WordDefinition
electron shellnoun(physics) The collective states of all electrons in an atom having the same principal quantum number (visualized as an orbit in which the electrons move).
quantum statenoun(quantum mechanics) Any of the possible states of a quantum mechanical system.
zero-point energynoun(physics, quantum mechanics) The lowest possible energy of a given quantum mechanical system.
landau levelnoun(physics) Any of the discrete energy values that represent the only cyclotron orbits that a charged particle can occupy in a magnetic field, as a result of Landau quantization.
electron numbernoun(physics) The number of electrons in an atom or ion
quantum numbernoun(quantum mechanics) One of certain integers or half-integers that specify the state of a quantum mechanical system (such as an electron in an atom).
electron configurationnoun(physics, chemistry) The arrangement of electrons in an atom, molecule, or other physical structure like a crystal.
electron voltnoun(physics) A unit for measuring the energy of subatomic particles; the energy equal to that attained by an electron moving through a potential difference of one volt. Equivalent to 1.6022 × 10⁻¹⁹ joules.
ground statenoun(physics) The stationary state of lowest energy of a particle or system of particles.
bandnounA strip of material used for strengthening or coupling.
ground levelnoun(often attributive) The level of the ground, the surface of the earth.
fermi energynoun(physics) The highest energy of a particle that is part of a many-particle system of identical fermions in its ground state.
vibrational energynoun(physics) The energy in a vibrating system, otherwise at rest; especially that in a molecule due to the vibrations of its atoms

quantum leapnoun(figurative) An abrupt, extreme change.
eigenstatenoun(physics) A dynamic quantum mechanical state whose wave function is an eigenvector that corresponds to a physical quantity.
occupation numbernoun(physics) The numerical extent to which a quantum state is filled (in a system of many, identical quantum particles)
hole statenoun(physics) a vacant electron energy state near the top of the energy band of a solid; the movement of electrons between such states is the basis of electrical conduction
particle energynoun(physics) The sum of a particle's potential energy and kinetic energy
quantized electronic structurenoun(physics) Any material that confines electrons in such a small space that their wavelike behaviour becomes important and their properties are strongly modified by quantum mechanical effects; examples include atoms and layered semiconductor devices.
