Finite-size corrections of defect energy levels involving ionic polarization

Alfredo Pasquarello, Julia Anna Wiktor, Stefano Falletta

We develop a scheme for finite-size corrections of vertical transition energies and single-particle energy levels involving defect states with built-in ionic polarization in supercell calculations. The method accounts on an equal footing for the screening ...

Defect Formation Energies of Interstitial C, Si, and Ge Impurities in beta-Ga2O3

Alfredo Pasquarello, Assil Bouzid

Formation energies of C, Si, and Ge defects in beta-Ga2O3 are studied through hybrid functional calculations. The interstitial defects of these elements generally occur at higher energies than their substitutional counterparts, but are more stable at low F ...

Extrinsic Defects in Amorphous Oxides: Hydrogen, Carbon, and Nitrogen Impurities in Alumina

Alfredo Pasquarello, Francesco Ambrosio, Zhendong Guo

We present a procedure for addressing extrinsic defects in amorphous oxides, in which the most stable defect configurations are identified through ab initio molecular dynamics in various charge states and studied through hybrid functional calculations. The ...

Template-assisted grown III-V semiconductor nanowires: A transmission electron microscopy study

Nicolas Bologna

III-V semiconductor nanowires are, due to their unique properties, one of the most promising nanostructures developed in the last decades. However, the realization of commercial devices made of III-V nanowires, such as transistors and solar cells, has not ...

Self-consistent site-dependent DFT plus U study of stoichiometric and defective SrMnO3

Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov, Matteo Cococcioni, Ulrich Aschauer

We propose a self-consistent site-dependent Hubbard U approach for density functional theory (DFT)+U calculations of defects in complex transition metal oxides, using Hubbard parameters computed via linear response theory. The formation of a defect locally ...

Alignment of energy levels in amorphous oxides and at semiconductor-water interfaces

Zhendong Guo

We conduct a detailed investigation of defects in two representative amorphous oxides: amorphous Al2O3 (am-Al2O3) and TiO2 (am-TiO2), by combining ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and hybrid functional calculations. Our results indicate that o ...

Vertical Ionization Energies and Electron Affinities of Native and Damaged DNA Bases, Nucleotides, and Pairs from Density Functional Theory Calculations: Model Assessment and Implications for DNA Damage Recognition and Repair

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Polydefkis Diamantis

To assess the effect of an 8-oxoguanine (8OG) defect base on the vertical ionization energies (VIEs) and electron affinities (VEAs) of DNA, density functional theory calculations were carried out for native and defect DNA bases and nucleotides, as well as ...

Band Gap of Atomically Precise Graphene Nanoribbons as a Function of Ribbon Length and Termination

Christoph Leopold Talirz

We study the band gap of finite NA=7 armchair graphene nanoribbons (7-AGNRs) on Au(111) through scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy combined with density functional theory calculations. The band gap of 7-AGNRs with lengths of 8 nm and more is conver ...

Koopmans-Compliant Functionals and Potentials and Their Application to the GW100 Test Set

Nicola Marzari, Nicola Colonna, Ngoc Linh Nguyen

Koopmans-compliant (KC) functionals have been shown to provide accurate spectral properties through a generalized condition of piecewise linearity of the total energy as a function of the fractional addition/removal of an electron to/from any orbital. We a ...

CHD3 Dissociation on the Kinked Pt(210) Surface: A Comparison of Experiment and Theory

Rainer Beck, Ana Gutiérrez González, Helen Jane Chadwick

To be able to simulate activated heterogeneously catalyzed reactions on the edge and corner sites of nanoparticles, a method for calculating accurate activation barriers for the reactions is required. We have recently demonstrated that a semiempirical spec ...

Advantageous nearsightedness of many-body perturbation theory contrasted with Kohn-Sham density functional theory

Christoph Leopold Talirz

For properties of interacting electron systems, Kohn-Sham (KS) theory is often favored over many-body perturbation theory (MBPT), owing to its low computational cost. However, the exact KS potential can be challenging to approximate, for example in the pre ...
