Tight binding model for magneto-crystalline anisotropy in MnBi

Calculation of magneto-crystalline anisotropy in transition metals

Calculation for Energy of (111) Surfaces of Palladium in Tight Binding Model

In this work calculation of energetics of transition metal surfaces is presented. The tight-binding model is employed in order to calculate the energetics. The tight-binding basis set is limited to d orbitals which are valid for elements at the end of transition metals series. In our analysis we concentrated on electronic effects at temperature T=0 K, this means that no entropic term will be pr...

Electronic structure and magneto-optical properties of MnBi and MnBiAl

A tight binding model for water.

We demonstrate for the first time a tight binding model for water incorporating polarizable oxygen atoms. A novel aspect is that we adopt a "ground up" approach in that properties of the monomer and dimer only are fitted. Subsequently we make predictions of the structure and properties of hexamer clusters, ice-XI and liquid water. A particular feature, missing in current tight binding and semie...

Scalable tight-binding model for graphene.

Artificial graphene consisting of honeycomb lattices other than the atomic layer of carbon has been shown to exhibit electronic properties similar to real graphene. Here, we reverse the argument to show that transport properties of real graphene can be captured by simulations using "theoretical artificial graphene." To prove this, we first derive a simple condition, along with its restrictions,...
