Bn. Harmon et al., CALCULATION OF MAGNETOOPTICAL PROPERTIES FOR 4F SYSTEMS - LSDA PLUS HUBBARD-U RESULTS, Journal of physics and chemistry of solids, 56(11), 1995, pp. 1521-1524
The electronic structure of gadolinium metal and CeSb has been calcula
ted using a density functional method which explicitly includes the Co
ulomb parameter U for the 4f-electrons. The calculated density of stat
es, total energies, Fermi surface, and magneto-optical properties are
in better agreement with experiment than those obtained with the stand
ard local density technique.
