Abstract
The electron density distribution in solid solutions between the high-temperature (cubic) phases of copper and silver chalcogenides has been assessed within the density-functional approach using pseudopotential calculations implemented in the Quantum Espresso program package. The results indicate that Cu–Ag cation substitutions and S–Se–Te anion substitutions lead to a reduction in electron shell overlap.
