We have been shown that the Energy versus K curve has band gaps, and at the brillouin zone is where the standing waves occur.We were also shown the the mass is equal to h^2 divided by the gradient of this graph,but i have no idea what the negative effect mass actually means. Everything i have found on the net seems very complicated compared to what we are studying.Can anyone explain this concept to me?
