摘要
The full potential-linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method is implemented in WIEN2K code to calculate the indirect energy gap (Gamma-X) using density functional theory (OFT). The Engel-Vosko generalized gradient approximation (EV-GGA) and modified Becke Johnson (mBJ) formalisms are used to optimize the corresponding potential for energetic transition and optical properties calculations of lead chalcogenides (PbS1-xTex) alloys as a function of quantum dot diameter and is used to test the validity of our model of quantum dot potential. The refractive index and optical dielectric constant are investigated to explore best applications for solar cells. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
