In crystalline materials, due to the orbital-density-dependent nature of the functionals, minimization of the total energy to a ground state provides a set of minimizing variational orbitals that are localized, and thus break the periodicity of the underlying lattice. Despite this, we show that Bloch symmetry can be preserved and it is possible to describe the electronic states with a band-structure picture, thanks to the Wannier-like character of the variational orbitals. We also present a method to unfold and interpolate the electronic bands from supercell (Gamma-point) calculations, which enables us to calculate full band structures with Koopmans-compliant functionals. The results obtained for a set of benchmark semiconductors and insulators show a very good agreement with state-of-the-art many-body perturbation theory and experiments, underscoring the reliability of these spectral functionals in predicting band structures.</dc:description> <dc:identifier>https://archive.materialscloud.org/record/2021.193</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>doi:10.24435/materialscloud:ee-vg</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>mcid:2021.193</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>oai:materialscloud.org:1017</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>Materials Cloud</dc:publisher> <dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights> <dc:rights>Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode</dc:rights> <dc:subject>DFT</dc:subject> <dc:subject>photoemission spectra</dc:subject> <dc:subject>orbital-density-dependent</dc:subject> <dc:subject>Koopmans functionals</dc:subject> <dc:subject>electronic bands</dc:subject> <dc:subject>electronic structure</dc:subject> <dc:subject>MARVEL/OSP</dc:subject> <dc:title>Bloch's theorem in orbital-density-dependent functionals: band structures from Koopmans spectral functionals</dc:title> <dc:type>Dataset</dc:type> </oai_dc:dc>
