Electron scattering

Electron scattering occurs when electrons are displaced from their original trajectory. This is due to the electrostatic forces within matter or, if an external magnetic field is present, the electron may be deflected by the Lorentz force. This scattering typically happens with solids such as metals, semiconductors and insulators; and is a limiting…
