Spin-Dependent Nonorthogonal Generalized Wannier Functions and their Integration with PAW and Hubbard Corrections in Linear-Scaling DFT

Miguel Escobar Azor, David D. O'Regan, Ali Safavi +3

We present a spin-dependent extension of the non-orthogonal generalized Wannier function (NGWF) formalism within the framework of linear-scaling density functional theory (LS-DFT)…

Accurate bandgaps of photovoltaic kesterites from first-principles DFT+U

Andrew C. Burgess, Lórien MacEnulty, Ethan D'Arcy +2

Streamlined prediction of the electronic properties of photoactive materials warrants a Density Functional Theory (DFT) based approach that (i) yields reliable bandgaps, (ii) is fr…

Benchmarking total energies with Hund's J terms in Hubbard-corrected spin-crossover chemistry

Lórien MacEnulty, João Paulo Almeida de Mendonça, Roberta Poloni +1

The effect of the Hund's J terms in various DFT+U+J corrections to semi-local spin-density functional theory is assessed for a series of four octahedrally coordinated Fe(II) spin-c…

Low-energy, ultrafast spin reorientation at competing hybrid interfaces with tunable operating temperature

Servet Ozdemir, Matthew Rogers, Jaka Strohsack +12

Information can be stored in magnetic materials by encoding with the direction of the magnetic moment of elements. A figure of merit for these systems is the energy needed to chang…

Flat-plane based double-counting free and parameter free many-body DFT+U

Andrew C. Burgess, David D. O'Regan

Burgess et al. have recently introduced the BLOR corrective exchange-correlation functional that is, by construction, the unique simplified rotationally-invariant DFT+U functional…
