A tight-binding models which account for band mixing, strain and external applied potentials in a self-consistent fashion has been developed. This allows us to describe electronic and optical properties of nanostructured devices beyond the usual envelope function approximation. This model can be applied to direct and indirect gap semiconductors thus allowing for instance the self-consistent calculation of band profile and carrier control in pseudomorphic InGaAs/GaAs HEMTs and SiGe/Si MODFETs.

The intercalation of hydrogen ions and lithium ions in MoO3 films is realized by acidic ionic liquid gating, which modifies the electronic and optical properties of MoO3 films, is promising for designing multifunctional devices.

ABSTRACTThis paper presents the self-consistent tight-binding method of new generation which, unlike other tight-binding methods, allows one to calculate structural energies of multiatomic systems (molecules, clusters, defects in solids) and their spectroscopic energies in the framework of the same computational scheme and with comparable accuracy. Reliability of the method is illustrated considering defect state problems in crystalline and amorphous silicon (electron-enhanced-atomic diffusion, metastable defect creation, defects with effective-negative correlation energies, etc.) and comparing obtained results with ab initio calculations and experimental data.

AbstractWe calculate the electronic properties of austenite and martensite Fe-9%Mn alloys using the self consistent full-potential linearized-plane-wave method under the generalized gradient approximation full lattice relaxation. By minimizing total-energy, the lattice constants in their ground states were determined. We discuss the total energy dependence of the volume, and density of states (DOS).

ABSTRACTIn grain boundaries in compound semiconductors such as SiC, the interface stoichiometry and the wrong bonds between like atoms are of much importance. Firstly, a general definition of the interface stoichiometry in such grain boundaries has been discussed. Secondly, the atomic and electronic structures of the {211} Σ=3 boundary in SiC have been examined by using the self-consistent tight-binding method, based on the atomic models with bonding networks similar to those in the models of the same boundary in Si or Ge. The wrong bonds have significant effects through the large electrostatic repulsion and the generation of localized states as well as those in the {122} Σ=9 boundary in SiC. And the different bond lengths of the wrong bonds very much affect the local bond distortions at the interfaces, which determines the relative stability among the present models.
