Abstract: | The band structure of the cubic phase of zirconium dioxide is obtained by employing the LMTO method. Its PV-diagram is calculated to determine the equilibrium lattice constant. The emission Zr LIII-spectrum of this compound is interpreted.Institute of Metallophysics, Ukrainian Academy of Sciences. Kiev Polytechnical Institute.
