| Research Abstract |
We proposed a procedure of the first principles thermodynamic calculation with considering long-range interactions. First we developed source codes for calculating the long-range interaction and applied the procedure to a point-charge model of the chalcopyrite structure. Then, we applied the procedure to order-disorder behavior on cation sites in MgAl_2O_4 spinel. We found that it is essential to consider the long-range interactions accurately in order to predict the order-disorder behavior accurately in multicomponent system with configurations of heterovalent ions. In addition, we proposed a procedure for evaluating the accuracy of the cluster expansion method based on the structure selection. Using the procedure, the accuracy of the cluster expansion method for a wide range of structures is improved.
