The influence of correlation and temperature on the electronic structure of bulk and
thin film GdN
has been studied using the s-f model, which combines
the one electron band structure with a many body procedure.
The tight binding linear muffin tin orbital (TB-LMTO) method was used to obtain
the one electron band structure of
the system. The s-f exchange coupling constants
for each band were obtained from the spin polarized band structure of
the system using a mean field model.
Correlation effects are found to be present in the system. However they
are not sufficiently strong to cause a correlation induced splitting in the
spectrum. Some bands of the thin films of GdN exhibit splitting at T=Tc
and it is due to the combined effect
of correlation and temperature. The conduction bands of both the bulk and
the thin films of GdN exhibit a red shift with respect to temperature. 相似文献

A model is proposed that treats electrons at surfaces as a combination of two-dimensional and three-dimensional degrees of
freedom. This yields a simple formula for the surface state induced resonant enhancement of the transfer of electrons through
a surface. The model also yields analytic approximations for the transition between two-dimensional and three-dimensional
distance laws in the correlations between electrons in surface states.

By means of band structure calculations within the density functional
theory and the generalized gradient approximation, we investigate the
electronic structure of self-organized Pt nanowires on the Ge(001) surface.
In particular, we deal with a novel one-dimensional surface state confined
in the nanowire array and clarify its origin. Due to large Pt contributions,
the novel state is rather a mixed Ge–Pt hybrid state than a confined Ge
surface state. Moreover, we compare our results to data from scanning
tunneling microscopy. 相似文献

We present first theoretical evidence revealing the influence of structural changes on the spin-polarized surface states of
large Co nanoislands grown on
Cu(111). The minority density of electronic states possesses
a pronounced peak whose energetic position depends sensitively on
the Co layers stacking order. Our results suggest a way to deduce
the stacking order of large Co nanoislands using scanning tunnelling
microscopy/spectroscopy. 相似文献

We present high-resolution photoemission data from the Bi(111)-surface. The electronic structure of the semimetal close to
the Fermi level has been found to change dramatically with respect to the well established bulk band structure. The Fermi
surfaces observed for the electron and hole bands resemble those of the next group-V element, antimony, probably as a consequence
of surface relaxation. This results in a relatively high surface charge density. The observed temperature dependence of the
electron Fermi energy confirms this result.

The electronic properties of rare-earth arsenides have been calculated from first principles. In the calculations we have
treated the rare-earth f electrons both as core-like and as valence-like electrons. We consider the changes in the energy bands and in the density
of states near the Fermi level which are found to be relevant, except for the case of LuAs, and discuss this in relation with
the role played from the rare-earth 5d derived states. Moreover we show that the rare-earth 5d related bands are particularly sensitive to the variation of the lattice constant; change in the lattice constant of less
than 1% leads to a different behaviour with respect to the crossing of the rare-earth 5d derived bands and the As 4p derived bands along the Δ-direction. This point is discussed in connection with the possibility of having a semimetal-semiconductor
transition in the rare-earth arsenides.

The electronic and geometrical properties of bulk americium and square and
hexagonal americium monolayers have been studied with the full-potential
linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. The effects of several
common approximations are examined: (1) non-spin polarization (NSP) vs. spin
polarization (SP); (2) scalar-relativity (no spin-orbit coupling (NSO)) vs.
full-relativity (i.e., with spin-orbit (SO) coupling included); (3)
local-density approximation (LDA) vs. generalized-gradient approximation
(GGA). Our results indicate that both spin polarization and spin orbit
coupling play important roles in determining the geometrical and electronic
properties of americium bulk and monolayers. A compression of both americium
square and hexagonal monolayers compared to the americium bulk is also
observed. In general, the LDA is found to underestimate the equilibrium
lattice constant and give a larger total energy compared to the GGA
calculations. While spin orbit coupling shows a similar effect on both
square and hexagonal monolayer calculations regardless of the model, GGA
versus LDA, an unusual spin polarization effect on both square and hexagonal
monolayers is found in the LDA results as compared with the GGA results. The
5f delocalization transition of americium is employed to explain our observed
unusual spin polarization effect. In addition, our results at the LDA level
of theory indicate a possible 5f delocalization could happen in the americium
surface within the same Am II (fcc crystal structure) phase, unlike the
usually reported americium 5f delocalization which is associated with crystal
structure change. The similarities and dissimilarities between the
properties of an Am monolayer and a Pu monolayer are discussed in detail. 相似文献

