DateTime.Parse('2020-01-01')

or

DateTime.Create(2020, 1, 1)

Empty DateTime that is not nullable

A DateTime that is not nullable, i.e. a DateTime, not a DateTime? Without a date, what value does it have?

You can create a value using - which will be empty:

DateTime.Create(1, 1, 1)

You can also compare an empty DateTime value with this empty DateTime value like this:

vDateTimeValue = DateTime.Create(1, 1, 1) 

It will return true for an empty but not nullable DateTime variable.
