  2. Crystal field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_field_theory

    The crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) is the stability that results from placing a transition metal ion in the crystal field generated by a set of ligands. It arises due to the fact that when the d -orbitals are split in a ligand field (as described above), some of them become lower in energy than before with respect to a spherical ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_density_wave

    Maki's theory lacked a sharp threshold field and Bardeen only gave a phenomenological interpretation of the threshold field. [25] However, a 1985 paper by Krive and Rozhavsky [ 26 ] pointed out that nucleated solitons and antisolitons of charge ± q generate an internal electric field E* proportional to q/ε .

  4. Goldstone boson - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldstone_boson

    The field can be redefined to give a real scalar field (i.e., a spin-zero particle) θ without any constraint by ϕ = v e i θ {\displaystyle \phi =ve^{i\theta }} where θ is the Nambu–Goldstone boson (actually v θ {\displaystyle v\theta } is) and the U (1) symmetry transformation effects a shift on θ , namely

    Crystal field diagram for octahedral low-spin d 5 Crystal field diagram for octahedral high-spin d 5. According to crystal field theory, the d orbitals of a transition metal ion in an octahedal complex are split into two groups in a crystal field. If the splitting is large enough to overcome the energy needed to place electrons in the same ...

  6. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle-resolved...

    A view through the window of an ultrahigh vacuum chamber for angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The crystal holder with integrated e-beam heating is attached to a xyz+theta manipulator on top, and by a silver braid to a cryocooler on the bottom. The lens of the electron analyzer and UV source capillary are visible on the right.

  7. Polyhedral skeletal electron pair theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhedral_skeletal...

    In chemistry the polyhedral skeletal electron pair theory (PSEPT) provides electron counting rules useful for predicting the structures of clusters such as borane and carborane clusters. The electron counting rules were originally formulated by Kenneth Wade , [ 1 ] and were further developed by others including Michael Mingos ; [ 2 ] they are ...

  8. Jahn–Teller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jahn–Teller_effect

    The Jahn–Teller effect (JT effect or JTE) is an important mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in molecular and solid-state systems which has far-reaching consequences in different fields, and is responsible for a variety of phenomena in spectroscopy, stereochemistry, crystal chemistry, molecular and solid-state physics, and materials science.

  9. Ligand field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_field_theory

    John Stanley Griffith and Leslie Orgel [6] championed ligand field theory as a more accurate description of such complexes, although the theory originated in the 1930s with the work on magnetism by John Hasbrouck Van Vleck. Griffith and Orgel used the electrostatic principles established in crystal field theory to describe transition metal ions ...
