Vibrational and Thermal Properties of ZnX (X=Se, Te): Density Functional Theory (LDA and GGA) versus Experiment

R. K. Kremer, M. Cardona, R. Lauck +2

We calculated the phonon dispersion relations of ZnX (X=Se, Te) employing ab initio techniques. These relations have been used to evaluate the temperature dependence of the respect…

Electronic, vibrational and thermodynamic properties of beta-HgS (metacinnabar), HgSe and HgTe

M. Cardona, R. K. Kremer, R. Lauck +3

We report ab initio calculations of the electronic band structure and the phonon dispersion relations of the zincblende-type mercury chalcogenides (beta-HgS, HgSe, and HgTe). The l…
