Description |
In this paper, utilization of density functional theory (DFT) to obtain mechanical, electrical and thermal properties of crystalline materials are reviewed. DFT has resulted as an efficient tool for predicting ground states of many body systems thus aiding in resolving dispersion spectrums of complex atomic arrangements where solution by traditional Schr𝒐̇dinger (SH) equation is infeasible. Great success has been reported by previous researchers on utilizing DFT for functional property predictions of crystalline solids.
