Abstract

ABSTRACTWe present first-principles calculations of the electronic structure of Nb grain boundaries. These are the first such calculations for a bcc metal using the real-space multiple-scattering theory (RSMST). Local densities of states near a Σ5 twist grain boundary are compared to those for bulk Nb.
