The natural band alignments between indium phosphide and the main dioxides of titanium, i.e. rutile, anatase, and brookite as well as amorphous titania are calculated from the branch-point energies of the respective materials. Irrespective of the titania polymorph considered, type-I band alignment is predicted. This may change, however, in dependence on the microscopic interface structure: supercell calculations for amorphous titania grown on P-rich InP(001) surfaces result in a titania conduction band that nearly aligns with that of InP. Depending on the interface specifics, both type-I band and type-II band alignments are observed in the simulations. This agrees with recent experimental findings.}},

The quasiparticle band structures are used to calculate the linear response and second-harmonic-generation (SHG) spectra of the Zn–VI compounds.

abstract = {{The vibrational properties of stoichiometric LiNbO3 are analyzed within density-functional perturbation theory in order to obtain the complete phonon dispersion of the material. The phonon density of states of the ferroelectric (paraelectric) phase shows two (one) distinct band gaps separating the high-frequency (~800 cm−1) optical branches from the continuum of acoustic and lower optical phonon states. This result leads to specific heat capacites in close agreement with experimental measurements in the range 0–350 K and a Debye temperature of 574 K. The calculated zero-point renormalization of the electronic Kohn–Sham eigenvalues reveals a strong dependence on the phonon wave vectors, especially near Γ. Integrated over all phonon modes, our results indicate a vibrational correction of the electronic band gap of 0.41 eV at 0 K, which is in excellent agreement with the extrapolated temperature-dependent measurements.}},

abstract = {{The Kane–Mele model was previously used to describe effective spin–orbit couplings (SOCs) in graphene. Here we extend this model and also incorporate curvature effects to analyze the combined influence of SOC and curvature on the band structure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The extended model then reproduces the chirality-dependent asymmetric electron-hole splitting for semiconducting CNTs and in the band structure for metallic CNTs shows an opening of the band gap and a change of the Fermi wave vector with spin. For chiral semiconducting CNTs with large chiral angle we show that the spin-splitting configuration of bands near the Fermi energy depends on the value of $\text{mod}(2n+m,3)$ .}},

abstract = {{In this article we study the elemental distribution and solute solubility in nanocrystalline alloys of immiscible components near restricted equilibrium for the case of the binary Cu–Ag system. As predicted from thermodynamic considerations, a grain boundary segregated monophase alloy is observed in the annealed mechanically alloyed state for low Ag content by using atom probe tomography. From the detected Ag solute grain boundary enrichment the
segregation free enthalpy is estimated to range between -25 and -49 kJ mol^-1 following the McLean equation, in agreement with values reported for coarse-grained Cu–Ag. The extension of the alloying range is described by a two-domain thermodynamic model that considers the excess free volume in the grain boundaries and the strain in the strain interior on the basis of the universal equation of state at negative pressure. To access the grain boundary volumetric strain experimentally, a method based on a combination of density measurements and microscopical quantification of closed pore areas is presented. Moreover, we apply x-ray diffraction line broadening analysis to determine the local strain amplitude, which yields a root-mean-square microstrain of 0.3% for a grain size of 30 nm. It is shown that the grain boundary free volume represents the major origin for the global solubility enhancement in
nanocrystalline Cu–Ag at 503 K.}},

@article{18542,
abstract = {{We present recent advances in numerical implementations of hybrid functionals and the GW approximation within the full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave (FLAPW) method. The former is an approximation for the exchange–correlation contribution to the total energy functional in density-functional theory, and the latter is an approximation for the electronic self-energy in the framework of many-body perturbation theory. All implementations employ the mixed product basis, which has evolved into a versatile basis for the products of wave functions, describing the incoming and outgoing states of an electron that is scattered by interacting with another electron. It can thus be used for representing the nonlocal potential in hybrid functionals as well as the screened interaction and related quantities in GW calculations. In particular, the six-dimensional space integrals of the Hamiltonian exchange matrix elements (and exchange self-energy) decompose into sums over vector–matrix–vector products, which can be evaluated easily. The correlation part of the GW self-energy, which contains a time or frequency dependence, is calculated on the imaginary frequency axis with a subsequent analytic continuation to the real axis or, alternatively, by a direct frequency convolution of the Green function G and the dynamically screened Coulomb interaction W along a contour integration path that avoids the poles of the Green function. Hybrid-functional and GW calculations are notoriously computationally expensive. We present a number of tricks that reduce the computational cost considerably, including the use of spatial and time-reversal symmetries, modifications of the mixed product basis with the aim to optimize it for the correlation self-energy and another modification that makes the Coulomb matrix sparse, analytic expansions of the interaction potentials around the point of divergence at k=0, and a nested density and density-matrix convergence scheme for hybrid-functional calculations. We show CPU timings for prototype semiconductors and illustrative results for GdN and ZnO. }},
