We have carefully and systematically test the convergence of density-functional-theory (DFT) calculations in the local-density approximation or generalized-gradient approximation with a plane-wave basis set and ultra-soft pseudopotentials or the projector-augmented wave method as implemented in Vienna ab-initio simulation package. The DFT calculation shows that the work function of the Ba adsorbed onto a p(2times2) W(001) substrate is dramatically lowered by about 2.2 eV, provided that the fourfold hollow sites are occupied. With this approach, one can investigate more complex adsorbates onto the cathode surface of different materials.","PeriodicalId":113971,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Vacuum Electronics Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131841548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Devices known as FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) operate at voltages of 35 kV, 110 kV and above. At such high voltage levels, the use of vacuum switch devices becomes competitive with semiconductor devices. The fact is that vacuum devices provide high voltage levels (100 kV and above), in comparison with semiconductor devices (6-7 kV). For use in high-voltage converters consecutive connection of many semiconductor devices with control circuitry is necessary. There are also other advantages of vacuum devices: high speed switching, stability of influence of electromagnetic interferences and heating.
