ABSTRACTA model based on the state-of-the-art, first-principles layer Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (LKKR) method has proven to be very effective in describing the electronic and magnetic structure of metal/ceramic interfaces. We have performed self-consistent field computations incorporating spin polarization both for Fe/MgO superlattice (bulk technique) and for MgO/Fe/MgO sandwich (layer technique) systems. Muffin-tin potentials were employed for both materials in our computations. Iron layer was embedded in MgO, the host material, to have a [110](100)Fe / [100](100)MgO contact configuration. A large enhancement of magnetic moments has been found at the interface.

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.

We present a theoretical framework for the computation of anharmonic vibrational frequencies for large systems, with a particular focus on determining adsorbate frequencies from first principles. We give a detailed account of our local implementation of the vibrational self-consistent field approach and its correlation corrections. We show that our approach is both robust, accurate and can be easily deployed on computational grids in order to provide an efficient computational tool. We also present results on the vibrational spectrum of hydrogen fluoride on pyrene, on the thiophene molecule in the gas phase, and on small neutral gold clusters.

In this paper we first describe the multi-configuration self-consistent field method with configuration interaction (MCSCF-CI) which is a variational method most suitable for strongly-correlated cluster systems. Then the calculated results of CuO 6 cluster embedded in hole-doped La 2-x Sr x CuO 4 and of CuO 4 cluster in the electron-doped Nd 2-x Ce x CuO 4 are reviewed. Finally the calculated results on the electronic structure of CuO 5 pyramid embedded in the insulating YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6 and superconducting YBa2Cu3O7 are newly presented. In the latter case we will clarify an important role of the Cu-O chain in the electronic and superconducting state of YBa2Cu3O7 .

Binary interatomic potentials F-F, F-Si, F-O, F-C and F-H are calculated from the first principles (ab initio) on the basis of the multi-configuration method of self-consistent field (CAS-SCF) with a basic set of atomic wave functions aug-pp-AV6Z and are used to calculate phase shifts and cross sections of elastic scattering of atoms in the range of relative kinetic energies 2-200 eV. It is expected that the obtained elastic scattering cross sections will be useful for describing sputtering and etching of porous organosilicate films with ethylene bridges used in modern nanoelectronics.
