Abstract
The purpose of the present paper is to report our non-relativistic Xα calculations of trigonal Te. In the self-consistent (SC) symmetrized OPW (SOPW) method used [1] both the valence states represented by SOPWs and the core states are included in the SC iteration. The only parameters entering into our calculations are the lattice constants a=0.44572 nm, u=0.11736 nm, c=0.5929 nm and the Xα-parameter α. Our SC α=1 band structure is quite similar to the SC pseudopotential one [2], Our bands are characteristically ∼0.2 eV broader and the gaps about the same amount narrower. Our rough α=2/3 density of states (DOS) histogram has two s, two p-bonding and one broader p-non-bonding peaks in agreement with earlier experience [2,4,5].
