electron wave function
21Inner sphere electron transfer — Inner sphere or bonded electron transfer[1] proceeds via a covalent linkage between the two redox partners, the oxidant and the reductant. In Inner Sphere (IS) electron transfer (ET), a ligand bridges the two metal redox centers during the… …
22Vertex function — In quantum electrodynamics, the vertex function describes the coupling between a photon and an electron beyond the leading order of perturbation theory. In particular, it is the one particle irreducible correlation function involving the fermion… …
23Evanescent wave — Schematic representation of evanescent waves propagating along a metal dielectric interface. The charge density oscillations, when associated with electromagnetic fields, are called surface plasmon polariton waves. The exponential dependence of… …
24Monte Carlo methods for electron transport — The Monte Carlo method for electron transport is a semiclassical Monte Carlo(MC) approach of modeling semiconductor transport. Assuming the carrier motion consists of free flights interrupted by scattering mechanisms, a computer is utilized to… …
25Sawtooth wave — The sawtooth wave (or saw wave) is a kind of non sinusoidal waveform. It is named a sawtooth based on its resemblance to the teeth on the blade of a saw.The usual convention is that a sawtooth wave ramps upward as time goes by and then sharply… …
26Bloch wave — A Bloch wave or Bloch state, named after Felix Bloch, is the wavefunction of a particle (usually, an electron) placed in a periodic potential. It consists of the product of a plane wave envelope function and a periodic function ( periodic Bloch… …
27Spin wave — Spin waves are propagating disturbances in the ordering of magnetic materials. These low lying collective excitations occur in magnetic lattices with continuous symmetry. From the equivalent quasiparticle point of view, spin waves are known as… …
28Acorn Electron — The Acorn Electron is a budget version of the BBC Micro educational/home computer made by Acorn Computers Ltd. It had 32 kilobytes of RAM, and its ROM included BBC BASIC along with its operating system.The Electron was able to save and load… …
29Point spread function — The point spread function (PSF) describes the response of an imaging system to a point source or point object. A related but more general term for the PSF is a system s impulse response. The PSF in many contexts can be thought of as the extended… …
30Low-energy electron diffraction — (LEED) is a technique used to characterize the structures of surfaces.History =Davisson and Germer s discovery of electron diffraction= The development of electron diffraction was closely linked to the progress of quantum mechanics and atomic… …
