Problem 9.20(a) Show that the skin depth in a poor conductor (σ << we) is (2/0)√√√ε/μ (inde-pendent of frequency). Find the skin depth (in meters) for (pure) water. (Use thestatic values of ε, μ, and σ; your answers will be valid, then, only at relativelylow frequencies.)(b) Show that the skin depth in a good conductor (σ » we) is λ/2л (where λ is thewavelength in the conductor). Find the skin depth (in nanometers) for a typicalmetal (σ 107 (2 m)¯¹) in the visible range (w≈ 10¹5/s), assuming € ≈ €0 andμ≈μo. Why are metals opaque?(c) Show that in a good conductor the magnetic field lags the electric field by 45°,and find the ratio of their amplitudes. For a numerical example, use the "typicalmetal" in part (b).

The carrier distributions in the conduction and valence bands were noted to peak at energies close to the band edges. (Refer to carrier distribution in Fig. 1-20.) Using Boltzmann approximation, show that the energy at which the carrier distribution peaks is Ec+kT/2 and E-kT/2 for the conduction and valence bands, respectively.

Consider two straight wires lying on the x-axis, separated by a gap of 4 nm. The potential energy in the gap is about 3 eV higher than the energy of a conduction electron in either wire. What is the probability that a conduction electron in one wire arriving at the gap will pass through the gap into the other wire? [Hint: Assume that the gap is very wide. Then, a right-moving electron incoming on the gap partially passes through the left edge of the gap and loses its amplitude exponentially fast. By the time it reaches the right edge, its reflection from the right edge can be neglected. Most of the particle wave at that point simply comes out of the gap and arries on in the second wire.]
