Title
Algorithms for the evolution of electronic properties in nanocrystals
Abstract
We illustrate recent progress in developing algorithms for solving the Kohn–Sham problem. Key ingredients of our algorithm include pseudopotentials implemented on a real space grid and the use of damped-Chebyshev polynomial filtered subspace iteration. This procedure allows one to predict electronic properties for many materials across the nano-regime, i.e. from atoms to nanocrystals of sufficient size to replicate bulk properties. We will illustrate this method for large silicon quantum dots.
