Abstract
The authors present an ab initio pseudopotential calculation within the local density approximation to determine the electronic structure and the full set of elastic constants of AlP, which have not yet been directly established experimentally. They find C11=1.34, C12=0.68 and C44=0.70 Mbar. The authors also present a study of the electronic band structure of AlP.Keywords
