In this paper, the geometric and electronic structure of MoS2 monolayer (ML) adsorbed on SiO2 (0001) surface were studied by using density functional theory calculations. The calculated interfacial binding energy shows that the MoS2/SiO2 hybrid system is stable. MoS2 ML is bound to the SiO2 surface with a big interlayer spacing and no covalent bonds form at the interface. The study of the density of states and the charge transfer indicates that the interaction between MoS2 ML and the SiO2 substrate is very weak. As a result, the electronic properties of MoS2 ML are almost not affected by the SiO2 substrate. This work will be beneficial to the design of MoS2 ML-based devices where a substrate is needed.

The enthalpy of four polymorphs of CaN has been scrutinized at 0 and 100 GPa using density functional theory calculations. It is shown that structures of diamagnetic calcium diazenide (Ca2N2) are preferred over the cubic ferromagnetic polymorph (CaN) postulated before, both at 0 and 100 GPa.

AbstractWe present a tensor-structured algorithm for efficient large-scale density functional theory (DFT) calculations by constructing a Tucker tensor basis that is adapted to the Kohn–Sham Hamiltonian and localized in real-space. The proposed approach uses an additive separable approximation to the Kohn–Sham Hamiltonian and an L1 localization technique to generate the 1-D localized functions that constitute the Tucker tensor basis. Numerical results show that the resulting Tucker tensor basis exhibits exponential convergence in the ground-state energy with increasing Tucker rank. Further, the proposed tensor-structured algorithm demonstrated sub-quadratic scaling with system-size for both systems with and without a gap, and involving many thousands of atoms. This reduced-order scaling has also resulted in the proposed approach outperforming plane-wave DFT implementation for systems beyond 2000 electrons.
