SnO: GW band gap of a van der Waals bonded system — •Kirsten Govaerts1, Rolando Saniz2, Bart Partoens2, and Dirk Lamoen11EMAT, University of Antwerp, Groenenborgerlaan 171, 2020 Antwerpen, Belgium — 2CMT group, Department of Physics, University of Antwerp, Groenenborgerlaan 171, 2020 Antwerpen, Belgium

In this work we have investigated the structural and electronic properties of SnO, which is built up by layers kept together by van der Waals (vdW) forces. The combination of a vdW functional (within DFT) and GW calculations leads to accurate values for the c/a ratio and the fundamental band gap. A comparison is made between three starting points for the GW calculation: a regular PBE calculation, one with the vdW effect included, and a hybrid functional calculation. The difference between different levels of self-consistency is also investigated.
