First-Principles Study of Electronic Structure, Optical Properties and LO-TO Splitting of GaP

The electronic structure and optical properties of GaP were calculated using generalized gradients in density functional theory. The Bonn effective charge, optical frequency dielectric constant and the LO-TO splitting value were calculated by density functional theory perturbation method.
