โœฆ Synopsis

Band structure calculations from first principles provide the basis of a simple explanation for the appearance of ferromagnetism in iron, cobalt, and nickel that is founded upon a uniquely chemical concept: bonding. It is shown that the onset of ferromagnetism strengthens the metal-metal bonds in these transition metals by reducing the antibonding nearest neighbor interactions that would otherwise appear at the Fermi level.

A polyhedral hybrid approach, based on generalized valence bond theory, is proposed to treat the electronic structure and bonding in transition metal molecules. A key feature of the approach is the ubiquity of "bent bonds" formed from overlapping hybrid orbitals.
