Each time the bin i is reached one updates = The energy of this second band is: \(E_2(k) =E_g-\dfrac{\hbar^2k^2}{2m^{\ast}}\). The density of states of a free electron gas indicates how many available states an electron with a certain energy can occupy. In materials science, for example, this term is useful when interpreting the data from a scanning tunneling microscope (STM), since this method is capable of imaging electron densities of states with atomic resolution. The density of states is directly related to the dispersion relations of the properties of the system. phonons and photons). In more advanced theory it is connected with the Green's functions and provides a compact representation of some results such as optical absorption.
