In practice, for example, one generally solves a 6 x 6 secular problem that
includes both d- and s-levels in computing the band structure of the transition
metals, which have in the atomic state an outer s-shell and a partially filled d-
shell.

In this chapter we describe some of the better understood features of the band
structures of specific metals, as deduced from experiment through techniques
such as those described in Chapter 14. Our primary aim is simply to illustrate the

In contrast to the IA (alkali) and IB (noble) metals, the properties of the IIA and IIB
metals are considerably less drastically affected by the presence or absence of
the filled d-band. Band structure calculations indicate that in zinc and cadmium ...
