Abstract
The electronic properties of single twin boundaries in lead sulfide, a nd of superlattices based upon them, are calculated and discussed. Sub stantial differences are noted from a similar study based on zinc-blen de-type semiconductors. It is found that such superlattices can have e ither wider or narrower band gaps than the homogeneous material.
