Influence of 4f hybridization on the structural and electronic properties of CeM2Si2(M = Ru, Rh, and Pd)

We present full potential ab initio calculations to study structural and electronic properties of CeM2Si2 with M = Ru, Rh, and Pd. Two kind of calculations are performed: one considering the 4f states as hybridized ones and another simulating Ce systems with nonhybridized 4f states on structural pro...

Sumario:We present full potential ab initio calculations to study structural and electronic properties of CeM2Si2 with M = Ru, Rh, and Pd. Two kind of calculations are performed: one considering the 4f states as hybridized ones and another simulating Ce systems with nonhybridized 4f states on structural properties such as equilibrium volume c/a ratio, and bulk modulus and study their evolution together with that of the spin magnetic moment under applied hydrostatic pressure. The results are compared with experimental data. © 2004 The American Physical Society.
