Abstract

Our theoretical modeling of the electronic structure in the intermetallic Gd4Sb3 and GdSb2 compounds has been done in the framework of density functional theory accounting for spin-orbit coupling. It revealed the metallic character of the summed total density of electronic states for both materials. The complicated Fermi surfaces were found in the half-metallic Gd4Sb3 compound which corresponds to the band structure. The GdSb2 material is obtained to be a bad metal with the low density of states near the Fermi energy, the Fermi surfaces of GdSb2 are found to have the cylindrical shape.
