| Shown are numerical results for the Kronig–Penney model. | ||
| The parameter a can be varied to quantify the strength of the periodic lattice potential. | ||

| The red curve shows the dispersion relation of the free electron gas, i.e. it's a parabolic function. | ||
| The blue curve shows the dispersion relation with band gaps. | ||
| The green curve shows the same dispersion relation in the reduced representation. | ||
