Abstract

Charge transport and optical properties have been studied experimentally and theoretically in a series of LaGa1-xMnxO3 crystals in the dependence on the material composition. Electron energy structure and optical functions of LaGa1-xMnxO3 are calculated by ab initio pseudopotential method within density functional theory using generalized gradient approximation. Theoretical results are discussed in comparison with the experimental data for different alloy compositions.
