Theoretical Modeling Of Metallic Compounds With Versatile Properties By Combining First-Principles Calculations And Global Structure Prediction Algorithms, Jinseon Park
Doctoral Dissertations
Improving the target properties of existing materials or finding new materials with enhanced functionality for practical applications is at the heart of the materials research. In this respect, the first-principles approaches, which have been successfully integrated into modern high- performance computers, have become an indispensable part of the materials research, providing a better understanding of existing materials and guidance on the design of new materials. Using state-of-the-art computational/theoretical approaches that couple global structure prediction with ab initio density functional theory calculations, we investigate structural and electronic properties of CsxO [cesium oxides], Li1+xMn2O4 [lithium …
