Abstract

AbstractCalculations are carried out using first‐principles self‐consistent local‐density and nonlocal density theory of the electronic structure, the total energy, and the charge density of a variety of semiconducting and insulating compounds under hydrostatic and uniaxial pressure. For several cases, the transition pressure from one structure to another is determined as well as the pressure coefficients of the main band gaps. It is shown that several properties are calculated with adequate accuracy to be compared with experiment, so that values which have not yet been measured are trustworthy predictions. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
