MgB2各向异性光学性质的第一性原理研究

使用密度泛函第一性原理研究了超导体MgB2单晶各向异性的光学性质.在描述光学性质的基本理论和计算方法的基础上,计算了MgB2的光电导谱、反射谱以及电子能量损失谱,并通过MgB2的各个原子分解态密度图对所得到的反射谱和损失谱的各个谱峰做了详尽地分析.从光电导谱上来看,x方向与z方向有着很大差别,而在反射谱与电子能量损失谱中,x方向与z方向的特征峰位置都是相互符合的.从光导谱来看,沿x方向的第一个带间吸收峰出现在20000 cm-1处,而沿z方向出现在40000 cm-1处.考虑到温度效应对其光学性质的影响,在计算光学矩阵元时加入Lorentz展宽δ=0.10 eV.计算结果和最近实验结果有比较好的一致,只是带间吸收谱峰位置和实验之间存在约1000cm-1(～0.124 eV)的差别.总体上该研究的计算结果从定性上和定量上都与最新各向异性光电导实验结果在误差范围内符合很好.     

AB INITIO STUDY ON THE ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE AND MAGNETISM OF MnAs, MnSb, AND MnBi

We report the results of first-principles calculations on the electronic structure in ferromagnetic and non-magnetic hexagonal MnV (V=As, Sb, Bi). The calculations are based on the local-spin-density approximation (LSDA) of the density-functional theory (DFT) as well as the atomic sphere approximation (ASA) in the linear muffin-tin orbitals (LMTO) method. For the non-spin-polarized case, the calculated bands in these compounds exhibit p-d mixing in the vicnity of Fermi energy and the Mn 3d bands dominate the antibonding parts of p-d hybride. The spin-polarization in ferromagnetic states are mainly due to the splitting of anti-bonding bands from p-d mixing. The calculated spin moments in these compounds agree fairly well with experimental values and refine previous band calculations. In the spin-polarized band structure, the Mn 3d electrons are found to exhibit week dispersions.
