Quantum Capacitance

Quantum Capacitance

Quantum capacitance (density) is a physical value first introduced by Serge Luryi (1988) to describe the 2D-electronic systems in silicon surfaces and GaAs junctions. This capacitance was defined through standard density of states in the solids. Quantum capacitance could be used in the quantum Hall effect (integer and fractional) investigations as a new approach which uses quantum LC circuit.

Famous quotes containing the word quantum:

    A personality is an indefinite quantum of traits which is subject to constant flux, change, and growth from the birth of the individual in the world to his death. A character, on the other hand, is a fixed and definite quantum of traits which, though it may be interpreted with slight differences from age to age and actor to actor, is nevertheless in its essentials forever fixed.
    Hubert C. Heffner (1901–1985)
