The bandgaps of silicon and gallium arsenide are 1.12 eV and 1.42 eV, respectively. What are the wavelengths of light that you would expect to be emitted from these devices based on direct recombination of holes and electrons? To what “colors” of light do these wavelengths correspond?
Explain the process by which an energy dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDX) spectrum is
generated and the origins of the La and Ka lines for Fe in the EDX shown in Figure 3
below. Why do the Fe La lines have a lower energy than the Ka lines?
By considering the energy of the X-rays measured, discuss whether EDX can be used to
measure whether the iron in an iron oxide is in 2+ or 3+ valence state? Which other
spectroscopy technique in the transmission electron microscope (TEM) is more
appropriate and why?

In another universe, the electron is a spin@3/2 rather than a spin@1/2 particle, but all other physics are the same as in our universe. In this universe what are the atomic numbers of the lightest two inert gases?

The yellow circle represents the nucleus. Point D represents a location beyond the orbitals of this particular atom. Which of the following statements about an electron transitioning among the labeled points is TRUE? с D An electron transitioning from orbital A to orbital B will emit or absorb light with a longer wavelength than an electron transitioning from orbital B to orbital A. O The energy difference between orbitals B and C is bigger than that between orbitals A and B. To transition to a point between orbital A and B, an electron would need to absorb less energy than the difference between the energies of orbital A and B. An electron transitioning from orbital B orbital C would absorb green light. To transition from orbital C to orbital B, an electron must emit light.arrow_forwardUse the Rydberg equation to calculate the wavelength (in nm) of the hydrogen Balmer series line having nouter = 5 and ninner = 2.
