<p></p><p>The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) often fails to correctly describe the electronic structure and thermochemistry of transition metal oxides and is commonly improved using an inexpensive correction term with a scaling parameter <i>U</i>. We tune <i>U</i> to reproduce experimental vanadium oxide redox energetics with a localized basis and a GGA functional. We find the value for <i>U</i> to be significantly lower than what is generally reported with plane-wave bases, with the uncorrected GGA results being in reasonable agreement with experiments. We use this computational setup to calculate interstitial and substitutional <a>insertion energies of main group metals in vanadium pentoxide</a> and find <a>interstitial doping to be thermodynamically favored</a>.</p><p></p>

Ternary Carbides

The Cr2AlC and V2AlC nanolayered ternary carbides are studied by performing APW-lo ab initio total energy calculations within the recent Wu-Cohen generalized gradient approximation GGA. Using full relaxation procedure of the volume and the atomic positions we obtained the structural parameters and electronic structure of the optimization hexagonal. Results were compared with the experimental ones. Interesting features are deduced. In fact, we have shown why these materials are conductors.
