Description
First principles calculations, by means of the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the local density approximation, were carried out for the electronic properties of Li3GaN2. The calculated lattice parameter is in good agreement with the measured one. The bandgap is direct at the Brillouin zone centre. The Li-N and Ga-N bonds are both ionic with a small covalent character of the latter one
