Abstract

Electronic structures of SrTiO3 (001) surfaces are calculated by the use of self-consistent pseudopotential method with plane-wave basis. The effect of surface defects, which are introduced by removing a surface oxygen in a 1×1 or a 2 × 2 cell, are studied in detail. Levels induced by the defect appear in the bulk band-gap region. The wave funciton of the defect level is localized around surface Ti ion, forming the Ti(3d)-O vacancy complex.
