AbstractIn this works, we study the electronic structure and magnetic properties of the Pr-Ni-Bi half-Heusler systems based on density functional theory. We use the σ GGA + U scheme to consider the effects of on-site electron-electron interactions. Results show that in contrast to the rough estimation of the total magnetic moment of the unit cell, based on the Slater-Pauling behavior in the half-Heusler systems, this system has an antiferromagnetic ground state because of the localized Pr-f electrons. By increasing the magnitude of the effective U parameter, band-inversion occurs in the band structure of this system, which shows the possibility of topological state occurrence.

Energy Approximation

The electronic structure of the perovskite manganites AlMnO3cubic crystal was presented. The calculations were made within density functional theory and PBE exchange correlations energy approximation. It was found that the crystal exhibit covalent bonding between Mn and O with superexchange mechanism. At groundstate, AlMnO3stabilizes in antiferromagnetic structure with semi metallic like nature at the ground state.

Different Strains

Density of states and band structure of wurtzite ZnO are calculated by the CASTEP program based on density functional theory and plane-wave pseudopotential method. The calculations are carried out in axial and unaxial strains, respectively. The results of density of states in different strains show that the bottom of the conduction band is always dominated by Zn 4s, and the top of valence band is always dominated by O 2p. The variation of the band gap calculated from band structure is also discussed. In addition, p-d repulsion is used in investigating the variation of the top of the valence band in different strains and the results can be verified by electron density difference.

Reflectivity Spectrum

based on Density Functional Theory, we investigated the optical structures and the electronic properties of Cu doped SnO2with density of 12.5%, including band structure, the density of state (dos), Dielectric function and optical absorption spectrum. The results show that Fermi level access conduction band gradually with the doped density. It has enhanced the electrical and metal property of material. The peaks of reflectivity spectrum and absorption spectrum correspond density of state.

Magic Cluster

The lowest-energy geometric and isomers of freestanding Co n clusters (n = 2 - 10) and their corresponding magnetic moments have been studied using the Siesta code based on pseudopotential density-functional theory. The calculated results show that there are many isomers near the ground state. Different isomers hold different magnetic moment. The stability study shows that among the investigated clusters, the hexamer one is the most stable and is the magic cluster. Dissociation channels energy are also studied.
