Energy Spectrum and Electron Density of States in 3D-Transition Metals and Alloys

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Based on a generalized two-band Hamiltonian, the paper studies the formation of magnetic moment, energy spectrum and d-electron density of states of transition metals. It is shown that sd electron degeneracy in Hamiltonian results in the additional exchange-correlation energy of electrons, which in cooperation with the correlation energy determines the electronic structure of d-transition metals. In this case, the electron density of states has three peaks on the three-dimensional diagrams. And if the exchange-correlation energy is neglected, one peak disappears.
