The method will be a valuable tool both for researchers engaged in calculations and for scientists looking for numerical results of self-consistent bandstructure calculations. The presentation starts with an introduction to the modern many-body theory of electronic bandstructure. The essentials of the representation with a non-orthogonal basis and the usual tight-binding variants are critically reviewed. A variational approach to the optimization of atom-like basis orbitals is described together with an SCF procedure for band calculations. Complete numerical and graphic results for all elementary metals from lithium to zinc are given.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-12-06\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783662025642\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-662-02562-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: cm xcm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 221\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47672151212172,"sku":"9783662025642","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783662025642.jpg?v=1776520476","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783662025642","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
