Engineering Magnetic Anisotropy of Rhenium Atom in Nitrogenized Divacancy of Graphene
The effects of charging on the magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) of rhenium atom in nitrogenized-divacancy graphene (Re@NDV) are investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. High-stability and large MAE of 71.2 meV are found in Re@NDV.

Reproducibility in density functional theory calculations of solids [PDF]
A comparison of DFT methods Density functional theory (DFT) is now routinely used for simulating material properties. Many software packages are available, which makes it challenging to know which are the best to use for a specific calculation. Lejaeghere et al. compared the

Generalized Stacking Fault Energies of Aluminum Alloys–Density Functional Theory Calculations
Generalized stacking fault energies of aluminum alloys were calculated using density functional theory. Stacking fault energy of aluminum alloys was correlated with the d-electrons number of transition metal alloying elements. The tendency to twinning is

Spectral density functionals for electronic structure calculations [PDF]
We introduce a spectral density functional theory which can be used to compute energetics and spectra of real strongly--correlated materials using methods, algorithms and computer programs of the electronic structure theory of solids. The approach considers the total free energy of a system as a functional of a local electronic Green function which is ...

Illuminating mechanochemical reactions by combining real-time fluorescence emission monitoring and periodic time-dependent density-functional calculations [PDF]
We provide a proof-of-principle demonstration of the first dual-spectroscopic method for direct and real-time observation of mechanochemical reactions by ball milling, supported by high-level molecular and periodic density-functional theory (DFT ...

Density functional theory calculations using the finite element method; pp. 155–178 [PDF]
We propose a method to solve KohnâSham equations and to calculate electronic states, total energy, and material properties of non-crystalline, non-periodic structures with l-dependent fully non-local real-space ab initio pseudopotentials using finite ...
