Symmetry of Atoms and CrystalsIsolated Atom: spherical symmetry reduces 3D to 1D

Crystal: translational symmetry H(r) = H(r + T) leads to Bloch theorem

i(r)= kn (r)= e-ikr ukn(r)with

ukn(r) = ukn(r + T)

Bloch theorem reduces infinite degrees of freedomto integration of finite bands(n) over Brillouin zone(k)

Total Energy in DFT

E(Z,R,(r)) = i i + (1/2) ZZ/(|R-R|) - (1/2) drdr'(r)(r')/(|r-r'|) + dr [Exc(r)-Vxc(r)(r)]

9

Augmented BasisThe periodic function u is expanded,

ukn = G Ckn(G) G(r)by augmented planewaves (APW), which is atomic orbital

s near atomic core, and augmented by planewave at region far from the cores. With r = r-R, APW is defined as

G(r)=(1/)1/2 e-iGr outside all MT spheresor G(r)=L AL(G)ul(r)YL(r) in -MT spheres

Advantage: Acceptable basis(<100/atom) and exact overwhole space. Disadvantage: Basis depends on k, structure/potential.

10

LAPW BasisO.K.Anderson PR 12, 3060, 1975

D.D.Koeling et al. J.Phys.F 5, 2041, 1975

Linearized basisG(r) = (1/)1/2 e-iGr outside all MT spheresbut G(r) = L [ AL(G) ul(r) + BL(G) dul(r)/dr ] YL(r) in -MT sphere

which is both function value continuous and derivative continuous on the MT sphere boundary.

12

Planewave Basis and Pseudopotential

The periodic function u is expanded by the planewave basis,

ukn(r)=G Ckn(G)(1/V)1/2 e-iGr

Advantage: Basis is structureless and independent of k.

Disadvantage: Large basis (>1000/atom) if including cores.

Scheme: Pseudopotential makes its nodeless wavefunction identical to the real valence wavefunction beyond r>rc.

13

Pseudopotential - Norm ConserveNorm conserve and self-consistent: ‘Pseudopotentials

that work from H to Pu‘, G.B.Bachelet, D.R.Hamann, and M. Schluter,PRB26, 4199, 1982

14

Pseudopotential – Ultrasoft D.Vanderbilt, PRB 41, 7892 (1990)

This potential is chargestate dependent and

norm does not conserve.

However, it is well suit for plane-wave solid-state calculations, and show promise even for transition metals.

15

Tight Binding Basis (Atomic/Local Orbital)

The periodic function u is expanded ukn = m Ckn(m)km(r)

by atomic (LCAO),Gaussian (LCGO), and MT.orb. (LMTO)

km(r)=(1/N1/2) Te-ik(r-R-T))m(r-R-T)

Advantage: Minimum basis (10/atom) and exact cores.

Disadvantage: Basis depends on k and structure/potential;

Poor approximation at far from nuclei.

16

Slater-Koster Scheme

Spin Polarization in Crystals

Energy gain in intraatomic exchange

E = -(1/2) I ij

I : energy cost of generating an antiparallel pair of spins

E(m) = I [ (N/2+m/2)(N/2-m/2)- (N/2)(N/2)]

= -(1/4) I m2

25


Energy cost of spin polarization of band electrons in a crystal,

E = - dE { EF-(m/2):EF n(E)E

Ef

26


Energy gain over cost due to spin polarization

E = -(1/4)Im2 I + (1/4)( /n(EF)) m2

= -(1/4)(I- /n(EF)) m2

Condition for nonvanishing (spontaneous) atomic moment

I > 1/ n(EF) (Stoner-Wohlfarth criterion)

48

Vanishing Orbital MomentFor any time-inversion invariant system, H = -(1/2)2 + V(r), and TH = HT,its non-degenerate eigen-states have vanishing orbital mo

ment.

Proof: HT|>=TH|>=T|>, thus, T|>=|> -<|lz|>=<|Tlz|>=<|lz|> thus, <|lz|>=0 for any z axis i.e., |>=m(Cm|m>+C-m|-m>), and |C-m|=|C-m|

Also for evenly occupied degenerate states.

49

Origin of Orbital Polarization

1. H includes Zeeman term, –gLili.Happl

2. H includes the spin-orbit coupling

Hsl = i [(1/4c2r) V/r] li (r)i = i r li (r)i

when there is spin polarization.

Orbital Quench in Magnetic Solids Example: Fe dimer with 6x2 d electons

HOMO: contains two states consisting of |+1> and |-1> orbitals, separated by about

Concluding Remarks

• Electron levels, especially those close to Ef, affect spin polarization strongly.

• Interatomic exchange determines the spin configuration.

• Magnetic phase transition could be well simulated

• Orbital quench/polarization depends on spin-orbit coupling
