Cyclometalled Ir(III) compounds are the preferred choice as organic emitters in Organic Light Emitting Diodes. In practice, the presence of the transition metals surrounded by carefully designed ligands allows the fine tuning of the emission frequency as well as a good efficiency of the device. To support the development of new compounds the experimental measurements are generally compared with ab-initio calculation of the absorption and emission spectra. The standard approach for these calculations is TDDFT with hybrid exchange and correlation functional like the B3LYP. Due to the size of these compounds the application of more complex quantum chemistry approaches can be challenging. In this work we used Many Body Perturbation Theory approaches (in particular the GW approximation with the Bethe-Salpeter equation) implemented in gaussian basis sets, to calculate the quasiparticle properties and the adsorption spectra of six cyclometalled Ir(III) complexes going behind TDDFT. In the presented results we compared standard TDDFT simulation with BSE calculations performed on top on perturbative G 0 W 0 and accounting for eigenvalue self consistency. Moreover, in order to investigate in detail the effect of the DFT starting point, we concentrate on Ir(ppy) 3 performing GW-BSE simulations starting from different DFT exchange and correlation potentials.

Doping is one of the most common strategies for improving the photocatalytic and solar energy conversion properties of TiO$_2$, hence an accurate theoretical description of the electronic and optical properties of doped TiO$_2$ is of both scientific
and practical interest. In this work we use many-body perturbation theory techniques to investigate two typical n-type dopants, Niobium and Hydrogen, in TiO$_2$ rutile. Using the GW approximation to determine band edges and defect energy levels, and the Bethe Salpeter equation for the calculation of the absorption spectra, we find that the defect energy levels form non-dispersive bands %associated with localized states lying $simeq 2.2 eV$ above the top of the corresponding valence bands ($simeq 0.9 eV$ below the conduction bands of the {it pristine} material). The defect states are also responsible for the appearance of low energy absorption peaks that enhance the solar spectrum absorption of rutile. The spatial distributions of the excitonic wavefunctions associated with these low energy excitations are very different for the two dopants, suggesting a larger mobility of photoexcited electrons in Nb-TiO$_2$.
We present results of a study of small stoichiometric $Cd_{n}Te_{n}$ ($1{leq}n{leq}6$) clusters and few medium sized non-stoichiometric $Cd_{m}Te_{n}$ [($m,n= 13, 16, 19$); ($m{ eq}n$)] clusters using the Density Functional formalism and projector au
gmented wave method within the generalized gradient approximation. Structural properties {it viz.} geometry, bond length, symmetry and electronic properties like HOMO-LUMO gap, binding energy, ionization potential and nature of bonding {it etc.} have been analyzed. Medium sized non-stoichiometric clusters were considered as fragments of the bulk with T{$_{d}$} symmetry. It was observed that upon relaxation, the symmetry changes for the Cd rich clusters whereas the Te rich clusters retain their symmetry. The Cd rich clusters develop a HOMO-LUMO gap due to relaxation whereas there is no change in the HOMO-LUMO gap of the Te rich clusters. Thus, the symmetry of a cluster seems to be an important factor in determining the HOMO-LUMO gap.
We present ab-initio calculations of the excited state properties of liquid water in the framework of Many-Body Greens function formalism. Snapshots taken from molecular dynamics simulations are used as input geometries to calculate electronic and op
tical spectra, and the results are averaged over the different configurations. The optical absorption spectra with the inclusion of excitonic effects are calculated by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation. These calculations are made possible by exploiting the insensitivity of screening effects to a particular configuration. The resulting spectra are strongly modified by many-body effects, both concerning peak energies and lineshapes, and are in good agreement with experiments.
We report ab initio calculations of the electronic band structure, the corresponding optical spectra, and the phonon dispersion relations of trigonal alpha-HgS (cinnabar). The calculated dielectric functions are compared with unpublished optical meas
urements by Zallen and coworkers. The phonon dispersion relations are used to calculate the temperature and isotopic mass dependence of the specific heat which has been compared with experimental data obtained on samples with the natural isotope abundances of the elements Hg and S (natural minerals and vapor phase grown samples) and on samples prepared from isotope enriched elements by vapor phase transport. Comparison of the calculated vibrational frequencies with Raman and ir data is also presented. Contrary to the case of cubic beta-HgS (metacinnabar), the spin-orbit splitting of the top valence bands at the Gamma-point of the Brillouin zone (Delta_0) is positive, because of a smaller admixture of 5d core electrons of Hg. Calculations of the lattice parameters, and the pressure dependence of Delta_0 and the corresponding direct gap E_0~2eV are also presented. The lowest absorption edge is confirmed to be indirect.
A degenerate perturbation $kcdot p$ approach for effective mass calculations is implemented in the all-electron density functional theory (DFT) package WIEN2k. The accuracy is tested on major group IVA, IIIA-VA, and IIB-VIA semiconductor materials. T
hen, the effective mass in graphene and CuI with defects is presented as illustrative applications. For states with significant Cu-d character additional local orbitals with higher principal quantum numbers (more radial nodes) have to be added to the basis set in order to converge the results of the perturbation theory. Caveats related to a difference between velocity and momentum matrix elements are discussed in the context of application of the method to non-local potentials, such as Hartree-Fock/DFT hybrid functionals and DFT+U.
