Abstract

A procedure to solve the coherent potential approximation (CPA) equation for energy and k-dependent self-energies is described. As illustrative example calculations for the \( {\left( {SN} \right)_x} - {\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {SN} \\ H \end{array}} \right)_x} \) two-component mixed polymer are presented. Spikes and dips in the density of states of the mixed system are found already for 3 mol. per cent hydrogen concentration.

The resolvent method developed previously for the ab initio self-consistent field linear-combination of atomic-orbitals (SCF LCAO) treatment of a cluster of impurities embedded in a one-dimensional periodic polymer is extended for the ab initio SCF LCAO computation of the surface and chemisorption states of a three-dimensional semi-infinite crystal. The way of solving the matrix equations which are derived is outlined.
