Description

Compton profiles of the first-stage graphite intercalation compound LiC6 have been calculated using the self-consistent pseudopotential method within the local-density-functional formalism. The difference between profiles of LiC6 and graphite exhibits characteristic features which provide further elucidation of the electronic properties of intercalation. It is found that the change in the electron momentum distribution in LiC6 is qualitatively different from that predicted by the generally accepted rigid-band model
