Abstracts
The electronic structure of four cubic perovskites were calculated by using density functional theory. For electronic structure calculations standard generalized gradient approximation and semilocal Tran-Blaha modified Becke-Johnson potential were used. Nonlocal hybrid Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof functional was used to obtain lattice constants and bulk moduli. Standard generalized gradient approximation results are in good agreement with previous calculations but the band gap calculated within TB-mBJ are significally larger for all compounds. For BiAlO_3 this values are: 1.49 eV (GGA) and 2.47 eV (TB-mBJ), BiGaO_3: 1.23 eV (GGA) and 2.12 (TB-mBJ), BiInO_3: 0.06 eV (GGA) and 0.83 eV (TB-mBJ), BiScO_3: 0.70 eV (GGA) and 1.38 eV (TB-mBJ).
