Abstract

We have calculated the electronic structure, total energy, magnetic moments and electrical resistivities of La.67Ca.33MnO3 using mean field band theory. The magnetic and structural properties seem to be in good agreement with experiment. The calculations predict that La.67Ca.33MnO3 is metallic for the majority spins and semiconducting for the minority spins.
