dc.descriptionBy using pseudopotential method with local spin density functional approximation, the electronic band structures of Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$ are calculated for $x=0.25$, 0.5, 0.75, and $x=1$ in the presence of the structure relaxations. As increasing Na content, the hybridization between cobalt and oxygen orbitals is decreased, and a phase transition is predicted from a wide-band ferromagnetic to a narrow band paramagnetic metals. The itinerant ferromagnetism is strongly suppressed by the local distortions of the oxygens around the cobalts. Moreover, straining the CoO$_{2}$ layers corresponding to the hydrated superconductor Na$_{0.35}$CoO$_{2}\cdot $1.3H$%_{2}$O strongly enhances both the hybridization and ferromagnetism.
