Abstract
A theoretical study of elastic and electronic properties of the filled skutterudite CeFe4P12 is presented, using the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital (FP-LMTO) method. In this approach the local spin density approximation (LSDA) was used for the exchange-correlation (XC) potential. Results are given for lattice constant, bulk modulus, its pressure derivative and elastic constants. Our calculations performed for band structure and density of state show that this compound is an indirect band gap material (Î-N). The results are compared with previous calculations and experimental data.
