Figure 3. Electronic properties of different types of metals. Electronic band structures of (A and B) regular metals and (C-E) gapped metals as computed using PBE exchange-correlation functional. The space group number is abbreviated as SG. EF is the Fermi level. The internal band gap for gapped metals is shown as the shaded green region. PBE: Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof; SG: space group.
