Quantum size effect in Pb(100) films: the role of symmetry and implication for film growth
Dengke Yu, Matthias Scheffler, Mats Persson
We show from density-functional calculations that Pb(100) thin films exhibit quantum size effect with a bilayer periodicity in film energies, film relaxations, and work functions,…
Effect of post-growth annealing on the optical properties of InAs/GaAs quantum dots: A tight-binding study
R. Santoprete, P. Kratzer, M. Scheffler +2
We present an atomistic study of the strain field, the one-particle electronic spectrum and the oscillator strength of the fundamental optical transition in chemically disordered I…
First-principles kinetic Monte Carlo simulations for heterogeneous catalysis, applied to the CO oxidation at RuO2(110)
Karsten Reuter, Matthias Scheffler
We describe a first-principles statistical mechanics approach enabling us to simulate the steady-state situation of heterogeneous catalysis. In a first step density-functional theo…
First-principles approach to Non-Collinear Magnetism: towards Spin-dynamics
S. Sharma, J. K. Dewhurst, C. Ambrosch-Draxl +6
A description of non-collinear magnetism in the framework of spin-density functional theory is presented for the exact exchange energy functional which depends explicitly on two-co…
Role of semicore states in the electronic structure of group-III nitrides: An exact exchange study
A. Qteish, A. I. Al-Sharif, M. Fuchs +3
The bandstructure of the zinc-blende phase of AlN, GaN, InN is calculated employing the exact-exchange (EXX) Kohn-Sham density-functional theory and a pseudopotential plane-wave ap…
Comparison of the full-potential and frozen-core approximation approaches to density-functional calculations of surfaces
Adam Kiejna, Georg Kresse, Jutta Rogal +3
We scrutinize the accuracy of the pseudopotential approximation in density-functional theory (DFT) calculations of surfaces by systematically comparing to results obtained within a…
First-principles study of thin magnetic transition-metal silicide films on Si(001)
Hua Wu, Peter Kratzer, Matthias Scheffler
In order to combine silicon technology with the functionality of magnetic systems, a number of ferromagnetic (FM) materials have been suggested for the fabrication of metal/semicon…
Combining GW calculations with exact-exchange density-functional theory: An analysis of valence-band photoemission for compound semiconductors
Patrick Rinke, Abdallah Qteish, Joerg Neugebauer +2
We report quasiparticle-energy calculations of the electronic bandstructure as measured by valence-band photoemission for selected II-VI compounds and group-III-nitrides. By applyi…
Jahn-Teller stabilization of a "polar" metal oxide surface: Fe3O4(001)
R. Pentcheva, F. Wendler, H. L. Meyerheim +3
Using ab initio thermodynamics we compile a phase diagram for the surface of Fe3O4(001) as a function of temperature and oxygen pressures. A hitherto ignored polar termination with…
Density-functional theory study of the initial oxygen incorporation in Pd(111)
Mira Todorova, Karsten Reuter, Matthias Scheffler
Pd(111) has recently been shown to exhibit a propensity to form a sub-nanometer thin surface oxide film already well before a full monolayer coverage of adsorbed O atoms is reached…
