What is the Fermi-Dirac statistics law?
The Fermi-Dirac statistics is a law of quantum mechanics that describes the distribution of fermions (particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons) over different energy states. According to this principle, no two fermions can occupy the same quantum state simultaneously, a key component of Pauli's exclusion principle. This statistical method is essential for understanding the behavior of electrons in solids and the properties of metals and semiconductors.
