Abstract

Positron annihilation characteristics in perfect crystals of diamond, Si and Ge are studied theoretically and experimentally. A first-principles calculation based on the two-component density functional theory is presented. Calculations are found to be in good agreement with our measurements. An interesting difference among experimental two-dimensional angular correlation of annihilation radiation (2D-ACAR) for diamond, Si and Ge is clarified by band by band decomposition for the calculated three-dimensional momentum distributions.
