Can someone please explain the significance of resonance levels that forms when electron collides with atoms. How this resonance levels are different from other levels ?
... close:When two frequencies match together so that the system oscillates at larger amplitudes, we say the system is in resonance.
... in the case of electrons being shot at some atoms, what is the graph that would be plotted? What shape would it have?My doubt is how it is applicable to excited levels.
Resonance in electron impact on atoms refers to the phenomenon where electrons collide with atoms and transfer energy through a resonant process, leading to the excitation or ionization of the atom.
Resonance occurs when the energy of the incoming electron matches the energy difference between two electronic states in the atom, allowing for efficient energy transfer and resulting in the excitation or ionization of the atom.
Studying resonance in electron impact on atoms has various applications, such as understanding atomic and molecular structures and dynamics, developing new technologies for materials processing, and providing insights into chemical reactions.
Yes, resonance in electron impact on atoms can be controlled by adjusting the energy of the incoming electron, the orientation of the atom, and other experimental parameters.
Resonance in electron impact on atoms can be studied through various experimental techniques, such as electron energy loss spectroscopy, electron scattering experiments, and theoretical calculations using quantum mechanical models.
