Abstract

AbstractThe band structure of solid silicon is selfconsistently determined with the help of local Xα exchange and correlation potentials using the MAPW method. From a detailed comparison with experimental data and regarding the care taken with numerical convergence and approximations one is forced to conclude that the Xα potential at best may only yield a rough understanding of the electronic structure of Si.
