Principles of Physics III
Bloch's Theorem states that the wave functions of electrons in a periodic potential can be expressed as a product of a plane wave and a periodic function, reflecting the underlying symmetry of the crystal lattice. This theorem is foundational in understanding electronic band structure, phonon behavior, and how electrons behave in solids, providing insights into their energy states and interactions with lattice vibrations.
congrats on reading the definition of Bloch's Theorem. now let's actually learn it.
