ABSTRACTA KKR program for self-consistent electronic structure and total energy calculations of complex solids has been developed. This program has been used to study structural, electronic and magnetic properties of a number of solids. In this paper, we give a description of several numerical techniques used in this KKR program which might be of use to other practitioners. We also present some results obtained using this program: c/a ratio of hexagonal Y, elastic constants of Mo, TiC and MgO, and static spin susceptibility of Pd.

ABSTRACTBased on extensive first-principles total-energy calculations we study the electronic structure, atomic geometry and energetics of atomic hydrogen in cubic GaN. All charge states of hydrogen (H+, H0, H-) are examined. For H- the gallium tetrahedral interstitial site is energetically most stable. All other sites are much higher in energy, indicating a high diffusion barrier for H- in GaN. H+ favors positions on a sphere with a radius of ≈ 1 Å and a nitrogen atom in the center. Among these positions the nitrogen antibonding site is energetically most stable. An unexpectedly large negative-U effect (U = —2.5eV) indicates that H0 is unstable.

AbstractWe discuss calculations of the electronic and crystallographic structure at the interfaces of titanium-carbon and tungsten-carbon superlattices. Specifically, we present total energy calculations for an arrangement of atoms designed to allow direct investigation of the competition between the formation of M-C bonds and C-C bonds. We conclude that the equilibrium structure is dominated by C-C bonding and so find that the interface has a graphite-like atomic arrangement rather than a carbide-like arrangement. These total energy calculations have been performed using a recently developed self-consistent linear combination of muffin-tin orbitals electronic structure method. This is a full-potential, all-electron, variation on standard LMTO electronic structure methods and, along with careful self-consistent determination of the parameters involved, allows accurate total energy calculations of the type of low symmetry systems involved in this study.
