Abstract

The electronic properties of some Perovskite hydrides; LiMgH_3,KMgH_(3,) LiCaH_3 are studied using the Tight Binding Approximation included in the TB-LMTO program. The band structures and density of states are calculated. From the density of states calculation we found out the band gap. Also from the Fermi energy level we interpreted whether the compound has metallic behavior or not. Finally,a comparative study of their electronic properties is carried out.
