Analytical Approach to Phonon Calculations in the SCC-DFTB Framework

Bacic, V.; Heine, T.; Kuc, A. B.

Detailed derivation of the analytical, reciprocal-space approach of Hessian calculation within the self- consistent-charge density functional based tight-binding framework (SCC-DFTB) is presented. This ap- proach provides an accurate and efficient way for obtaining the SCC-DFTB Hessian of periodic systems. Its superiority with respect to the traditional numerical force differentiation method is demonstrated for doped graphene, graphene nanoribbons, boron-nitride nanotubes, bulk zinc-oxide and other systems.
