Abstract

The direct calculation of elastic and piezoelectric tensors utilizing density-functional perturbation theory has been extended to encompass generalized-gradient-approximation functionals. Expressions for the first- and second-order exchange-correlation potentials and energies are found to have structures particular to the strain perturbation.
