Based on ab initio software packages using nonorthogonal localized orbitals, we develop a general scheme of calculating response functions. We test the performance of this method by calculating nonlinear optical responses of materials, like the shift current conductivity of monolayer WS2, and achieve good agreement with previous calculations. This method bears many similarities to Wannier interpolation, which requires a challenging optimization of Wannier functions due to the conflicting requirements of orthogonality and localization. Although computationally heavier compared to Wannier interpolation, our procedure avoids the construction of Wannier functions and thus enables automated high throughput calculations of linear and nonlinear responses related to electrical, magnetic and optical material properties.

Based on the exact muffin-tin orbitals (EMTOs), we developed a first-principles method to calculate the current operators and investigated the anomalous Hall effect in bcc Fe as an example, with which we successfully separated the skew scattering con
tribution from the side jump and intrinsic contributions by fitting the scaling law with the introduction of sparse impurities. By investigating the temperature dependence of the anomalous Hall effect in bulk Fe, we predicted a fluctuated anomalous Hall angle as a function of temperature when considering only phonons, which, in the future, can be measured in experiments by suppressing magnon excitation, e.g., by applying a high external magnetic field.
A novel approach has been developed to calculate the temperature dependence of the optical response of a semiconductor. The dielectric function is averaged over several thermally perturbed configurations that are extracted from molecular dynamic simu
lations. The calculated temperature dependence of the imaginary part of the dielectric function of GaAs is presented in the range from 0 to 700 K. This approach that explicitly takes into account lattice vibrations describes well the observed thermally-induced energy shifts and broadening of the dielectric function.
We calculate the density of states (DOS) and the Mulliken population of the diamond and the co-doped diamonds with different concentrations of lithium (Li) and phosphorus (P) by the method of the density functional theory, and analyze the bonding sit
uations of the Li-P co-doped diamond thin films and the impacts of the Li-P co-doping on the diamond conductivities. The results show that the Li-P atoms can promote the split of the diamond energy band near the Fermi level, and improve the electron conductivities of the Li-P co-doped diamond thin films, or even make the Li-P co-doped diamond from semiconductor to conductor. The effect of Li-P co-doping concentration on the orbital charge distributions, bond lengths and bond populations is analyzed. The Li atom may promote the split of the energy band near the Fermi level as well as may favorably regulate the diamond lattice distortion and expansion caused by the P atom.
The electronic transport behaviour of materials determines their suitability for technological applications. We develop an efficient method for calculating carrier scattering rates of solid-state semiconductors and insulators from first principles in
puts. The present method extends existing polar and non-polar electron-phonon coupling, ionized impurity, and piezoelectric scattering mechanisms formulated for isotropic band structures to support highly anisotropic materials. We test the formalism by calculating the electronic transport properties of 16 semiconductors and comparing the results against experimental measurements. The present work is amenable for use in high-throughput computational workflows and enables accurate screening of carrier mobilities, lifetimes, and thermoelectric power.
In this work we present a new method for the calculation of the electrostrictive properties of materials using density functional theory. The method relies on the thermodynamical equivalence, in a dielectric, of the quadratic mechanical responses (st
ress or strain) to applied electric stimulus (electric or polarisation fields) to the strain or stress dependence of its dielectric susceptibility or stiffness tensors. Comparing with current finite-field methodologies for the calculation of electrostriction, we demonstrate that our presented methodology offers significant advantages of efficiency, robustness, and ease of use. These advantages render tractable the highthroughput theoretical investigation into the largely unknown electrostrictive properties of materials.
