چکیده

We describe the application of the reduced-basis method in rapid and accurate determination of band energies in band structure calculations. The method is well suited for problems requiring repetitive evaluations of the band energies, especially in the many-query limit. We demonstrate the efficacy of the method in the determination of the spectral properties of crystalline silicon.

بررسی ساختار نواری بلور حالت جامد 60 fcc-C

We studied the architecture of the C60 cluster to drive its atomic positions which can be seen at room temperature. We then used the obtained carbon positions as a basis set for the fcc structure to construct the fcc-C60 compound. Self consistent calculations were performed based on the density functional theory (DFT) utilizing the accurate WIEN2K code to solve the single-particle Kohen-Sham eq...

An efficient finite difference time domain algorithm for band structure calculations of Phononic crystal

In this paper, a new algorithm for studying elastic wave propagation in the phononic crystals is presented. At first, the displacement-based forms of elastic wave equations are derived and then the forms are discretized using finite difference method. So the new algorithm is called the displacement-based finite difference time domain (DBFDTD). Three numerical examples are computed with this met...

New Method for Synthesis of Zinc Metaborate Zn4B6O13 Crystals via Sol-Gel Process and Investigation of DFT Calculations

In this work facile sol-gel (pechni) method has been successfully established to synthesize Zn4B6O13 nanocrystals which have cubic crystals with lattice parameter: a =7.48 A. The structure and morphology of the obtained material were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Infrared spectra (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and photoluminescence analysis. The experimental results show a band ...

Structure and electronic properties of single–walled zigzag BN and B3C2N3 nanotubes using first-principles methods

The structure and the electronic properties of single-walled zigzag BN and B3C2N3 nanotubes (n, 0; n=4–10) were investigated using first-principles calculations based on a density functional theory. A plane–wave basis set with periodic boundary conditions in conjunction with Vanderbilt ultrasoft pseudo-potential was employed. The energy gap of ZB3C<su...
