Let's consider we have a crystal and we search the energy relation of the bands as function of the reciprocal lattice vectors. We would do that theoretical by applying the Tight-binding method. Let's consider that each band is associated with some kind of orbital ( for instance, 3d orbitals). Is it true that we should expect that the bands which are wider in energy are associated with the most energetic orbitals since those are more delocalized in space and the overlapping with the same orbitals of the neighbour atoms are more significant?
