Tight-Binding parameters for Silver


Silver (Ag)
Atomic Number 47
Atomic Weight 107.870
Room Temperature Structure fcc (A1)
Experimental Lattice Constant 7.73 Bohr
Calculated Lattice Constant 7.58 Bohr
Experimental Bulk Modulus 101 GPa
Calculated Bulk Modulus 142 GPa

The tight-binding parameters were fit to first-principles Augmented Plane Wave (APW) results over the following ranges:

Structure Minimum Range Lattice Constant (Bohr) Maximum Range Lattice Constant (Bohr)
fcc (A1)  7.20   7.80 
bcc (A2)  5.80   6.20 
Reference Phys. Rev. B 54, 4519-30 (1996)

Use of the parameters outside of these ranges may result in unphysical behavior.
