  2. Work function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_function

    The work function depends on the configurations of atoms at the surface of the material. For example, on polycrystalline silver the work function is 4.26 eV, but on silver crystals it varies for different crystal faces as (100) face: 4.64 eV, (110) face: 4.52 eV, (111) face: 4.74 eV. [13] Ranges for typical surfaces are shown in the table below ...

  3. List of periodic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_periodic_functions

    This is a list of some well-known periodic functions. The constant function f ( x ) = c , where c is independent of x , is periodic with any period, but lacks a fundamental period . A definition is given for some of the following functions, though each function may have many equivalent definitions.

  4. Ionization energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionization_energy

    Ionization energy trends plotted against the atomic number, in units eV.The ionization energy gradually increases from the alkali metals to the noble gases.The maximum ionization energy also decreases from the first to the last row in a given column, due to the increasing distance of the valence electron shell from the nucleus.

  5. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Periodic table of the chemical elements showing the most or more commonly named sets of elements (in periodic tables), and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. The f-block actually fits between groups 2 and 3 ; it is usually shown at the foot of the table to save horizontal space.

  6. Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform

    The Fourier transform of a periodic function cannot be defined using the integral formula directly. In order for integral in Eq.1 to be defined the function must be absolutely integrable. Instead it is common to use Fourier series. It is possible to extend the definition to include periodic functions by viewing them as tempered distributions.

  7. Periodic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_function

    An illustration of a periodic function with period . A periodic function, also called a periodic waveform (or simply periodic wave), is a function that repeats its values at regular intervals or periods. The repeatable part of the function or waveform is called a cycle. [1]

  8. Germanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanium

    In 1869, Dmitri Mendeleev predicted its existence and some of its properties from its position on his periodic table, and called the element ekasilicon. On February 6, 1886, Clemens Winkler at Freiberg University found the new element, along with silver and sulfur, in the mineral argyrodite. Winkler named the element after Germany, his country ...

  9. Term symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Term_symbol

    Each table will have the size (2L+1) by (2S+1), and will contain only "1"s as entries. The first table extracted corresponds to M L ranging from −2 to +2 (so L = 2), with a single value for M S (implying S = 0). This corresponds to a 1 D term. The remaining terms fit inside the middle 3×3 portion of the table above.
