High-fidelity kp representations of first-principles electronic band structures through covariant renormalization

Kristian Berland

The kp method can be applied directly to first-principles energies and momentum matrix elements, but the resulting models converge slowly with the number of bands and are in…

Plasmonic properties and correlation energies from a compact multipole representation of the dielectric response in 2D metals

Dario A. Leon, Claudia Cardoso, Kristian Berland

Multipole-Padé approximants provide a compact representation of dynamical response functions in terms of a small number of collective modes. Here, we generalize this framework to i…

Momentum- and frequency-resolved collective electronic excitations in solids: insights from spectroscopy and first-principles calculations

Dario A. Leon, Kristian Berland

Collective electronic excitations, including plasmons, excitons, and intra- and interband transitions, play a central role in determining the dynamic screening, optical response, a…

Self-consistent layer-projected scissors operator for band structures of complex 2D van der Waals materials

Dario A. Leon, Mikael Kuisma, Mikkel Ohm Sauer +6

We introduce a computationally efficient method to calculate the quasiparticle (QP) band structure of general van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures. A layer-projected scissors (LAPS…

Spectral properties from an efficient analytical representation of the self-energy within a multipole approximation

Dario A. Leon, Kristian Berland, Claudia Cardoso

We propose an efficient analytical representation of the frequency-dependent self-energy via a multipole approximation (MPA-). The multipole-Padé model for the self-ene…

Thermoelectric transport of strained CsKSb: The role of electron velocities and scattering within extended Fermi surfaces

Øven A. Grimenes, G. Jeffrey Snyder, Ole M. Løvvik +1

In this first-principles study, we investigated the thermoelectric properties of the full-Heusler compound CsKSb at different compressive strains. This material exhibits a vale…
