Abstract :
The electron energy bands and densities of states have been calculated within the projector augmented waves (PAW) formalism. The PBE exchange-correlation functional gives the absence of the gap contrary to the experiment. The account of the exact exchange substantially improves the results for direct and indirect interband gaps.
