Abstract
We calculate the energy band structure and the Fermi surface of PuS, PuSe and PuTe by using a self-consistent relativistic linear augmented-plane-wave method with the exchange and correlation potential in a local density approximation. It is found in common that the energy bands in the vicinity of the Fermi level are mainly due to the hybridization between Pu 5/ and monochalcogenide p electrons. The obtained main Fermi surfaces are composed of two hole sheets and one electron sheet, all of which are constructed from the band having the Pu 5/ state and the monochalcogenide p state.
