Abstract
Electron structure of silicon nitride β-Si3N4 was calculated by LMTO-ASA method cooperated with the use of Löwdin perturbation technique that saved computation time considerably. The results are in good agreement with that of ab initio pseudopotential method and indicate that appropriate setting of empty spheres is especially important for a crystal with a widely open structure.
