Mean square charge

Semiconductor devices ate affected by three kinds of noise. Thermal or Johnson noise is a consequence of the equihbtium between a resistance and its surrounding radiation field. It results in a mean-square noise voltage which is proportional to resistance and temperature. Shot noise, which is the principal noise component in most semiconductor devices, is caused by the random passage of individual electrons through a semiconductor junction. Thermal and shot noise ate both called white noise since their noise power is frequency-independent at low and intermediate frequencies. This is unlike flicker or ///noise which is most troublesome at lower frequencies because its noise power is approximately proportional to /// In MOSFETs there is a strong correlation between ///noise and the charging and discharging of surface states or traps. Nevertheless, the universal nature of ///noise in various materials and at phase transitions is not well understood. 

The simulations to investigate electro-osmosis were carried out using the molecular dynamics method of Murad and Powles [22] described earher. For nonionic polar fluids the solvent molecule was modeled as a rigid homo-nuclear diatomic with charges q and —q on the two active LJ sites. The solute molecules were modeled as spherical LJ particles [26], as were the molecules that constituted the single molecular layer membrane. The effect of uniform external fields with directions either perpendicular to the membrane or along the diagonal direction (i.e. Ex = Ey = E ) was monitored. The simulation system is shown in Fig. 2. The density profiles, mean squared displacement, and movement of the solvent molecules across the membrane were examined, with and without an external held, to establish whether electro-osmosis can take place in polar systems. The results clearly estab-hshed that electro-osmosis can indeed take place in such solutions. 

These fluctuations will affect the motion of charged particles. A major part of the Lamb shift in a hydrogen atom can be understood as the contribution to the energy from the interaction of the electron with these zero point oscillations of the electromagnetic field. The qualitative explanation runs as follows the mean square of the electric and magnetic field intensities in the vacuum state is equal to... 

The Coulomb interaction of the (point) nucleus with the potential Vo, which is also part of the monopole interaction, was neglected in (4.5) because it yields only an offset of the total energy. The subscript u in is introduced to distinguish the radius of the uniformly charged sphere from the usual mean square radius which can be obtained from scattering experiments. 

The electric monopole interaction between a nucleus (with mean square radius k) and its environment is a product of the nuclear charge distribution ZeR and the electronic charge density e il/ 0) at the nucleus, SE = const (4.11). However, nuclei of the same mass and charge but different nuclear states isomers) have different charge distributions ZeR eR ), because the nuclear volume and the mean square radius depend on the state of nuclear excitation R R ). Therefore, the energies of a Mossbauer nucleus in the ground state (g) and in the excited state (e) are shifted by different amounts (5 )e and (5 )g relative to those of a bare nucleus. It was recognized very early that this effect, which is schematically shown in Fig. 4.1, is responsible for the occurrence of the Mossbauer isomer shift [7]. 

On one hand, the large magnitude of the change of the mean-squared nuclear charge radius, A(r ) = (r )e — (r )g, between the excited state and the ground...

Average configuration-dependent physical properties are evaluated for tri- tetra-, and hexafunctional polyethylene stars perturbed by electrostatic repulsion of charges placed at the free chain ends. Configuration-dependent properties evaluated are the probability for a trarts placement, expansion of , the mean-square radius of gyration, asymmetry of the distribution of the chain atoms, and asymmetry of the distribution described by the atoms considered to bear the charges.
