Electronic structure and the Fermi surface of ThRhIn5 in comparison with uranium and transuranium compounds

Abstract

By using a relativistic linear augmented-plane-wave method, we clarify energy band structure and the Fermi surfaces of recently synthesized thorium compound ThRhIn5. We find several cylindrical Fermi surface sheets, which are similar to those of CeTIn5 (T=Ir and Co), PuTGa5 (T=Co and Rh), and AmCoGa5. We discuss such similarity among the compounds including rare-earth or actinide ions with different f electron numbers.
