英文摘要：

We provide a straightforward and numerically efficient procedure to perform local density approximation + Hubbard I (LDA+HIA) calculations, including self-consistency over the charge density, within the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. This implementation is all-electron, includes spin-orbit interaction, and makes no shape approximations for the charge density. The method is applied to calculate selected heavy actinides in the paramagnetic phase. The electronic structure and spectral properties of Am and Cm metals obtained are in agreement with previous dynamical mean-field theory (LDA+DMFT) calculations and with available experimental data. We point out that the charge density self-consistent LDA+HIA calculations predict the $f$ charge on Bk to exceed the atomic integer $f^8$ value by 0.22.

The 5f localization/delocalization in square and hexagonal americium monolayers: A FP-LAPW electronic structure study

The electronic and geometrical properties of bulk americium and square and hexagonal americium monolayers have been studied with the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. The effects of several common approximations are examined: (1) non-spin polarization (NSP) vs. spin polarization (SP); (2) scalar-relativity (no spin-orbit coupling (NSO)) vs. full-relativity (i.e., with spin-orbit (SO) coupling included); (3) local-density approximation (LDA) vs. generalized-gradient approximation (GGA). Our results indicate that both spin polarization and spin orbit coupling play …

Investigation of A1g phonons in YBa2Cu3O7 by means of LAPW atomic-force calculations

We report first-principles frozen-phonon calculations for the determination of the force-free geometry and the dynamical matrix of the five Raman-active A1g modes in YBa2Cu3O7. To establish the shape of the phonon potentials atomic forces are calculated within the LAPW method. Two different schemes - the local density approximation (LDA) and a generalized gradient approximation (GGA) - are employed for the treatment of electronic exchange and correlation effects. We find that in the case of LDA the resulting phonon frequencies show a deviation from experimental values of approximately -10%. In…

All-electron GW calculation based on the LAPW method: application to wurtzite ZnO

We present a new, all-electron implementation of the GW approximation and apply it to wurtzite ZnO. Eigenfunctions computed in the local-density approximation (LDA) by the full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave (LAPW) or the linearized muffin-tin-orbital (LMTO) method supply the input for generating the Green function G and the screened Coulomb interaction W. A mixed basis is used for the expansion of W, consisting of plane waves in the interstitial region and augmented-wavefunction products in the augmentation-sphere regions. The frequency-dependence of the dielectric function is comp…

5f Delocalization of Bulk FCC Americium and the (111) Surface: A FP-LAPW Electronic Structure Study

The electronic properties of bulk fcc americium and the (111) surface have been investigated with the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method as implemented in the WIEN2K suite of programs. The study is carried out for the anti-ferromagnetic ground state of Am at different levels of theory: (1) scalar-relativity vs. full-relativity; (2) local-density approximation (LDA) vs. generalized-gradient approximation (GGA). Our results indicate that spin orbit coupling plays an important role in determining the electronic properties of both bulk fcc americium and the (111) surfa…

A first-principles study of the electronic structure of Iron-Selenium; Implications for electron-phonon superconductivity

We have performed density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the linearized augmented plane wave method (LAPW) with the local density approximation (LDA) functional to study the electronic structure of the iron-based superconductor Iron-Selenium (FeSe). In our study, we have performed a comprehensive set of calculations involving structural, atomic, and spin configurations. All calculations were executed using the tetragonal lead-oxide or P4/nmm structure, with various volumes, c/a ratios and internal parameters. Furthermore, we investigated the spin polarization using the LDA function…

Spectral Properties of delta-Plutonium: Sensitivity to 5f Occupancy

By combining the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean field theory (DMFT), we report a systematic analysis of the spectral properties of $δ$-plutonium with varying $5f$ occupancy. The LDA Hamiltonian is extracted from a tight-binding (TB) fit to full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave (FP-LAPW) calculations. The DMFT equations are solved by the exact quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method and the Hubbard-I approximation. We have shown for the first time the strong sensitivity of the spectral properties to the $5f$ occupancy, which suggests using this occupancy as a fitting pa…

First principles theoretical studies of half-metallic ferromagnetism in CrTe

Using full-potential linear augmented plane wave method (FP-LAPW) and the density functional theory, we have carried out a systematic investigation of the electronic, magnetic, and cohesive properties of the chalcogenide CrTe in three competing structures: rock-salt (RS), zinc blende (ZB) and the NiAs-type (NA) hexagonal. Although the ground state is of NA structure, RS and ZB are interesting in that these fcc-based structures, which can possibly be grown on many semiconductor substrates, exhibit half-metallic phases above some critical values of the lattice parameter. We find that the NA stru…

A comparative study for structural and electronic properties of single-crystal ScN

A comparative study by FP-LAPW calculations based on DFT within LDA, PBE-GGA, EV$_{ex}$-PW$_{co}$-GGA, and EV$_{ex}$-GGA-LDA$_{co}$ schemes is introduced for the structural and electronic properties of ScN in RS, ZB, WZ, and CsCl phases. According to all approximations used in this work, the RS phase is the stable ground state structure and makes a transition to CsCl phase at high transition pressure. While PBE-GGA and EV$_{ex}$-PW$_{co}$-GGA's have provided better structural features such as equilibrium lattice constant and bulk modulus, only EV$_{ex}$-PW$_{co}$-GGA and EV$_{ex}$-GGA-LDA$_{co…

Electronic and Optical Properties of γ- and θ- Alumina by First Principle Calculations

The electronic and optical parameters of γ-Al2O3 and θ-Al2O3 have been studied by using the first principle within the framework of density function theory (DFT). The computational approach is based on full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method (FP-LAPW) within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), local density approximation (LDA), and modified Becke-Johnson potential (mBJ). The results show that these compounds have a direct gap (Γ-Γ) of about 5.375 eV and 4.716 eV for γ-Al2O3 and θ-Al2O3, respectively. Several optical parameters of these materials are also investigated. T…

All-electron study of InAs and GaAs wurtzite: structural and electronic properties

The structural and electronic properties of the wurtzite phase of the InAs and GaAs compounds are, for the first time, studied within the framework of Density Functional Theory (DFT). We used the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) method and the local density approximation (LDA) for exchange and correlation and compared the results to the corresponding pseudopotential calculations. From the structural optimization of the wurtzite polymorph of InAs we found that the c/a ratio is somewhat greater than the ideal one and that the internal parameter u/c has a value slightly small…
