Physics: Why do we describe light by referring to its wavelength, but microwaves and radar pulses by referring to their frequency?

In physics, the description of the properties of light generally refers to its wavelength (nm), while in the range of microwaves and radio waves we refer to the frequency of a signal (e.g. kHz or...

James Hernandez

t is the hopping energy between carbon-carbon atoms, a constant. phi is not necessarily 'any value we like' but it is the projection betwee the wave number k and the lattice constant.

It depends on what you are studying. the hopping terms may vary upon the introduction of external fields.

Physics-wise, it means that we assume that the wave functions are orthogonal during hopping.

If you will, kindly read this publication attached:
