A pseudopotential calculation of the density of states of expanded crystalline mercury

• The first calculation of the density of states of expanded crystalline Hg is reported for the f.c.c., b.c.c., and s.c. structures in the density range ∼ 4–9 g/cm3. The calculations are based on Animalu's local pseudopotential. It is found that a band gap opens up at 6.5 g/cm3 for f.c.c., 5.5 g/cm3 for b.c.c., and 4 g/cm3 for s.c.
