Wannier function expansions are well suited for the description of photonic- crystal-based defect structures, but constructing maximally localized Wannier functions by optimizing the phase degree of freedom of the Bloch modes is crucial for…

We present a method for obtaining well-localized Wannier-like functions (WFs) for energy bands that are attached to or mixed with other bands. The present scheme removes the limitation of the usual maximally-localized WFs method (N. Marzari…

Thanks to the nearsightedness principle, the low-energy electronic structure of solids can be represented by localized states such as the Wannier functions. Wannier functions are actively being applied to a wide range of phenomena in…

The Projected Augmented Waves (PAW) method is based on a linear transformation between the pseudo wavefunctions and the all electron wavefunctions. To obtain high accuracy with this method, it is important that the local part of the linear…

We consider the applicability of phase space Wannier functions" to electronic structure calculations. These generalized Wannier functions are analogous to localized plane waves and constitute a complete, orthonormal set which is…

We introduce a maximally-localized Wannier function representation of Bloch excitons, two-particle correlated electron-hole excitations, in crystalline solids, where the excitons are maximally-localized with respect to an average…

We present a spin-dependent extension of the non-orthogonal generalized Wannier function (NGWF) formalism within the framework of linear-scaling density functional theory (LS-DFT) as implemented in the ONETEP code. In traditional LS-DFT…

We introduce a new type of Wannier functions (WFs) obtained by minimizing the conventional spread functional with a penalty term proportional to the variance of the spread distribution. This modified Wannierisation scheme is less prone to…

We present an implementation of localized atomic orbital basis sets in the projector augmented wave (PAW) formalism within the density functional theory (DFT). The implementation in the real-space GPAW code provides a complementary basis…

Wannier functions that are maximally localized help in understanding many properties of crystalline materials. In the absence of topological obstructions, they are at least exponentially localized. In some cases such as flat-band…

Density functional theory plus $U$ (DFT+$U$) is one of the most efficient first-principles methods to simulate the cold pressure properties of strongly-correlated materials. However, the applicability of DFT+$U$ at ultra-high pressure is…

A grid-based real-space implementation of the Projector Augmented Wave (PAW) method of P. E. Blochl [Phys. Rev. B 50, 17953 (1994)] for Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations is presented. The use of uniform 3D real-space grids for…

The most general way to describe localized atomic-like electronic states in strongly correlated compounds is to utilize Wannier functions. In the present paper we continue the development of widely-spread DFT+U method onto Wannier function…
