How to calculate the density of states in conduction band of SnO2?

06 June 2012 1 10K Report

Does anyone have an idea on how to calculate the density of states in conduction band of SnO2 or how to modify it?

Dear Sandeep,

we did calculations based on density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory for the electronic structure of SnO2. So I would think that can be an option, details can be found here: http://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevB.83.035116

What type of modifications are you thinking of?
