Funded Activity Summary
Many-Electron Dynamics and Electronic Structure of Materials Studied by Electron Momentum Spectroscopy. Electron momentum spectroscopy is a technique that resembles playing pool with electrons. This technique, largely developed in Australia, determines the binding energy and velocity distribution of electrons in matter. This distribution, closely related to the quantum mechanical wave function of the electrons, can be compared directly with calculations of the electronic structure. Such a comparison helps establish which theory approaches nature most closely, and thus improves our understanding of the electronic structure. This understanding helps to predict the properties of materials, and hence this knowledge will facilitate the design of materials with desirable properties.Funded Activity Details
