For ideal both phases – no lateral interactions, homogeneous surface – the composition of a surface phase for a binary liquid system in contact with solid surface is given by a classic Everett isotherm equation (being a simple analogue of Langmuir equation), where the components are interchangeable (i.e. "1" may be exchanged to "2") without ...
The langmuir (symbol: L) is a unit of exposure (or dosage) to a surface (e.g. of a crystal) and is used in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) surface physics to study the adsorption of gases. It is a practical unit, and is not dimensionally homogeneous, and so is used only in this field. It is named after American physicist Irving Langmuir.
Plasma oscillations, also known as Langmuir waves (after Irving Langmuir), are rapid oscillations of the electron density in conducting media such as plasmas or metals in the ultraviolet region. The oscillations can be described as an instability in the dielectric function of a free electron gas. The frequency depends only weakly on the ...
In an unmagnetized plasma for the high frequency or low electron density limit, i.e. for = (/) / or / where ω pe is the plasma frequency, the wave speed is the speed of light in vacuum. As the electron density increases, the phase velocity increases and the group velocity decreases until the cut-off frequency where the light frequency is equal ...

The Langmuir-Rideal mechanism is often, incorrectly, attributed to Dan Eley as the Eley-Rideal mechanism. [5] The actual Eley-Rideal mechanism, studied in the thesis of Dan Eley and proposed by Eric Rideal in 1939, was the reaction between a chemisorbed and a physisorbed molecule. [ 6 ]
