Abstract:CdIn 2 S 4 thiospinel was studied by means of the first principles calculations in both generalized gradient and local density approximations (GGA and LDA). The structural, electronic, optical and elastic properties were calculated in the pressure range from 0 to 10 GPa, below the pressure of phase transition for this compound. One of the main results of the paper is that the previously encountered in the literature controversy regarding the character
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
