First-principles characterization of ferromagnetic Mn5Ge3 for spintronic applications
S. Picozzi, A. Continenza, A. J. Freeman
In the active search for potentially promising candidates for spintronic applications, we focus on the intermetallic ferromagnetic Mn5Ge3 compound and perform accurate first-princi…
Superconducting properties of MgB2 from first principles
A. Floris, G. Profeta, N. N. Lathiotakis +6
Solid MgB has rather interesting and technologically important properties, such as a very high superconducting transition temperature. Focusing on this compound, we report the…
Ab-initio theory of superconductivity - II: Applications to elemental metals
M. A. L. Marques, M. Lüders, N. N. Lathiotakis +6
The density functional theory for superconductors developed in the preceding article [cond-mat/0408685] is applied to the calculation of superconducting properties of several eleme…
Ab-initio theory of superconductivity - I: Density functional formalism and approximate functionals
M. Lüders, M. A. L. Marques, N. N. Lathiotakis +6
A novel approach to the description of superconductors in thermal equilibrium is developed within a formally exact density-functional framework. The theory is formulated in terms o…
