Journal ArticleDOI
Vibrational frequencies and structural properties of transition metals via total-energy calculations
TL;DR: The vibrational frequencies of selected normal modes can be obtained from first principles with use of frozen phonon calculations which involve the precise evaluation of crystal total energy as a function of lattice displacement as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total-energy calculations for Si with a first-principles linear-combination-of-atomic-orbitals method
TL;DR: In this article, the total energy for Si with various lattice distortions has been calculated using a first-principles linear-combination-of-atomic-orbitals method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electronic origin of the intermediate phase of NiTi
TL;DR: A nesting feature in the Fermi surface of ordered, equiatomic NiTi is reported, and related to observed premartensitic phenomena.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anomalous lattice dynamics of fcc lanthanum.
TL;DR: First-principles pseudopotential band-structure calculations were performed for fcc La and revealed a small but sharp nesting feature of the Fermi surface, which helps to explain the unusual negative thermal expansion, the dramatic increase of the superconducting transition temperature, and the observed structural transition near 50 kbar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibrational frequencies via frozen phonons
TL;DR: In this article, a linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) method was used to calculate the total ground state energy for crystals of Si, Nb and Mo involving lattice distortions.
