Theory
In the general case 2D-density of states in a solid could be defined by the following:
- , (1)
where is a current carrier's effective mass in a solid, is the electron mass, and is a dimensionless parameter which considers the zone structure of a solid. So, the quantum capacitance can be defined as follows:
- , (2)
where - the ‘‘ideal value’’ of quantum capacitance at and another ideal quantum capacitance:
- , (3)
where dielectric constant, fine structure constant and Compton wave length of electron, first defined by Yakymakha (1994) ) in the spectroscopic investigations of the silicon MOSFETs.

Famous quotes containing the word theory:
“Frankly, these days, without a theory to go with it, I can’t see a painting.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
“If my theory of relativity is proven correct, Germany will claim me as a German and France will declare that I am a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German and Germany will declare that I am a Jew.”
—Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
“It is not enough for theory to describe and analyse, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
