I had performed DFT calculations on electronic properties and analysis on electronic band structure is required for my research. I had approach several papers and literatures but I don't find such which reports deep analysis on electronic band structure.
So, I would be truly thankful if any could suggest me those literatures which contain such deep analysis on electronic band structure.
Thank you in advance!
That topic is one of the central in Solid State Physics.
Therefore books on the Solid State is a first step.
The two basic models are Nearly Free electrons and tight binding model..
IE. book by Ashcroft and Mermin
DFT has summaries in Reviews of Modern Physics.(long articles)
Dear Juan Weisz thank you for your kind information and reply. I will look into it.
Lattice periodicity opens gaps in a free electron spectrum, that is the essential origin of electronic bands.
