摘要:

采用从头算波函数方法研究了电子关联对氧化物体系能带结构的影响。我们选择MgO作为原型闭壳层离子氧化物。我们的分析是基于一个本地的哈密顿方法和有限的片段从无限的固体。局部化的Wannier函数和嵌入势是从先前的周期性Hartree-Fock(HF)计算中获得的。我们研究了各种电子相关效应在减小HF带隙和修改带宽中的作用。在现场和最近邻电荷弛豫以及远程极化效应进行了计算。虽然相关效应对于计算准确的带隙是必不可少的,但我们发现它们对HF带宽产生的变化较小,至少对于这种材料来说是这样。令人惊讶的是,获得了O 2 p价带的加宽效应。从头算数据与热反射和x射线光电子能谱实验得到的能隙和能带宽度符合得很好。结果表明,基于波函数的方法在这里应用允许控制良好的近似和透明的识别的微观过程,确定电子能带结构。

英文摘要:

Ab initio wavefunction based methods are applied to the study of electron correlation effects on the band structure of oxide systems. We choose MgO as a prototype closed-shell ionic oxide. Our analysis is based on a local Hamiltonian approach and performed on finite fragments cut from the infinite solid. Localized Wannier functions and embedding potentials are obtained from prior periodic Hartree-Fock (HF) calculations. We investigate the role of various electron correlation effects in reducing the HF band gap and modifying the band widths. On-site and nearest-neighbor charge relaxation as well as long-range polarization effects are calculated. Whereas correlation effects are essential for computing accurate band gaps, we found that they produce smaller changes on the HF band widths, at least for this material. Surprisingly, a broadening effect is obtained for the O 2p valence bands. The ab initio data are in good agreement with the energy gap and band width derived from thermoreflectance and x-ray photoemission experiments. The results show that the wavefunction based approach applied here allows for well controlled approximations and a transparent identification of the microscopic processes which determine the electronic band structure.
