Equation in pink:

I was absent so I was going through the slides and I saw that equation. There isn't a derivation shown. Do you guys have any ideas?

What course is this?

What do the symbols mean?

This is for solid state physics.

n0 represents the number of electrons in a semiconductor. p0 represents the number of holes in a semi conductor.

NA represents the number of positive (acceptor) ions. ND represents the number of negative (donor) ions.

ni=pi=n0=p0 in an instrinsic semiconductor.
 
Maybe you could start with the density of states.
 
If you Google "carriers doped semiconductor", 7 out of the top 7 results will lead you to a derivation. I stopped counting at that point. :biggrin: http://ecee.colorado.edu/~bart/book/extrinsi.htm is the first.

Thread 'Stability of persistent currents in superconductors regardless of temperature'

From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...

Thread 'Instantaneous dipole moment and orbitals'

Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
