Thus the study of defects requires electronic resolutions with continuum range.
The IR (3300 3900 nm) measurements sense flame presence nominally via HCl rovibrational excitation and the UV (310 nm) measurements via OH electronic excitation, although continuum emission is also present.
These are characterized by a continuum of electronic states filled up to a common electron chemical potential, often referred to as the Fermi level, EF.
We introduce a unified two-scale energy functional to describe the electrons and the continuum electrostatic potential of the nano-electronic device.
— Karl O'Doherty (@karlodoherty) March 1, 2013 On the site, LangstoneHuge wrote a review of Lecture On Nothing, which I think she/he was praising more for being short and easy to sleep through than for being a well-delivered performance: Kept my fingers in my ears for the "very loud continuum of electronic sound", which was weirdly pleasurable.
Rob Schwimmer presented a more up-to-date look at keyboard music by way of two recent works of his own, scored for electronic instruments — a Haken Continuum (a flat, touch-sensitive surface played like a keyboard but capable of smooth portamento) and a theremin (on which players produce a supple line by moving their hands through the air) — and recorded sound.
The semiconductor industry (both silicon and compound semiconductor devices, equipment and materials), with its turnover in excess of $200bn per year, has provided a continuum of electronic and optoelectronic performance successes for over 50 years, supported by the continuing improvement in the performance of device design and materials technology.
With the absorption of an X-ray photon, a core electron is excited into unoccupied electronic states or into the vacuum continuum.
He then manipulates them digitally, often with the help of a Continuum Fingerboard, an electronic instrument that allows you to alter a sound's pitch or timbre or amplitude.
This talk will describe some of the mathematical and computational challenges that arise, and outline a sub-linear scaling method for computing the electronic structure of solids at continuum scales.
