The electronic structures of ternary compound Nd[sub 2]Fe[sub 17]N with N atoms on 9[ital e], 3[ital b], and 18[ital g] sites are calculated and compared. The local moments on different Fe sites are in good agreement with experiments. The mechanism of increasing Curie temperature by [ital N] doping is checked by additional calculations with lattice expansion. The results show that the change in interatomic interaction is more important than the lattice expansion effect.
