| Abstract: | The band structure of solid argon has been calculated using a classical, non-relativistic, nonselfconsistent APW method. The crystal potential was constructed by a superposition of atomic potentials due to the neighbouring atoms. We used Slater's statistical exchange potential approximation. Our results have generally confirmed those by Mattheiss. Our calculation is extended however to include a wider energy region and other symmetry directions than those carried out by Mattheiss. |
