Electron Density. Continuing the preceding considerations, calibration to absolute intensity means normalization to the scattering of a single electron , Ie that can be expressed in electron units, [e.u.]. Inevitably a calibration to absolute units involves also a normalization with respect to the irradiated volume V. Thus, for the field of materials science a suitable dimension of the absolute intensity is [I/V] = e.u./nm3 - The intensity measured in the detector is originating from a material with an average electron density of 400 electrons per nanometers cubed . The electron density itself is easily computed from mass density and chemical composition of the material (cf. Sect. 2.2.1).

The concept of mass spectrometry is relatively simple A compound is ionized (ionization method), the ions are separated on the basis of their mass/charge ratio (ion separation method), and the number of ions representing each mass/charge unit is recorded as a spectrum. For instance, in the commonly used electron-impact (El) mode, the mass spectrometer bombards molecules in the vapor phase with a high-energy electron beam and records the result as a spectrum of positive ions, which have been separated on the basis of mass/charge (mlz). ... 

The requirement for continuous production at speed implies that there must be convenient equipment for assessing weight and so ensuring uniformity. Almost always the instrument used for this work is the beta gauge, which records the attenuation of a beam of electrons from a weak radio-active source as it is passed through the coated web. The gauge can be calibrated with samples of known composition and weight, and the results are expressed in terms of mass per unit area . 

Another technical application of y-ray emitters is the determination of the density of various substances. The basis of this application is the fact that absorption of high-energy y rays depends mainly on the electron density of the absorber, i.e. approximately on the mass per unit area, and at constant absorber thickness on the density. Density profiles in closed installations, for example in distillation columns, can also be investigated or controlled in this way. Preferred radiation sources are Co, Cs and Am. 

An electron in a solid behaves as if its mass [CGS units are used in this review the exception is for the tabulation of effective masses, which are scaled by the mass of an electron (m0), and lattice constants and radii associated with trapped charges, which are expressed in angstroms (1A = 10 8 cm)] were different from that of an electron in free space (m0). This effective mass is determined by the band structure. The concept of an effective mass comes from electrical transport measurements in solids. If an electron s motion is fast compared to the lattice vibrations or relaxation, then the important quantity is the band effective mass (mb[eff]). If the electron moves more slowly (most cases of interest) and carries with it lattice distortions, then the (Frohlich) polaron effective mass (tnp[eff]) is appropriate [11]. The known band effective and polaron effective masses for electrons in the silver halides are listed in Table 1. The polaron and band effective masses are related to a...
