Pseudopotentials

  • Chapter
Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of Semiconductors

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences ((SSSOL,volume 75))

Abstract

The pseudopotential method will be used throughout the remainder of this text to calculate E n (k) and other properties of semiconductors. The major virtue of this approach is that only the valence electrons need be considered. The cores are assumed to be frozen in an atomic-like configuration, and the valence electrons move in a net, weak one-electron potential.
