Abstract
The problem of describing quantum mechanically a region of interest in an otherwise extended lattice is discussed for nonmetallic solids. A localizing potential to accomplish this is described, and its implications for the total-energy algorithm are analyzed. A spurious tunneling effect that may arise with a finite embedding lattice is also discussed. © 1988 The American Physical Society.
