In this paper, the electronic and optical properties of the most effective KMgF3 material are studied, thin films of which are used as a solid-state vacuum ultraviolet phosphor. At the first stage, we obtained wave functions in the framework of the electron density functional GGA. In the second stage, we calculated the improved value of the band gap using the Green's function (approximation GW), constructed on the wave functions calculated in the GGA approximation. We found that the band gap evaluated within the GGA method is about 4.73 eV less than the experimental value. At the third stage the absorption spectrum of the material was calculated on the basis of data obtained in the previous steps. For the first time, quasiparticle electron energies and the absorption spectrum on their basis are found.
