ABSTRACTWe present a formulation of the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent potential approximation (KKPt-CPA) for the treatment of substitutionally disordered alloys within the KKR atomic-sphere approximation (ASA). This KKR-ASA-CPA represents the first step toward the implementation of a full cell potential CPA, and combines the accuracy of the KKR-CPA method with the flexibility of treating complex crystal structures. The accuracy of this approach has been tested by comparing the self-consistent-field (SCF) KKR-ASA-CPA calculations of Cu-Pd alloys with experimental results and previous SCF-KKR-CPA calculations.

The Stability

ABSTRACTThe effect of Ni substitution in LaNi5 by 3d and s-p elements on the electronic structure of the intermetallic and its hydrides has been investigated using the self consistent linear muffin tin orbital (LMTO) method in the atomic sphere approximation (ASA). The Fermi level, EF, of LaNi4M (M = Fe,Co,Mn) is found to lie in the narrow additional M 3d subband above the Ni d states, leading to an increase in the density of states (DOS) at EF. In contrast, the substitution of Ni by an s element of the 3d series, Cu, or by an s-p element: Al or Sn results in a progressive filling of the Ni-d bands and in a decrease of the DOS at EF. In all the substituted intermetallic compounds, we find that the lattice expansion accounts for less than 50% of the observed decreased stability, this shows the importance of the effect of chemical substitution. We also discuss the factors which affect the electronic structure and the stability of the hydrides and compare our results with available experimental data.

We present a first principles approach for decomposing molecular linear response properties into orthogonal (additive) plus non-orthogonal/cooperative contributions. This approach enables one to 1) identify the contributions of molecular building blocks like functional groups or monomer units to a given response property and 2) quantify cooperativity between these contributions. In analogy to the self consistent field method for molecular interactions, SCF(MI), we term our approach LR(MI). The theory, implementation and pilot data are described in detail in the manuscript and supporting information.
