Abstract

The band structure of Na_2-xCu_xS compounds has been calculated from first principles. According to the obtained results, the Na₄Cu₂S₃ compound exhibits semiconducting properties. The Na₄Cu₂S₃ compound has the band gap 2.164 eV and is characterized by a high density of states near the Fermi level.
