Abstract The energy‐band structure of CdO was calculated along the high symmetrical axes of the Brillouin zone by use of the APW method. This method seems to be more suitable for the rocksalt lattice than for the zincblende structure. The resulting energy bands are similar to the bands of silver halides.
