Assertion: atom's electron | /r/AtLocation | the fermi level
Facets:
Source sentences:
text: At nonzero temperature, and for other materials (metals, semimetals, heavily doped semiconductors), the analogy does not hold since an added electron will instead go to the Fermi level on average.
text: The work function is the thermodynamic work that can be obtained by reversibly, isothermally remove an electron from the material to vacuum; this thermodynamic electron goes to the Fermi level on average, not the conduction band edge:
