Can Disorder Alone Destroy the e"(g) Hole Pockets of NaxCoO2? A Wannier Function Based First-Principals Method for Disordered Systems

Journal Article Berlijn T. ; Ku W. ; Volja, D. - Physical Review Letters

We investigate from first principles the proposed destruction of the controversial e{prime}{sub g} pockets in the Fermi surface of Na{sub x}CoO{sub 2} due to Na disorder, by calculating its k-dependent configuration-averaged spectral function A(k,{omega}). To this end, a Wannier function-based method is developed that treats the effects of disorder beyond the mean field. Remarkable spectral broadenings of order {approx}1 eV are found for the oxygen orbitals, possibly explaining their absence in the experiments. In contradiction with the current claim, however, the e{prime}{sub g} pockets remain almost perfectly coherent. The developed method is expected to also generate exciting opportunities in themore »« less

First-Principles Prediction of Vacancy Order-Disorder and Intercalation Battery Voltages in Li{sub {ital x}} CoO{sub 2}

Journal Article Wolverton, C. ; Zunger, A. - Physical Review Letters

We present a first-principles technique for predicting the ordered vacancy ground states, intercalation voltage profiles, and voltage-temperature phase diagrams of Li intercalation battery electrodes. Application to the Li{sub x}CoO {sub 2} system yields correctly the observed ordered vacancy phases. We further predict the existence of additional ordered phases, their thermodynamic stability ranges, and their intercalation voltages in Li{sub x}CoO {sub 2}/Li battery cells. Our calculations provide insight into the remarkable electronic stability of this system with respect to Li removal: A rehybridization of the Co-O orbitals acts to restore charge to the Co site ({open_quotes}self-regulating response{close_quotes}), thereby minimizing the effectmore »« less

Three-Dimensional Magnetic Interactions in Na _xCoO ₂: First-Principles Calculations and Analysis of Exchange Mechanisms

Journal Article Johannes, M. D. ; Mazin, I. I. ; Singh, David J - Physical Review B

The puzzle of three-dimensional magnetic interactions in the structurally two-dimensional layered-oxide Na{sub x}CoO{sub 2} is addressed using first-principles calculations and an analysis of the exchange mechanisms. The calculations agree with recent neutron results, favoring the antiferromagnetic stacking of ferromagnetic planes. The superexchange via direct O-O hopping and through intermediate Na sp{sup 2} hybrids couples each Co to its nearest and six next-nearest interplanar neighbors via equivalent paths. The individual exchange constants are rather two-dimensional, like the lattice itself, but due to multiple c-axis exchange paths, the magnetism becomes effectively three-dimensional.
