contents This article is concerned with the numerical simulations of perfect crystals. We study the rate of convergence of the reduced Hartree-Fock (rHF) model in a supercell towards the periodic rHF model in the whole space. We prove that, whenever the crystal is an insulator or a semi-conductor, the supercell energy per unit cell converges exponentially fast towards the periodic rHF energy per unit cell, with respect to the size of the supercell.
