Notizen:
The one-electron density matrix (DM) of a number of crystalline systems - lithium, graphite, boron nitride, silicon, and beryllium - are considered here, as resulting from Hartree-Fock-SCF-LCAO calculations. The influence of structural and computational parameters is discussed. It is shown in particular why the structure of chemical bonds in semiconductors leads to an oscillating long-range behavior of the DM, similar to that observed in metals, where these oscillations are related to the very existence of a Fermi surface. Concerning computational parameters, the influence of the density of sampling k points and of basis set on the calculated DM is considered; it is shown that the choice of the basis set is not a very critical one as far as the DM range is concerned. Some critical aspects of the interrelation between DM range and exchange part of the Fock Hamiltonian are analyzed.
