Ab Initio Study of the Work Functions of Elemental Metal Crystals
THIS thesis is concerned with the theoretical study of the physical characteristics of metallic surfaces. Ab initio quantum calculations are performed to determine the electronic properties of clean elemental metal surfaces, fully accounting for the material’s atomic structure. We aim to understand the atomicscale mechanisms responsible for the dependence of the work function on the surface geo...
متن کاملHigh-pressure phases of the alkali metals
A series of recent x-ray diffraction experiments carried out by scientists from the Max-PlanckInstitut FKF in Stuttgart and the ESRF in Grenoble on elemental semiconductors and alkali metals under high pressure have provided new insight in pressure induced structural transformations. New structures have been identified, and some of these have surprising similarities, such as low coordination nu...
متن کاملTheoretical study of intermolecular potential energy and second virial coefficient in the mixtures of CH4 and H2CO gases
To get a mole of a gas, it is necessary to calculate the intermolecular interaction. Theseintermolecular interactions can be depicted by drawing the potential energy of a pair molecule inrelation to the distance. The intermolecular potential energy surface in the mixtures of CH4-H2COgases from ab initio calculations has been explored. In ab initio calculations the basis setsuperposition error (...
متن کاملAB-INITIO CALCULATION OF PHASE STABILITY IN MECHANICALLY UNSTABLE PHASES Undergraduate Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation with Distinction
3 Abstract Ab-initio calculations have been hugely successful in the past decade in providing the necessary free energies to predict phase transformations and phase stability for elemental and alloyed materials. The application of ab-initio methods, however, is problematic when it comes to model metals and their alloys with mechanically unstable hightemperature phases, such as the bcc high-temp...
متن کاملAb-initio study of Electronic, Optical, Dynamic and Thermoelectric properties of CuSbX2 (X=S,Se) compounds
Abstract: In this work we investigate the electronic, optical, dynamic and thermoelectric properties of ternary copper-based Chalcogenides CuSbX2 (X= S, Se) compounds. Calculations are based on density functional theory and the semi-classical Boltzmann theory. Computations have been carried out by using Quantum-Espresso (PWSCF) package and ab-initio pseudo-potential technique. To estimate the e...
