Full potential LAPW calculations of positron lifetimes in materials

ORAL

Abstract

We report positron lifetime calculations for a large number of semiconductors and insulators, including materials of interest for radiation detection. These include CdTe, ZnTe, lanthanide trihalides, orthophosphates, ZnO. Trends in lifetimes with structural features are discussed.
