fonon

listen to the pronunciation of fonon
Türkçe - İngilizce
phonon
The quantum of acoustic or vibrational energy (sound), considered a discrete particle rather than a wave
The quantum of acoustic or vibrational energy (sound), considered a discrete particle
In the lattice vibrations of a crystal, the phonon is a quantum of thermal energy It is given by hf, where h is the Planck constant and f the vibrational frequency
a single quantum of vibrational or elastic energy
Quantized atomic lattice vibration It is the mechanism causing electron pairing in the BCS theory
{i} quantum of sound or vibrational energy
The natural vibrations of a solid's crystal lattice
A quantum of sound, usually observed in a crystal It is to sound exactly what a photon is to light
In solid-state physics, a quantum of lattice vibrational energy. In analogy to a photon (a quantum of light), a phonon is viewed as a wave packet with particlelike properties (see wave-particle duality). The way phonons behave determines or affects various properties of solids. Thermal conductivity, for instance, is explained by phonon interactions. Phonons also provide the basis for understanding superconductivity in certain metals
   A quantum of acoustic energy, the level of which is a function of the frequency of the acoustic  wave  Note:   Phonons in acoustics are  analogous to photons in  electromagnetics The energy of a phonon is usually less than 0 1 eV (electron-volt) and thus is one or two orders of magnitude less than that of a photon   When photons and phonons  interact in semiconductors used in communications systems, undesirable system behavior can occur [From Weik '89]
A quantum of acoustic energy, analogous to the quantum of electromagnetic radiation, the photon Thermal excitations in a crystal or in an elastic continuum can be described as a population of phonons (analogous to blackbody electromagnetic radiation) In highly inhomogeneous solids, a description in terms of phonons breaks down and localized vibrational modes become important
