Charge state of the O molecule during silicon oxidation through hybrid functional calculations

Audrius Alkauskas, Peter Broqvist, Alfredo Pasquarello

We study the charge state of the diffusing O molecule during silicon oxidation through hybrid functional calculations. We calculate charge transition levels of O in bulk Si…

Band Offsets at Semiconductor-Oxide Interfaces from Hybrid Density Functional Calculations

Audrius Alkauskas, Peter Broqvist, Fabien Devynck +1

Band offsets at semiconductor-oxide interfaces are determined through a scheme based on hybrid density functionals, which incorporate a fraction of Hartree-Fock exchange. For e…

Defect Energy Levels in Density Functional Calculations: Alignment and Band Gap Problem

Audrius Alkauskas, Peter Broqvist, Alfredo Pasquarello

For materials of varying band gap, we compare energy levels of atomically localized defects calculated within a semilocal and a hybrid density-functional scheme. Since the latter s…

Effect of Metal Element in Catalytic Growth of Carbon Nanotubes

Oleg V. Yazyev, Alfredo Pasquarello

Using first principles calculations, we model the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on nanoparticles of late transition (Ni, Pd, Pt) and coinage (Cu,…

A simple and efficient model for mesoscale solidification simulation of globular grain structures

Stéphane Vernède, Michel Rappaz

A simple model for the solidification of globular grains in metallic alloys is presented. Based on the Voronoi diagram of the nuclei centers, it accounts for the curvature of the g…
