FLAPW electronic band structure of the filled skutterudite ThFe4P12

Description

The electronic band structure is calculated for ThFe4P12 by using an FLAPW method. The result reveals that, between the filled valence bands and empty conduction bands, there is a direct band gap at the Γ point with gap width of 33.1 mRy (0.45 eV), contrary to experimental results
