Abstract:Using the sublattice method and density functional theory, the electronic structure of a LiTlTe2 crystal with the chalcopyrite structure was studied for the first time and the equilibrium parameters of the crystal lattice a=6.7526 Angstrem, c=13.3037 Angstrem, u(Te)=0.2423 were calculated. It has been established that the valence bands of the LiTlTe2 crystal and its closest analogue LiInTe2 actually coincide in topology, and the LiTlTe2 crystal is a direct-gap semiconductor with a band gap of 0.63 eV and a cry… Show more
