Abstract

The electronic bandstructures of fcc rhodium have been calculated for the normal value of the lattice constant and one 5% smaller, using the nonrelativistic symmetrized augmented plane wave method. The results of the first calculation are in good agreement with those of other workers. Under pressure the d-bands shift and broaden appreciably, resulting in a slight increase in d-occupation.
