  Recent results of the description of quadrupole moments of odd semi-magic
nuclei are briefly reviewed. They are based on the self-consistent theory of
finite Fermi systems with account for the phonon-particle coupling (PC)
effects. The self-consistent model for describing the PC effects was developed
previously for magnetic moments. Account for the non-pole diagrams is an
important ingredient of this model. In addition to previously reported results
for the odd In and Sb isotopes, which are the proton-odd neighbors of even tin
nuclei, we present new results for odd Bi isotopes, the odd neighbors of even
lead isotopes. In general, account for the PC corrections makes the agreement
with the experimental data significantly better.
