摘要:

羟基磷灰石(hydroxyapatite,HAp)是哺乳动物骨骼和牙齿的重要组成部分,广泛应用于种植修复中。尽管HAp在医学中很重要,但涉及这种材料的几个有希望的应用(例如光催化)取决于我们对其基本性质的了解程度。在那些未知或不准确的结构中,我们有电子能带结构和所有与之相关的结构,包括带隙宽度。我们采用国家的最先进的方法,包括密度杂化泛函理论和多体微扰理论内的GW近似,看看在HAp的光电性能。这些方法也适用于计算的缺陷水平。我们发现在交换相关泛函中混合使用(半)局域交换和精确交换,对能带结构带来了极大的改善。重要的副作用包括改进介电和光学性质的描述,不仅涉及导带(激发)状态,而且还涉及价态。我们发现HAp的高色散导带底起源于沿$\cdots\textrm{OH-OH-}\cdots$无限链的反键$σ^{*}$态,表明形成了导电的一维冰相。以OH空位为测试模型,研究了计算缺陷能级时交换相关处理的选择。我们发现,半局域DFT内获得的施主和受主跃迁与混合DFT的跃迁相差近2 eV。这样一个大的差异强调了使用高质量的电子-电子相互作用的描述中的电子和光学跃迁的缺陷在HAp的计算的重要性。

英文摘要:

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is an important component of mammal bones and teeth, being widely used in prosthetic implants. Despite the importance of HAp in medicine, several promising applications involving this material e.g. in photo-catalysis), depend on how well we understand its fundamental properties. Among the ones that are either unknown or not known accurately we have the electronic band structure and all that relates to it, including the band gap width. We employ state-of-the-art methodologies, including density hybrid-functional theory and many-body perturbation theory within the GW approximation, to look at the optoelectronic properties of HAp. These methods are also applied to the calculation of defect levels. We find that the use of a mix of (semi-)local and exact exchange in the exchange-correlation functional, brings a drastic improvement to the band structure. Important side-effects include improvements in the description of dielectric and optical properties, not only involving conduction band (excited) states, but also the valence. We find that the highly dispersive conduction band bottom of HAp originates from anti-bonding $σ^{*}$ states along the $\cdots\textrm{OH-OH-}\cdots$ infinite chain, suggesting the formation of a conductive 1D-ice phase. The choice of the exchange-correlation treatment to the calculation of defect levels was also investigated by using the OH-vacancy as testing-model. We find that donor and acceptor transitions obtained within semi-local DFT differ from those of hybrid-DFT by almost 2 eV. Such a large discrepancy emphasizes the importance of using a high-quality description of the electron-electron interactions in the calculation of electronic and optical transitions of defects in HAp.
