1. The Fermi temperature of a substance, TF, is the temperature at which the thermal energy of the substance equals the Fermi energy: k TF = EF, where k is Boltzmann's constant. This can be thought of as the temperature at which thermal effects of a system are comparable to quantum effects due to Fermi statistics (which follow from the Pauli exclusion principle for fermions). (a) Determine the Fermi temperature of copper. (b) For copper at room temperature, do you expect thermal effects to play a significant role in copper's band structure, band gap, etc.? Why or why not?
