Band structure of WSe2

Posted on : September 07, 2016 (Wed) 18:29:39

by DUONG, DINH LOC

Dear Akai-KKR admins,

I have try to calculate the band structure of bulk WSe2 but I failed to see the band gap of WSe2.

Below is my input file.

Is there any visualization program to see the input structure of Akai-kkr? I think it will be very useful to check it. I am afraid that the structure I put in can be wrong.

Thank you for all your help in advance.

With best wishes,
Loc Duong

Hello Loc Duong,

It may be better to insert some empty spheres (Z = 0) to the vacuum region. But not certain, because I have never tried to calculate the slab model.

Hi Hitoshi,

Thank you so much for your help. Your input is working and the band gap is generated. I will try further to get better band structure.

In addition, I try to calculate monolayer WSe2 by removing one layer in the input (off course I should increase the vacuum size along z direction). However, I can not get a proper the band structure of monolayer.

Is it possible to use the package for slab model? Could you give me some hints to improve the data with slab model (e.g. mono WSe2)?

Thank you all your help again.

With best wishes,
Loc Duong

I make one more test with Si and it seems the band structure is quite good.

I have change the exchange-correlation of GaAs from mjw to gga91 and the band gap appears.

I think the result is strongly dependent on the exchange-correlation.

Still, I can not solve the issue with WSe2 even I have used the gga91 for band gap estimation.

Could you give me some hints on it?

With best wishes,

I have a test with the gaas example provided in the code. Still I can not get the band gap of gaas.

Could you give me some hints to solve this problem.
