The decoupled DFT- method for defect excitation energies

Joshua Claes, Bart Partoens, Dirk Lamoen

The DFT- method is a band gap correction with GW precision at a DFT computational cost. The method was also extended to correct the gap between defect levels, allowing…

Charge localization, frustration relief, and spin-orbit coupling in UO

Rolando Saniz, Gianguido Baldinozzi, Ine Arts +3

Research efforts on the low temperature magnetic order and electronic properties of UO have been inconclusive so far. Reinterpreting neutron scattering results, we use grou…

First-principles study of defects at grain boundaries in CuGaSe

R. Saniz, J. bekaert, B. Partoens +1

We present a first-principles computational study of cation-Se 3 (112) grain boundaries in CuGaSe. We discuss the structure of these grain boundaries, as well as the effect…

First-principles study of CO and OH adsorption on In-doped ZnO surfaces

R. Saniz, N. Sarmadian, B. Partoens +6

We present a first-principles computational study of non-polar ZnO (100) surfaces doped with indium. The calculations were performed using a model ZnO slab. The position o…

Exceeding the Shockley-Queisser limit within the detailed balance framework

Marnik Bercx, Rolando Saniz, Bart Partoens +1

The Shockley-Queisser limit is one of the most fundamental results in the field of photovoltaics. Based on the principle of detailed balance, it defines an upper limit for a single…
