This paper reports the development of a fully 3-D finite-element (FE) design tool for the design of electron guns and collectors called the electron optics simulator (EOS). It is a module of the ...

Rich and Suter diagrams are a very useful tool to explain the electron configurations of all transition elements, and in particular, the s¹ and s0 configurations of the elements Cr, Cu, Nb, Mo, Ru, Rh ...

When the third energy level has 8 electrons, the next 2 electrons go into the fourth energy level. The electrons in the energy level farthest from the nucleus are called valence electrons. Atoms in ...

Scientists observed record-breaking electron mobility — seven times higher than in conventional semiconductors — with a material made from the same elements as quartz and gold.
