Electronic structure of rare-earth mononitrides: quasiatomic excitations and semiconducting bands

The electronic structure of the rare-earth mononitrides Ln N (where Ln = rare-earth), which are promising materials for future spintronics applications, is difficult to resolve experimentally due to a strong influence of defects on their transport and optical properties. At the same time, Ln N are c...
