On relativistic energy band corrections in the presence of periodic potentials (Q1110791): Difference between revisions

From authors' abstract: A previously developed formalism to compute relativistic corrections of bound state energies for spin-1/2 particles is applied to relativistic corrections of energy bounds of one- dimensional periodic Hamiltonians. We explicitly describe Floquet theory for periodic Dirac operators on the line. Extensions including impurity potentials and/or \(\nu\geq 2\) dimensions are straightforward and sketched at the end.
