Temperature dependent electronic properties of bulk Aluminium system

Abstract

We investigate the possibility of controlling the electronic structure of the bulk aluminium material by given thermal energy to the system. As a bulk material, the structure and optical properties of the aluminium are well known in the literature. Its thermal dependent structural change has also been investigated many times. However, up to the best of our knowledge the relationship between the electronic properties, mechanical structure and some phase transitions of the aluminium due to the thermal energy pumping to the system has not been analyzed in detail. We show that the band structure of aluminium is strongly dependent on the thermal energy obtained by the system and on the phase transitions.
