| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed the KKRnano program package, where the full potential screened Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green’s function method is optimized by a massively parallel linear scaling (order-N) all electron algorithm. The KKR nano program package was optimized on supercomputer K and Blue gene/Q in Juelich research center. We also presented a new method to calculate “local energies” of all atoms. This is based on the partitioning of the whole space into Voronoi cells and allows to calculate the energetic contribution of each atomic cell to the total energy of the supercell.
Our local energy analysis method was applied to high entropy alloys, thermoelectric materials, photovoltaic cells, and permanent magnets. We theoretically clarified the influence of the local environmental effect on physical properties in these materials, such as electronic structure and magnetic properties.
