Near-infrared radiation absorption properties of covellite (CuS) using first-principles calculations

First-principles density functional theory was used to investigate the electronic structure, optical properties and the origin of the near-infrared (NIR) absorption of covellite (CuS). The calculated lattice constant and optical properties are found to be in reasonable agreement with experimental an...
