The chemical potential is defined as an intensive energy function to represent the energy level of a chemical substance in terms of the partial molar quantity of free enthalpy of the substance. For open systems permeable to heat, work, and chemical substances, the chemical potential can be used more conveniently to describe the state of the systems than the usual extensive energy functions. This chapter discusses the characteristics of the chemical potential of substances in relation with various thermodynamic energy functions. In a mixture of substances the chemical potential of an individual constituent can be expressed in its unitary part and mixing part.

The unitary energy of surface metal ions of a metallic solid, referred to the energy level of the gaseous metal ion at the position of the outer potential outside the solid metal, may be derived from the metal sublimation energy, the ionization energy of the metal atom, and the work function of the metal. This unitary energy, of the surface metal ions is essentially equivalent to the energy,... 

In the preceding sections we have shown that the n-particle distribution function of ideal Fermi gas is expressed in terms of a simple determinant form (Eq. 14.44). A very analogous finding has long been known in the theory for random matrix which was initially introduced to describe the statistical distribution of nuclear energy levels [11]. Let us represent the eigenvalues of random unitary matrices U N) as exp iOj) with 1 < < and dj R. For unfolded eigenphases defined by... 

Further details of how to obtain the unitary matrix U are unimportant here. It suffices to recognize25 that any unitary transformation of CMOs leaves a determinantal wavefunction and density unchanged, and thus has no effect on the energy or other properties that could be calculated with this wavefunction or density. Thus, at the HF (or DFT) level we can rigorously write...

The unitary level of the surface ion referred to the standard gaseous ion S sTD) at the outer potential of the semiconductor is represented by the unitary real potential, Ug. (= - 7s). This unitary real potential is equivalent to the sum of the standard free enthalpy AG of sublimation of the semiconductor, the ionization energy Is of the gaseous atom S, and the electron energy sy at the upper edge level of the valence band as shown in Eqn. 3-14 ...

It is interesting to point out the similarity between the proton level diagram of aqueous solutions and the electron level diagram of semiconductors as shown in Fig. 3-20. The ionic dissodation energy (1.03 eV) of water molecule H2O to form an ion pair of H30 -0H is the energy gap between the imitary acidic proton level and the unitary basic proton level this may correspond to the band gap of semiconductors. The concentration product, of the addic... 

An electron spin can relax by coupling with a neighboring electron spin. Therefore, when a paramagnetic metal ion interacts with a second paramagnetic metal ion, the electron relaxation rates of the two metal ions may be dramatically affected. If Si and S2 are the two spins coupled by a scalar interaction, new spin levels will be established due to the interaction, with total S varying in unitary steps from Si — S2I to Si + S2. The energies of these spin levels are given by )... 

In this section we will consider the case of a multi-level electronic system in interaction with a bosonic bath [288,289], We will use unitary transformation techniques to deal with the problem, but will only focus on the low-bias transport, so that strong non-equilibrium effects can be disregarded. Our interest is to explore how the qualitative low-energy properties of the electronic system are modified by the interaction with the bosonic bath. We will see that the existence of a continuum of vibrational excitations (up to some cut-off frequency) dramatically changes the analytic properties of the electronic Green function and may lead in some limiting cases to a qualitative modification of the low-energy electronic spectrum. As a result, the I-V characteristics at low bias may display metallic behavior (finite current) even if the isolated electronic system does exhibit a band gap. The model to be discussed below...
