On the electronic density of states of the transition metals

IV. The superposition model

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Hadrons and nuclei

Abstract

A superposition model is suggested to describe the electronic density of states curves of binary alloys with the aid of those of the component metals. It is based on a charge transfer between the different atomic cells. The application of this model to different spectroscopic methods studying the density of states brings up the question of the localizing and averaging properties of the corresponding experiments.
