43. Structure 33(c) is also found to be the most stable if the CPMD program is used with the gradient-corrected functional of J P. Perdew, K. Burke, and M. Ernzerhof, Phys. Rev. Lett.77, 3865 (1996). This structure was found by long simulated annealing runs starting from both (a) the bulk structure with two adjacent atoms removed, and (b) structure 33(b).

These calculations adopted a spin-averaged, non-self-consistent scheme using the Harris functional and the local density approximation. Nonlocal pseudopotentials and a minimum basis of localized atomiclike functions (one s and three p functions per site) were used.
