Electronic Structure and Lattice Relaxation Related to Fe in Mgo
  The electronic structure of Fe impurity in MgO was calculated by the linear muffin-tin orbital--full-potential method within the conventional local-density approximation (LDA) and making use of the LDA+$U$ formalism. The importance of introducing different potentials, depending on the screened Coulomb integral $U$, is emphasized for obtaining a physically reasonable ground state of the Fe$^{2+}$ ion configuration. The symmetry lowering of the ion electrostatic field leads to the observed Jahn--Teller effect; related ligand relaxation confined to tetragonal symmetry has been optimized based on the full-potential total energy results. The electronic structure of the Fe$^{3+}$ ion is also calculated and compared with that of Fe$^{2+}$.
