Electronic structure of FeTiH

Abstract

Presents the results of a band structure study of the electronic properties of beta FeTiH. The density of states is characterised by a structure at 9 eV below the Fermi energy, resulting from the metal-hydrogen interaction, and the Fermi energy falls in a rising portion to the density of states; the author finds 23.93 states of both spin per Ryd FeTiH at the Fermi level. A comparison with the electronic structure of pure FeTi is also given.
