Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A computational scheme is described which simplifies many Green's-function calculations of energy-dependent quantities such as the density of states through a novel use of analytic properties. Calculations are performed at complex energies well above the real axis where the quantities of interest are slowly varying. Physical results are then obtained by analytically continuing Green's-function matrix elements back to real energies using an efficient numerical procedure based on Taylor-series expansions. The approach is simple, versatile, and particularly well suited for evaluating the complicated Brillouin-zone integrals which often appear in Green's-function calculations. In recent coherent-potential-approximation (CPA) calculations for Hg1-xCdxTe, the use of this technique cut the required computer time by about a factor of 3. © 1984 The American Physical Society.
