Exact models and numerics for the relativistic single-site scattering problem — •Matthias Geilhufe1, Steven Achilles2, Markus Arthur Koebis3, Martin Arnold3, Ingrid Mertig2, 1, Wolfram Hergert2, and Arthur Ernst4,11Max-Planck-Institut für Mikrostrukturphysik, Halle, Germany — 2Institut für Physik, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Halle, Germany — 3Institut für Mathematik, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Halle, Germany — 4Wilhelm-Ostwald-Institut für Physikalishe und Theoretishe Chemie, Universität Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany

The Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green function method (KKR) based on density functional theory is a powerful tool for electronic structure calculations. For the discussion of spin-orbit coupling driven phenomena e.g. on surfaces a fully-relativistic treatment within the full-potential approximation [1] is necessary. The numerical solution of the fully relativistic single-site scattering will be discussed for the Coulomb and the Mathieu potential. In this context, the solution of the fully-relativistic full-potential single-site scattering problem using integral equations is compared with a direct solution of the differential equations via various methods. The advantages and disadvantages of the used methods will be discussed and proposals for accurate and efficient methods will be given.