Synchrotron radiation (SR) pulses are used to eject electrons from a gold substrate covered with organized organic thin films
(OOTF) in order to investigate their transmission probability through the OOTF as a function of the electron initial kinetic
energy. By variation of the SR photon energy within a few eV above the Au-4f binding energy levels we controlled the initial kinetic energy of the substrate electrons. The observed oscillations in the
transmission probability for porphyrin-based films as a function of the kinetic energy is argued to be due to effects of band
structure above the vacuum level in the well-ordered molecular adsorbate. We also present valence photoemission spectra (PES)
of different type OOTF and demonstrate how their coverage of the substrate affects the PES.

A novel polymer system containing charged diblock polymers grafted onto a planar surface, simple salt and solvent has been
considered in the framework of a mean-field lattice theory. On the basis of predicted volume fraction profiles of polymer
segments, free ends, block junctions, and small ions, a detailed picture of the system has emerged. It is found that the structure
of the polymer brush is decisively dependent of the relative charge of the blocks. For certain conditions, bimodal profiles
appear which demonstrate the simultaneous presence of two types of chain conformations, one coiled and one stretched.

A mean-field lattice theory is applied to predict the self-assembly into ordered structures of an ABC triblock copolymer in
selective solvent. More specifically, the composition-temperature phase diagram has been constructed for the system (C)14(PO)12(EO)17/water, where C stands for methylene, PO for propylene oxide and EO for ethylene oxide. The model predicts thermotropic phase
transitions between the ordered hexagonal, lamellar, reverse hexagonal, and reverse cubic phases, as well as the disordered
phase. The thermotropic behavior is a result of the temperature dependence of water interaction with EO- and PO-segments.
The lyotropic effect (caused by changing the solvent concentration) on the formation of different structures has been found
weak. The structure in the ordered phases is described by analyzing the species volume fraction profiles and the end segment
and junction distributions. A “triple-layer” structure has been found for each of the ordered phases, with each layer rich
in C-, PO-, and EO-segments, respectively. The blocks forming the layers are not stretched. The dependence of the domain spacing
on polymer volume fraction and temperature is also considered.

Equilibrium structures of planar polyelectrolyte brushes formed by grafted chains carrying charges of opposite sign are examined
by employing mean-field lattice theory. Two brushes of different architecture are considered: one formed by grafted diblock
copolymers with oppositely charged blocks and the other being a mixed brush composed of oppositely charged homopolymers. The
systems display nontrivial intrinsically inhomogeneous brush structures originating from the chain connectivity and the electrostatic
interaction among the segments. In addition, a coexistence of stretched and coiled chains inside the brush is observed. The
influence of the charges of the blocks, the relative length of the oppositely charged blocks, and the ionic strength of the
solution on the brush inhomogeneity and structural differences between the two types of brushes are discussed.

We have constructed four types single-wall carbon nanotube intramolecular junctions (IMJs) of (5,5)/(8,0), (5,5)/(10,0), (5,5)/(9,0)A, and (5,5)/(9,0)B along a common axis, and calculated their electronic and transport properties using a tight binding-based Green's function
approach that is particular suitable for realistic calculation of electronic transport property in extended system. Our results
show that quasi-localized states can appear in the metal/semiconductor heterojunctions ((5,5)/(8,0) and (5,5)/(10,0)junctions),
which is desirable for the design of a quantum device; and the conductance of M-M IMJs is very sensitive to the connectivity
of the matching tubes, certain configurations of connection completely stop the flow of electron, while others permit the
transmission of the current through the interface. These results may have implications for the device assembly and manipulation
process of all carbon nanotubes-based microelectronic elements.

