Basis set in the ๐๐ calculation โ
Representation of one-particle wave functions โ
The wave functions are expands by two types of basis set as follows:
where is atomic LMTO basis and is interstitial plane wave to comprised interstitial area.
Detail of โ
The is generated from bloch sum of atomic orbital to satisfy the bloch symmetry on basis functions, i.e.:
The radial part of atomic orbital are constructed from , , and based on argumentation of Smooth Henkel functions.
The index of atom is omitted for simplify. Each has 2 or 3 reference energy of . is the channel orbital of solution on radial Scrhรถdinger equation at energy , is energy derivative of , is local orbital which is the also solution on radial Scrhรถdinger equation but the given energy is far from . The energy of is set as the center of gravity for occupied states. This means that this basis set is not fixed in the QSGW cycle.
?? About radial equation??
- Is LDA used?
- In the in radial equation obtained from self-consistent calculation?
- What is the boundary conditions of radial equation.
- is not the solution of radial equation, the does not satisfy the some boundary conditions, for example
- how to set the reference energy in the case of ?
Detail of โ
The interstitial plane wave is expressed as follows:
Since the hollow out the MT region, these basis have overlap matrix between them, i.e.:
where,
Formula of inner product โ
This is for checking the orthonormality of wave function, but it is good for better understanding.
The cross term are vanished.
