Since the early work of Tersoff and Hamann on the theory of the scanning tunneling microscope (STM), many theoretical approaches have been developed in order to gain further physical insight into the real space image that this technique provides. In this Paper, the STM image of Carbon nanotubes (CNT's) was calculated through the theoretical study. The optimized structure of CNT's was simulated using Brenner's hydrocarbon potential. The structure of simulation is (5. 5) armchair CNT and (10. 0) zigzag CNT. Also we have used that the extended Huckel tight binding (EHTB) theory already provides a fairly good qualitative description of the main processes that control the final contrast in the STM image. we found that the shape of the calculated images is hardly dependent on the exact electronic charge distribution at the surface. The STM images are not too sensitive to the precise electronic structure but, rather, they reflect its qualitative features. As a result of the simulation, The STM images of CNT's and the electronic density distribution were investigated. It found that the EHTB theory is appropriate for STM image calculation and that the STM images are in agreement with the result of Experiment.

The electronic structures of α- and β-gold selenides are studied. α- and β-AuSe are known as mixed valence compounds having linear (AuSe2, Au+) and square-planar (AuSe4, Au3+) units in their structure simultaneously. Our EHTB calculations, however, show that the oxidation states of Au in α- and β-AuSe are both close to +1. This is because the frontier orbitals are largely made up of Se p-orbitals and Au d-orbitals that lie well below the Fermi level. Our results are consistent with the recent X-ray absorption spectroscopy study on AuSe which show that all Au in the compound exhibit a monovalent state independent of their chemical environments.

결정 분자 궤도함수[EHTB]를 계산할 수 있는 VAX 컴퓨터용 EHMACC와 EHPC 프로그램을, 마이크로-소프트 포트란을 이용하는 PC로 계산할 수 있도록 변환하였다. 이 프로그램을 이용하여 perovskit 구조의 $LaNiO_3$ 단위세포와 ($2{\times}2{\times}1$)으로 확장된 구조에 대한 띠 구조를 계산한 결과, ${\Gamma}{\rightarrow}H,\;H{\rightarrow}N$ 및 $N{\rightarrow}{\Gamma}$ 방향(2차원)에서는 bend gap이 0.35eV인 반도체의 성질을 나타내고, ${\Gamma}{\rightarrow}P$와 $P{\rightarrow}N$ 방향(3차원)에서는 금속성의 성질을 나타내었다. 또 이들 결정에 관한 DOS와 COOP를 고찰한바, $LaNiO_3$에서 산소원자의 DOS는 니켈원자의 결함보다는 산소원자의 위치에 영향을 받아 서로 다른 종류의 산소원자로 존재할수 있음을 알았다.
