文摘The authors became aware of a mistake in the original version of this Article.Specifically,some of the band gap values plotted and reported in Fig.1c and Table SI-1 were incorrect.This error originated because two different types of k-point meshes were used in DFT computations performed on CdTe,CdSe and CdS:one which is gamma-centered and one which is not gamma-centered.
