Abstract
An adjusted local pseudopotential method is used to obtain the electro nic band structure of boron phosphide under pressure. The electronic c harge density distributions are computed at several points of the vale nce and conduction band edges. These charge densities are used to stud y the modification of the bonding and electronic properties of the com pound with respect to different volumes ranging from 0.75V(0) to V-0.
