In this work, the structural, electronic and optical properties of fluoroperovskite ABF(3) (A = K, Na; B = Mg, Zn) were studied using two different approaches: the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method and the pseudo-potential plane wave scheme in the frame of generalized gradient approximation features such as the lattice constant, bulk modulus and its pressure derivative are reported. The ground state properties of these compounds such as the equilibrium lattice constant and the bulk modulus are in good agreement with the experimental results. The first principles calculations were performed to study the electronic structures of ABF(3)(A = K, Na; B = Mg, Zn) compounds and the results indicated that these four compounds are indirect band gap insulators. The optical properties are analysed and the source of some peaks in the spectra is discussed. Besides, the dielectric function, refractive index and extinction coefficient for radiation up to 25 eV have also been reported and discussed.
