Description

The application of the modified OPW method for calculating the band structure of rare earths is considered. The effect of the parameters of the MOPW method on the energy bands obtained is systematically studied for Eu and general rules on the choice of these parameters are found. The spin-polarized band structure of the ferromagnetic semiconductor EuO is determined taking into account these rules. The effect of f-states of the metal and the (m-t) approximation of the crystal potential on the compound energy bands is studied. (author)
