Abstract

We report a first principles calculation of gallium arsenide optical properties based on the density-functional theory in the local-density approximation. The nonlocality of the pseudopotential has a sizable effect on the computed spectrum and on the static dielectric constant. The effect of a ''scissors-operator'' shift of the energy bands is discussed.
