What is Quantum Free Electron Theory Explained about?
Sommerfeld developed quantum free electron theory in 1928 by applying quantum mechanics to free electrons in metals. This theory recognizes that electron energy levels are quantized and that the Pauli exclusion principle restricts how electrons fill these levels. In contrast to classical free electron theory, quantum theory holds that only a fraction of electrons can gain energy as they are restricted to distinct energy levels. The Fermi-Dirac distribution describes the probability that an energy level is o
