Charge density of group IVA transition-metal dichalcogenides

Abstract
A systematic study of electronic properties of the layered group IVA transition-metal dichalcogenides TiS2, TiSe2, ZrS2 and ZrSe2 has been performed using the fully self-consistent OPW method according to the local density formalism. The X-ray form factors and the charge density are presented. The anisotropy, the bonding properties and the layer-layer interaction are analysed and discussed in detail. Also a general conclusion on the electronic properties of the group IVA transition-metal dichalcogenides is given.
