Effect of the exchange-correlation energy and temperature on the generalized phase diagram of the 4d transition metals
No full textVery recently, we have used first-principles methods to calculate the zero-temperature phase diagram of all the 4d transition metals up to P 500GPa. Even though we used a very accurate implementation of density functional theory and the accurate exchange-correlation functional of Wu and Cohen, we found that solid-solid transition pressures were underestimated by 10GPa with respect to room-temperature measurements. Here, we report the dependence of the transition pressures on the choice of the exchange-correlation functional. We also perform first-principles calculations of the harmonic phonon frequencies of molybdenum and zirconium in different crystalline structures in order to extend the phase diagram to non-zero temperatures. We use the results to discuss the reasons for the earlier disagreements between calculated and experimental transition pressures

“Not a thing was saved” -- Lieutenant H. D. McLellan
Letter from Lieutenant H.D. McLellan to “Binnie” McLellan, January 1862.
Union Lieutenant H.D. McLellan wrote home about the plundering of a Confederate commodore’s estate in Virginia, reporting that the commodore’s “family left in a hurry,” leaving a “large amount of Plate, the furniture of the best kind, ladies dresses of rich materials,” and “the Commodore’s uniforms,” to the discretion of the Union soldiers who made sure that “Not a thing was saved.” While plundering has been depicted as an example of northern aggression, this letter suggests pillaging may have had multiple purposes, done out of need for supplies and shelter as well as perhaps representing greed, and anger toward southern wealth and excess. McLellan also sheds light on southern civilians taking advantage of the chaos, as a piano was taken by a neighbor from the estate of the Confederate commodore.

Bulk and surface energetics of crystalline lithium hydride: Benchmarks from quantum Monte Carlo and quantum chemistry
No full textWe show how accurate benchmark values of the surface formation energy of crystalline lithium hydride can be computed by the complementary techniques of quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) and wave-function-based molecular quantum chemistry. To demonstrate the high accuracy of the QMC techniques, we present a detailed study of the energetics of the bulk LiH crystal, using both pseudopotential and all-electron approaches. We show that the equilibrium lattice parameter agrees with experiment to within 0.03%, which is around the experimental uncertainty, and the cohesive energy agrees to within around 10 meV/f.u. QMC in periodic slab geometry is used to compute the formation energy of the LiH (001) surface, and we show that the value can be accurately converged with respect to slab thickness and other technical parameters. The quantum chemistry calculations build on the recently developed hierarchical scheme for computing the correlation energy of a crystal to high precision. We show that the hierarchical scheme allows the accurate calculation of the surface formation energy, and we present results that are well converged with respect to basis set and with respect to the level of correlation treatment. The QMC and hierarchical results for the surface formation energy agree to within about 1%
Benchmarking DFT surface energies with quantum Monte Carlo
No full textPrevious work has demonstrated that for many materials, surface energies calculated by density functional theory (DFT) methods depend significantly on the exchange-correlation (xc) functional used. This could pose significant problems when using DFT for predicting structures of nanocrystals both in vacuum and on substrates. Here, we present initial results from a systematic study of , for a series of ionic materials using the VASP code and its projector augmented wave implementation of DFT. Calculations on LiH and MgO presented here were performed using four of the functionals available in VASP (LDA, PW91, PBE and RPBE) along with the recent Wu-Cohen modification of PBE. The results we present show that there is indeed a significant variation in due to differing functionals. Furthermore, we are able to ascertain which functionals gave the most accurate results by performing calculations of for LiH using diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods that are generally accepted to be significantly more accurate, albeit more expensive, in calculating these quantities
