Copper has its characteristic color because of its unique band structure.

Several approaches to finding band structure are discussed below.

Thus, their energy levels stack up, creating band structure out of each atomic energy level.

This generates an electron-hole pair and sometimes heat, depending on the band structure.

The model enables understanding and calculating the electronic band structure of especially metals.

For crystals the electronic band structure determines the density of states.

However, in case of very high field transport, which requires the better physical model of the full band structure.

Semiconductor for a full explanation of the band structure of materials.

However its electronic band structure is not known with any great degree of certainty.

For two and three-dimensional problems it is more difficult to calculate a band structure based on a similar model with a few parameters accurately.
