An alternative scheme for ab initio polymer band structure calculations based on a Filon‐type quadrature is proposed. This scheme avoids the explicit calculation and the storage of the “troublesome” Fourier transforms of the LCAO density matrix elements and is a first step towards a better control of the convergence of the different lattice sums appearing in the configuration space LCAO‐SCF‐CO method. The potential of the proposed technique is illustrated by a minimal basis set calculations on an infinite chain of H atoms.
