Abstract

The electronic structure of Zn has been calculated by the Green's function method and it is found that the 3 d bands lie above the conduction band minimum, not below it as previously believed. This finding is in agreement with recent X-ray emission and u.v.-photo-emission studies. Comparison with all available experimental data shows that the calculated band structure is in good accord with the data not only in the immediate vicinity of the Fermi energy, E f , but in the entire energy range from the bottom of the conduction band (∼ 11eV below E F ) to a few eV above E F .
