In this figure, the red curves represent the nearly-free electron dispersion, which differs from the free-electron dispersion (black curves) because of the interaction with the lattice. We see that **band gaps** open where two copies of the free-electron dispersion cross. A key goal of this lecture is to understand how the weak interaction with the lattice leads to this modified band structure.
