Chapter 18, Problem 2P Problem Electron Surface Levels for a Weak Periodic Potential The method of Chapter 9 can be used to investigate electronic surface levels. Consider a semi- infinite crystal with a plane surface, perpendicular to a reciprocal lattice vector K (crystal surfaces are parallel to lattice planes). Taking the x-axis to lie along K and the origin to be a Bravais lattice point, to a rough approximation we can represent the potential of the semi- infinite crystal by V(r) = U(r), X Step-by-step solution There is no solution to this problem yet.
