Abstract
The band-structure of BaBiO3 has been calculated by using LMTO-ASA met hod to a supercell, in which the breathing-mode displacements of oxyge n atoms and two oxidation states of Bi were considered. The results in dicate that BaBiO3 is a semiconductor with a gap of 1.5eV, which, unli ke previous calculations, is essentially consistent with experiments.
