DFT-investigation on anisotropy degree of electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of olivine ZnRE2S4 (RE = Er, Tm) compounds

Using PP-APW method the electronic, optical and mechanical anisotropy of ZnRE _2 S _4 (RE = Er, Tm) olivine compounds was investigated. The calculated unit cell parameters are in good agreement compared to the experimental ones. In addition, the study of electronic properties reveals that ZnEr _2 S...
