Accounting for spin fluctuations beyond local spin density approximation in the density functional theory
We present a method to correct the magnetic properties of itinerant systems in the local-spin-density approximation (LSDA), and we apply it to the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition under pressure in a typical itinerant system Ni3Al. We obtain a scaling of the critical fluctuations as a function of pressure equivalent to the one obtained within Moryia’s theory. Moreover, we show that in this...

متن کاملProperties of Simple Metals Beyond the Local Density Approximation of Density Functional Theory
We calculated lattice parameters, binding energies, bulk moduli, and phase stabilities of some simple metals: Li, Be, Na, Mg, and Al. Our ab initio all-electron calculations were done within the framework of density functional theory using the Crystal-98 program. The accuracy of different functionals for exchange and correlation energies that go beyond the local density approximation (LDA) was ...
متن کاملA model for semiconductor quantum dot molecule based on the current spin density functional theory
Based on the current spin density functional theory, a theoretical model of three vertically aligned semiconductor quantum dots is proposed and numerically studied. This quantum dot molecule (QDM) model is treated with realistic hard-wall confinement potential and external magnetic field in three-dimensional setting. Using the effective-mass approximation with band nonparabolicity, the many-bod...
متن کاملQuantum Hydrodynamic Model of Density Functional Theory
In this paper, we extend the method in [5] to derive a class of quantum hydrodynamic models for the density-functional theory (DFT). The most popular implement of DFT is the Kohn-Sham equation, which transforms a many-particle interacting system into a fictitious non-interacting one-particle system. The Kohn-Sham equation is a non-linear Schrödinger equation, and the corresponding Wigner equati...
