Consider a one-dimensional tight binding model of electrons hopping between atoms. Let the distance between atoms be called a, and here let us label the atomic orbital on atom n as In) for n-1,..N (you may assume orthonormality of orbitals, i.e, (n|m) -8nm) Suppose there is an on-site energy є and a hopping matrix element-t. In other words, suppose 〈nlH1m)=ε for n-m and (IH1m)--t for n-m±1. (e) If each atom is monovalent (it donates a single electron) what is the...

4. A particle moves in a periodic one-dimensional potential, V(x a)-V(x); physically, this may represent the motion of non-interacting electrons in a crys- tal lattice. Let us call n), n - 0, +1, t2, particle located at site n, with (n'In) -Sn,Let H be the system Hamiltonian and U(a) the discrete translation operator: U(a)|n) - [n +1). In the tight- binding approximation, one neglects the overlap of electron states separated by a distance larger than a, so that where is...
