  2. Coefficients of potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficients_of_potential

    The coefficients of potential are the coefficients p ij. φ i should be correctly read as the potential on the i -th conductor, and hence " p 21 {\displaystyle p_{21}} " is the p due to charge 1 on conductor 2.

  3. Dispersion relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_relation

    Given the dispersion relation, one can calculate the frequency-dependent phase velocity and group velocity of each sinusoidal component of a wave in the medium, as a function of frequency. In addition to the geometry-dependent and material-dependent dispersion relations, the overarching Kramers–Kronig relations describe the frequency ...

  4. Electronic band structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure

    In recent physics literature, a large majority of the electronic structures and band plots are calculated using density-functional theory (DFT), which is not a model but rather a theory, i.e., a microscopic first-principles theory of condensed matter physics that tries to cope with the electron-electron many-body problem via the introduction of ...

  5. Density of states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_of_states

    The density of states related to volume V and N countable energy levels is defined as: = = (()). Because the smallest allowed change of momentum for a particle in a box of dimension and length is () = (/), the volume-related density of states for continuous energy levels is obtained in the limit as ():= (()), Here, is the spatial dimension of the considered system and the wave vector.

  6. Sedimentation potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentation_potential

    Smoluchowski's sedimentation potential is defined where ε 0 is the permitivity of free space, D the dimensionless dielectric constant, ξ the zeta potential, g the acceleration due to gravity, Φ the particle volume fraction, ρ the particle density, ρ o the medium density, λ the specific volume conductivity, and η the viscosity.

  7. Surface charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_charge

    According to Gauss’s law, a conductor at equilibrium carrying an applied current has no charge on its interior.Instead, the entirety of the charge of the conductor resides on the surface, and can be expressed by the equation: = where E is the electric field caused by the charge on the conductor and is the permittivity of the free space.

  8. Diffusion current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_current

    where D is the diffusion coefficient for the electron in the considered medium, n is the number of electrons per unit volume (i.e. number density), q is the magnitude of charge of an electron, μ is electron mobility in the medium, and E = −dΦ/dx (Φ potential difference) is the electric field as the potential gradient of the electric potential.

  9. Nernst–Planck equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nernst–Planck_equation

    The Nernst–Planck equation is a conservation of mass equation used to describe the motion of a charged chemical species in a fluid medium. It extends Fick's law of diffusion for the case where the diffusing particles are also moved with respect to the fluid by electrostatic forces.
