First-principles study of electronic transport and structural properties of Cu_{12}Sb_{4}S_{13} in its high-temperature phase

We present an ab initio study of the structural and electronic transport properties of tetrahedrite, Cu_{12}Sb_{4}S_{13}, in its high-temperature phase. We show how this complex compound can be seen as the outcome of an ordered arrangement of S-vacancies in a semiconducting fematinite-like structure...