The electronic structure of the Co2-xZrSn Heusler alloys has been studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). XPS valence band spectra can be compared with
ab initio electronic structure calculations using the linearized muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) method. The calculated magnetic moments
per Co atom agree well with the moments obtained from experiment. The LMTO calculations also show the energy shifts of the
Co, Zr and Sn valence electron states towards the Fermi level when the concentration of vacancies increases in these alloys.

The electronic quasiparticle structure of a ferromagnetic local moment film is investigated within the framework of the s-f
model. For the special case of a single electron in an otherwise empty energy band being exchange coupled to a fully ordered
localised spin system the problem can be solved exactly and, for the spin- electron, some marked correlation effects can be found. We extend our model to incorporate the influence of the surface on
the electronic structure. Therefore we modify the hopping integrals in the vicinity of the surface. This leads to the existence
of surface states, both for the spin- and the spin- spectral density of states. The interplay between the modification of the hopping integrals and the existence of surface
states and correlation effects is discussed in detail.

The aim of this work is to find a simple analytic model to explain some principal aspects of the behavior of surface states
in correlated electron systems. We start from the analytic expression for the Green function of the semi-infinite tight binding
linear chain. This Green function in case of modification of the center of gravity of the first atom and the change in coupling
between the first and the second atom is evaluated as an exact analytic expression. Conditions for the existence and classification
of surface states are given. The spectral weight of surface states and the local density of states are evaluated. The method
is applied to a s.c. (100) surface of a local moment crystal. Conditions for the existence of surface states are derived and
their locations in the Brillouin zone are predicted. It is shown that it is possible to include correlation effects within
the framework of the discussed model. The comparison with former numerical results is performed.

First-principles electronic structure calculations of noble metals (NM=Pd, Pt)/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 systems are presented. It is found that: the NM adatoms do not prefer to stay at the atop or the bridge sites of the cations
(Ce and Zr), but prefer to be adsorbed at or around the anion sites. The most preferable adsorption sites for both the Pd
and Pt adatoms are the O-bridge sites neighboring the Zr dopant. The Pt adatom show much stronger interaction with the Ce0.75Zr0.25O2(111) surface than does the Pd adatom. The interactions of the NM/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2(111) interfaces are stronger than those of the corresponding NM/ceria(111) interfaces. There are some metal induced gap states
(MIGS) appeared in the gaps of the NM/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2(111) interfaces, which are important to catalytic properties of the NM/Ce0.75Zr0.25O2(111) catalysts. 相似文献

A variational theory is proposed to study the surface states of electrons in a semi-infinite ternary mixed crystal, by taking
the effect of electron-surface optical (SO) phonon interaction into account. The energy and the wave function of the electronic
surface-states are calculated. The numerical results of the energies of the surface states of the polarons and the self-trapping
energies are obtained as functions of the composition x and surface potential V0 for several ternary mixed crystal materials. The results show that the electron-phonon interaction lowers the surface-state
levels with the energies from several to scores of meV. It is also found that the self-trapping energy of the surface polaron
has a minimum at some middle value of the composition x. It is indicated that the electron-phonon coupling effect can not be neglected.

A novel three-dimensional (3-D) tomography software has been developed for spherical tokamak (ST) plasmas with thin central
coils. It enables us to measure whole 3-D annular profiles of ST plasma emissivity (line spectrum etc.) using limited number
of detectors located on a sphere outside of its separatrix. The numbers and positions of detectors have been optimized for
STs that contain low-n toroidal modes from n = 1 to 5. Mathematical method allowing for the removal of the thin central coil from the region of reconstruction and to
reconstruct STs with single and double axes are also discussed. The shadow effect of center coil region was found to limit
the reconstruction accuracy, indicating that the low-aspect ratio torus (ST) is essential to this new 3-D tomography diagnostics.

An inversion method for ion Doppler shift of spectrum lines was developed for plasma velocity measurements. By reducing the
problem to the vectorial Radon transform, the characteristics of plasma ion velocity distribution such as vector potential/vorticity
and velocity components were computed in two-dimensional space. Computer simulation of the reconstruction of different vector
potential (vector field) models gives evidence that the reconstruction errors are acceptable, and the method can surely be
used for real experimental data.
