, a prototype covalent insulator, are herein studied by means of wave-function electronic-structure theory, with emphasis on the nature of the correlation hole around a bare particle. Short-range…

The calculation of self-energy corrections to the electron bands of a metal requires the evaluation of the intraband contribution to the polarizability in the small-q limit. When neglected, as in standard GW codes for semiconductors and…

We report Hartree-Fock (HF) based pseudopotentials suitable for plane-wave calculations. Unlike typical effective core potentials, the present pseudopotentials are finite at the origin and exhibit rapid convergence in a plane-wave basis;…

Within the method of spectral moments it is possible to construct the spectral function of a many-electron system from the first $2P$ spectral moments ($P=1,2,3,\dots$). The case $P=1$ corresponds to standard Kohn-Sham density functional…

By adding a non-linear core correction to the well established Dual Space Gaussian type pseudopotentials for the chemical elements up to the third period, we construct improved pseudopotentials for the Perdew Burke Ernzerhof (PBE)…

We develop a Green's function approach to quasiparticle excitations of open-shell systems within the GW approximation. It is shown that accurate calculations of the characteristic multiplet structure require a precise knowledge of the self…

A first-principles computational study is presented of various phases of LiAlO$_2$.The $\beta$ and $\gamma$ tetrahedral phases are found to be very close in energy with the $\gamma$ phase having the lowest energy. The octahedral $\alpha$…

A key objective of computational solid state physics is to predict electronic properties of periodic materials. However, electronic structure simulations based on density functional theory fail to predict experimental results if…

Electronic structure of layered van der Waals ferromagnet CrI$_{3}$ is studied with self consistent diagrammatic approaches beyond GW approximation. Considerable improvement in the calculated band gap as compared to the non-self-consistent…

During the last decade, ab initio methods to calculate electronic structure of materials based on hybrid functionals are increasingly becoming widely popular. In this Letter, we show that, in the case of small gap transition metal oxides,…

The good performance of the GW approximation for band-structure calculations in solids was long taken as a sign that the sum of self-energy diagrams is converged and that all omitted terms are small. However, with modern computational…

Precise and accurate predictions of the two-dimensional (2D) material's fundamental gap are crucial for next-generation flexible electronic and photonic devices. We, therefore, evaluated the predictivity of the GW approach in its several…

For materials of varying band gap, we compare energy levels of atomically localized defects calculated within a semilocal and a hybrid density-functional scheme. Since the latter scheme partially relieves the band gap problem, our study…

Despite its reasonable accuracy for ground-state properties of semiconductors and insulators, second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) significantly underestimates band gaps. Here, we evaluate the band gap predictions of…
