Abstract

AbstractThe potential difference of two basis atoms, which arises from the tetrahedral bonding, is included in the calculation of the silicon band structure using the local empirical pseudopotential method (EPM). It is shown that the small antisymmetric form factor due to the potential distortion gives substantial contribution to high lying conduction bands.
