研究成果
The study successfully calculated and analyzed the structural, electronic, and optical properties of LiMgN, NaMgN, and KMgN half-Heusler alloys using DFT with the FP-LAPW method. The results align well with previous experimental and theoretical data, demonstrating the utility of DFT approaches in studying complex materials. The findings suggest potential applications of these materials in optoelectronics and related fields.
研究不足
The study is limited by the computational methods and approximations used, such as the generalized gradient approximation, which may not capture all electronic and optical properties accurately. Future studies could explore more advanced computational techniques or experimental validations.
