  2. Number density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_density

    The number density (symbol: n or ρ N) is an intensive quantity used to describe the degree of concentration of countable objects (particles, molecules, phonons, cells, galaxies, etc.) in physical space: three-dimensional volumetric number density, two-dimensional areal number density, or one-dimensional linear number density.

  3. Electron density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_density

    Spin density is electron density applied to free radicals. It is defined as the total electron density of electrons of one spin minus the total electron density of the electrons of the other spin. One of the ways to measure it experimentally is by electron spin resonance, [14] neutron diffraction allows direct mapping of the spin density in 3D ...

  4. Boltzmann relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_relation

    A simple derivation of the Boltzmann relation for the electrons can be obtained using the momentum fluid equation of the two-fluid model of plasma physics in absence of a magnetic field. When the electrons reach dynamic equilibrium , the inertial and the collisional terms of the momentum equations are zero, and the only terms left in the ...

  5. Charge carrier density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_carrier_density

    Charge carrier density, also known as carrier concentration, denotes the number of charge carriers per volume. In SI units, it is measured in m −3. As with any density, in principle it can depend on position. However, usually carrier concentration is given as a single number, and represents the average carrier density over the whole material.

  6. Total electron content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_electron_content

    TEC plot for the continental USA, made on 2013-11-24. Total electron content (TEC) is an important descriptive quantity for the ionosphere of the Earth. TEC is the total number of electrons integrated between two points, along a tube of one meter squared cross section, i.e., the electron columnar number density.

  7. Electrochemical potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_potential

    It is (in principle) easy to measure whether or not two regions (for example, two glasses of water) have the same electrochemical potential for a certain chemical species (for example, a solute molecule): Allow the species to freely move back and forth between the two regions (for example, connect them with a semi-permeable membrane that lets ...

  8. Electron counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_counting

    For a water molecule (H 2 O), using both neutral counting and ionic counting result in a total of 8 electrons. This figure of the water molecule shows how the electrons are distributed with the covalent counting method. The red ones are the oxygen electrons, and the blue ones are electrons from the hydrogen atoms.

  9. Electron mobility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_mobility

    The electron mobility is defined by the equation: =. where: E is the magnitude of the electric field applied to a material,; v d is the magnitude of the electron drift velocity (in other words, the electron drift speed) caused by the electric field, and
