First-principles studies on structural and electronic properties of ThN
Abstract
We present an ab‐initio study of the structural and electronic properties of ThN. The plane‐wave pseudopotential approach to the density‐functional theory within the generalized‐gradient approximation implemented in VASP(Viena Ab‐initio Simulation Package) is used. The calculated lattice parameter, elastic constants and band structures are compared with the available experimental and the other theoretical results, and good agreement is obtained.
