We propose an alternative formulation of many-body perturbation theory that uses the density-functional concept. Instead of the usual four-point integral equation for the polarizability, we obtain a two-point one, which leads to excellent optical absorption and energy-loss spectra. The corresponding three-point vertex function and self-energy are then simply calculated via an integration, for any level of approximation. Moreover, we show the direct impact of this formulation on the time-dependent density-functional theory. Numerical results for the band gap of bulk silicon and solid argon illustrate corrections beyond the GW approximation for the self-energy. 相似文献

We discuss an implementation of the self-interaction correction for the local-density approximation to time-dependent density-functional theory. A variational formulation is given, taking care of the necessary constraints. A manageable and transparent propagation scheme using two sets of wave functions is proposed and applied to laser excitation with subsequent ionization of a dimer molecule. 相似文献

We construct the exact exchange-correlation potential of time-dependent density-functional theory and the approximation to it that is adiabatic but exact otherwise. For the strong-field double ionization of the Helium atom these two potentials are virtually identical. Thus, memory effects play a negligible role in this paradigm process of nonlinear, nonperturbative electron dynamics. We identify the regime of high-frequency excitations where the adiabatic approximation breaks down and explicitly calculate the nonadiabatic contribution to the exchange-correlation potential. 相似文献

Octopus is a general-purpose density-functional theory (DFT) code, with a particular emphasis on the time-dependent version of DFT (TDDFT). In this paper we present the ongoing efforts to achieve the parallelization of octopus. We focus on the real-time variant of TDDFT, where the time-dependent Kohn-Sham equations are directly propagated in time. This approach has great potential for execution in massively parallel systems such as modern supercomputers with thousands of processors and graphics processing units (GPUs). For harvesting the potential of conventional supercomputers, the main strategy is a multi-level parallelization scheme that combines the inherent scalability of real-time TDDFT with a real-space grid domain-partitioning approach. A scalable Poisson solver is critical for the efficiency of this scheme. For GPUs, we show how using blocks of Kohn-Sham states provides the required level of data parallelism and that this strategy is also applicable for code optimization on standard processors. Our results show that real-time TDDFT, as implemented in octopus, can be the method of choice for studying the excited states of large molecular systems in modern parallel architectures. 相似文献

A new parameter-free approximation for the exchange-correlation kernel f(xc) of time-dependent density-functional theory is proposed. This kernel is expressed as an algorithm in which the exact Dyson equation for the response, as well as an approximate expression for f(xc) in terms of the dielectric function, are solved together self-consistently, leading to a simple parameter-free kernel. We apply this to the calculation of optical spectra for various small band gap (Ge, Si, GaAs, AlN, TiO(2), SiC), large band gap (C, LiF, Ar, Ne), and magnetic (NiO) insulators. The calculated spectra are in very good agreement with the experiment for this diverse set of materials, highlighting the universal applicability of the new kernel. 相似文献

We introduce a new class of exchange-correlation potentials for a static and time-dependent density-functional theory of strongly correlated systems in 3D. The potentials are obtained via dynamical mean-field theory and, for strong enough interactions, exhibit a discontinuity at half-filling density, a signature of the Mott transition. For time-dependent perturbations, the dynamics is described in the adiabatic local density approximation. Results from the new scheme compare very favorably to exact ones in clusters. As an application, we study Bloch oscillations in the 3D Hubbard model. 相似文献

We illustrate the scope of time-dependent density-functional theory for strongly correlated (lattice) models out of equilibrium. Using the exact many-body time evolution, we reverse engineer the exact exchange correlation (xc) potential v_(xc) for small Hubbard chains exposed to time-dependent fields. We introduce an adiabatic local density approximation to v_(xc) for the 1D Hubbard model and compare it to exact results, to gain insight about approximate xc potentials. Finally, we provide some remarks on the v-representability for the 1D Hubbard model. 相似文献

The energy dissipation into electron-hole pairs has been simulated ab initio within time-dependent density-functional theory for spin-unpolarized hydrogen atoms interacting with the Al on-top site at the Al(1 1 1) surface. The electron-hole pair excitation spectra are characterized by an approximately exponentially decaying tail of the electron energy distribution. It is shown that both the energy dissipated into electron-hole pairs and the excitation spectra, and hence the chemicurrent yield, show an isotope dependence identical to what expected from the linear friction ansatz and the forced oscillator model. 相似文献

Employing a near exact Hylleraas wavefunction we calculate various third-order nonlinear optical properties for the helium
atom within the time-dependent Kohn-Sham theory. In our calculations we employ the adiabatic local-density approximation (ALDA)
for the exchange and correlation kernels fxc and gxc, and compare the numbers obtained by us with the available accurate theoretical as well as experimental results. Our results
demonstrate the accuracy of ALDA for the calculation of nonlinear optical properties of many electron systems.

A spin-current density-functional theory (SCDFT) is introduced, which takes into account the currents of the spin density and thus currents of the magnetization in addition to the electron density, the noncollinear spin density, and the density current, which are considered in standard current-spin-density-functional theory. An exact-exchange Kohn-Sham formalism based on SCDFT is presented, which represents a general framework for the treatment of magnetic and spin properties. As an illustration, an oxygen atom in a magnetic field is treated with the new approach. 相似文献

Electronic structure of ScN and YN: density-functional theory LDA and GW approximation calculations 下载免费PDF全文
The desirable physical properties of hardness, high temperature
stability, and conductivity make the early transition metal nitrides
important materials for various technological applications. To learn
more about the nature of these materials, the local-density
approximation(LDA) and GW approximation i.e. combination of the
Green function G and the screened Coulomb interaction W, have been
performed. This paper investigates the bulk electronic and physical
properties of early transition metal mononitrides, ScN and YN in the
rocksalt structure. In this paper, the semicore electrons are
regarded as valance electrons. ScN appears to be a semimetal, and YN
is semiconductor with band gap of 0.142eV within the LDA, but are
in fact semiconductors with indirect band gaps of 1.244 and
0.544\,eV respectively, as revealed by calculations performed using
GW approximation. 相似文献
