Ionization Energy Theory II

In this second volume, experimental data from different fields (physics, chemistry and biology) are systematically explored using the ionization energy theory (IET) to construct and explain the relevant microscopic physical processes and mechanisms. In particular, physical, chemical and biological systems are linked to quantum mechanics and discussed in a truly interdisciplinary style. Volume II is designed to apply IET to tackle the following experimental results-(1) transport phenomena in unconventional superconductors, carbon nanotubes, topological insulators, Pancharatnam (quantum Hall) metals and strange metals, (2) gas sensing, (3) growth of quantum dots and graphene, (4) doping-dependent Bragg angle, (5) Raman phonon shifts, (6) Earth's inner core solidification, (7) corrosion, water-molecule splitting and peptide-bond formation, (8) polymerase-beta DNA replication, (9) ion selection in cation channels, and much more... All physical mechanisms and processes are exposed and compared with experiments with easy-to-follow steps to enhance the reader's critical and creative thinking, and comprehension of the subject matter, guided by IET. Self-contained introduction to IET is also provided such that the reader can treat this volume as a stand-alone book focused on applications. This book is suitable for both beginners and experts as it teaches the strategies and tricks to interpret and discuss their experiments in a new way, and consistently within IET (and other established theories).
