Abstract
Chapter 12 addressed the general application of space groups to the oneelectron energy bands in a periodic solid in the limit of vanishing periodic potential [V (r) → 0]. This chapter deals with a model for which V (r) ≠ 0 is present and where extensive use is made of crystal symmetry, namely k · p perturbation theory. The Slater-Koster model, which also has a basic symmetry formalism, is discussed in Chap. 15, after the spin-orbit interaction is considered in Chap. 14
