The Electromigration Force in Metallic Bulk
A. Lodder, J. P. Dekker
The voltage induced driving force on a migrating atom in a metallic system is discussed in the perspective of the Hellmann-Feynman force concept, local screening concepts and the l…
Resistivity due to low-symmetrical defects in metals
J. P. Dekker, A. Lodder, J. van Ek
The impurity resistivity, also known as the residual resistivity, is calculated ab initio using multiple-scattering theory. The mean-free path is calculated by solving the Boltzman…
Theory for the electromigration wind force in dilute alloys
J. P. Dekker, A. Lodder, J. van Ek
A multiple scattering formulation for the electromigration wind force on atoms in dilute alloys is developed. The theory describes electromigration via a vacancy mechanism. The met…
Accurate evaluation of the interstitial KKR-Green function
J. P. Dekker, A. Lodder, R. Zeller +1
It is shown that the Brillouin zone integral for the interstitial KKR-Green function can be evaluated accurately by taking proper care of the free-electron singularities in the int…
