Question:We’ve been doing E(k) versus k diagrams since Datta Chp01. Why all this now? What happened to conservation of Energy as the starting point? What has changed?
Answer:Dresselhaus uses correct Bloch wave functions to describe the electrons. Datta uses travelling waves. This is discussed in Datta page 11. Therefore we must include the symmetry of the polyacetlyene, graphene, etc. lattice in our wave functions. That’s what finding the reciprocal space k is about.
