摘要
The density functional calculation is performed for centrosymmetric(La–Pm) GaO;rare earth gallates, using a full potential linear augmented plane wave method with the LSDA and LSDA+U exchange correlation to treat highly correlated electrons due to the very localized 4f orbitals of rare earth elements, and explore the influence of U = 0.478 Ry on the magnetic phase stability and the densities of states. LSDA+U calculation shows that the ferromagnetic(FM) state of RGaO;is energetically more favorable than the anti-ferromagnetic(AFM) one, except for LaGaO;where the NM state is the lowest in energy. The energy band gaps of RGaO;are found to be in the range of 3.8–4.0 eV, indicating the semiconductor character with a large gap.
