The 15 pages that link to Band structure, each with the reason it gives.

• Crystal structureRelated: The periodic crystal potential shapes electronic bands and helps determine conductivity.

• Density functional theoryRelated: Density functional calculations are widely used to estimate electronic bands in crystals.

• Brillouin zoneNarrower topic: The zone supplies the standard wave-vector domain for periodic solids.

• Fermi levelRelated: Band edges locate the Fermi level within or between allowed energies.

• Fermi surfaceNarrower topic: Its energy bands determine where the Fermi energy cuts through momentum space.

• Bloch's theoremRelated: It is computed by solving for Bloch eigenstates across wavevector space.

• Photoelectron spectroscopyRelated: Angle-resolved measurements directly map occupied portions of a material’s band structure.

• Optical latticeRelated: The lattice produces atomic energy bands that govern transport and excitation.

• Tight-binding modelNarrower topic: The model's central output is the dispersion of electronic bands.

• Effective massRelated: The band structure supplies the energy–momentum relation from which band effective mass is calculated.

• Nearly-free-electron modelNarrower topic: The model is a simple route from free-electron energies to a crystal's band structure.

• Pauli paramagnetismRelated: Real materials' bands determine the states available at the Fermi energy.

• First-principles calculationBroader topic: It reveals whether a predicted material is metallic, insulating, or semiconducting.

• ElectrideRelated: It describes whether electride electrons form conducting bands or remain more localized.

• Lattice models in condensed matterRelated: Periodic lattice motion produces energy bands and gaps.
