摘要
We report a systematic study of the electronic properties of zinc-blende CuCl. The band structure, valence and conduction effective mass, density of states (DOS) and charges densities are calculated using the local density all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method. Our results are in agreement with a host of theoretical and experimental data yielding a consistent description of electronic properties of this class of technologically important semiconductor compounds.
