Band Calculations on Ferroelectric and Piezoelectric Solids.

Abstract

Band calculations were completed on lithium niobate, boron nitride, and sodium fluoride. The results of these calculations will be used to calculate other electronic properties of these materials. Further developments have been made on the Operator Recursion (OR) method. To verify the validity of the OR method it was applied to the anharmonic oscillator and to single particle motion in one dimensional asymmetric periodic lattices. The extension of the OR method to three dimensions is proceeding along the lines of the second quantized and Hartree-Fock formalisms. The OR method will then be applied to ferroelectric systems.
