  3. OUTLINE • Review Ionic / Covalent Molecules • Types of Solids (ER 13.2) • Band Theory (ER 13.3-.4) • basic ideas • description based upon free electrons • descriptions based upon nearly-free electrons • ‘Free’ Electron Models (ER 13.5-.7) • Temperature Dependence of Resistivity (ER 14.1)

  4. Ionic Bonds RNave, GSU at http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/chemical/bond.html#c4

  5. Ionic Bonds

  7. Covalent Bonds RNave, GSU at http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/chemical/bond.html#c4

  8. Covalent Bonding SYM ASYM spatial spin ASYM SYM spatial spin space-symmetric tend to be closer

  9. Covalent Bonding not really parallel, but spin-symmetric Stot = 1 Stot = 0 not really anti, but spin-asym space-symmetric tend to be closer

  10. TYPES OF SOLIDS (ER 13.2)CRYSTALINE BINDING • molecular • ionic • covalent • metallic

  11. most organics inert gases O2 N2 H2 Molecular Solids • orderly collection of molecules held together by v. d. Waals • gases solidify only at low Temps • easy to deform & compress • poor conductors

  12. NaCl NaI KCl Ionic Solids • individ atoms act like closed-shell, spherical, therefore binding not so directional • arrangement so that minimize nrg for size of atoms • tight packed arrangement  poor thermal conductors • no free electrons  poor electrical conductors • strong forces  hard & high melting points • lattice vibrations absorb in far IR • to excite electrons requires UV, so ~transparent visible

  13. Ge Si diamond Covalent Solids • 3D collection of atoms bound by shared valence electrons • difficult to deform because bonds are directional • high melting points (b/c diff to deform) • no free electrons  poor electrical conductors • most solids adsorb photons in visible  opaque

  14. Fe Ni Co Metallic Solids config dhalf full • (weaker version of covalent bonding) • constructed of atoms which have very weakly bound outer electron • large number of vacancies in orbital (not enough nrg available to form covalent bonds) • electrons roam around (electron gas ) • excellent conductors of heat & electricity • absorb IR, Vis, UV  opaque
