Example: Duralumin (Cu, Mn, and Mg) in Car, Cu in electrical wire, Ag and Au as jewelry Common properties: physical strength, density, electrical and thermal conductivity Optical (visible) reflectivity Explanation of many physical properties by assuming cloud of free-electrons all over sample Most of optical properties can be explained but with a limit. 4.2 Conduction electrons •Na gas; a simple collection of free atoms. Each atom has 11 electrons orbiting around the nucleus. 11Na: 1s2 2s22p6 3s1 Core electrons Valence electron 1 valence el. loosely bound to the rest of the system(=Na1+). can explain ordinary chemical reaction. •Na atoms to form a metal bcc structure (section 1.7) d = 3.7 Å d 4.2 Conduction electrons (p138) •Na atoms to form a metal. bcc structure (section 1.7) Fig. 4.1 overlap of the 3s in solid sodium two atoms overlap slightly valence el. can hop from one to the neighboring atom move around freely all over the crystal. conduction electrons in a crystal !! Naming since they carriers electrical current in an electric field. Cf) core electrons do not give electrical current. N=concentration M’=atomic weight, Z = atomic valence (1+, 2+,..), m =density of the substance N Zv m N A M . (4.1) 4.3 Free electron gas (p140) econd. is completely free, except for a potential at the surface. Free motion except occasional reflection from the surface which confines econd.. Like gas!! So called free electron gas! How about interaction between 1) econd. and ecore.? a) Strong coulomb attraction between econd. and core ion is compensated by repulsive potential due to array of core ion by quantum effect. b) econd. spend tiny time near core ion. E Ek E p c) Short-range screened coulomb potential rather than a long-range pure coulomb potential. interaction between 2) conduction electrons themselves? Pauli exclusion principle : = 1(a)+2(b) 1) electrons of parallel or spins tend to stay away. 2) electron pair having opposite spin can stay together Each electron is surrounded by a hole” The hole with a radius of about 1 Å. The hole move with each electron. Interaction between two specific electron is always screened by the other electrons. very low interaction between the two electrons. Free electron gas vs ordinary gas 1) charged, i.e. like plasma 2) N is very large N~1023 cm-3 while ordinary gas ~ 1019 cm-3 Jellium model : ions form a uniform jelly into which econd. move around 4.4 electrical conductivity (p142) I V R (4.2) Law of electrical conduction in metal : Ohm’s law J: current density per area, E=electrical field 1 I V ρL (4.4) J , E , and R , (4.3) σ ρ A L A Substitute VA I ρL R ρL (4.3) A J σE (4.5) into (4.2) I V A ρL Substitute J and E (4.3) and (4.4) J E Electric field accelerates econd.

The hall effect Fig. 4.11 Origin of the Hall field and Hall effect Electric current Jx flowing in x-axis and magnetic field Bz applied normal to the wire in the Z-axis. Before B applied: E flowing in (+) x-direction, the conduction electrons are drifting with a velocity v in (-) x-direction. After B applied: Lorentz force F ev B causes the electrons to bend downward. Electrons accumulate on the lower surface, producing a net (-) charge. Simultaneously a net (+) charge appears on the upper surface, because of the deficiency of electrons. This combination (+) and (-) surface charges create a downward E (called hall field). Evaluate the Hall field The Lorentz force: FL evx B E created by the surface charges FH which opposes FL. The accumulation process continues until the Hall force completely cancels the FL.
