MO calculations are performed using the Xα‐SW and the EHT methods. The calculated DOS profiles of Pt 6 and Ir 6 show a good coincidence with those from relativistic bulk band structure calculations (RAPW). The use of a 5d/6s basis set with VSIP's from HFS SCF calculations allows a sufficiently good coincidence of the EHT eigenvalue spectrum with the corresponding Xα‐SW spectrum. Therefore a further adjusting of EHT parameters on Xα‐SW results is not necessary.
