Talk:Kuzyk quantum gap

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page was voted on for deletion on Jan 16, 2005. The consensus at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/KuzykGap was to keep (6 votes to keep, 1 to delete).

The following text was moved from KuzykLimit, to be merged into Kuzyk gap:

The fundamental limit of the nonlinear susceptibility, a measure of how strongly light interacts with light, is called the Kuzyk Limit. This limit is calculated from quantum mechanics directly using generalized Thomas-Reich-Kuhn sum rules, which are sometimes called The Kuzyk Sum Rules. The gap between the Kuzyk Limit and the best materials ever measured (as of 2004) is called the [Kuzyk Quantum Gap].

[edit] Removed material

I removed the following, because it didn't seem to relate to anything else (or at least not in any way that I can see). These concepts could be reinserted, but probably should not go in the intro and some explanation is needed to show how it relates to the Kuzyk Gap.--Srleffler 07:55, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

The Kuzyk Sum Rules are quantum-mechanical equations that are extensions of the well known Thomas-Reich-Kuhn sum rules, generalized to include initial and final excited states but truncated to a finite number of states.

[edit] Redirects?

I am new to Wikipedia, so I’m not sure how this is done; but, the title of this entry should be “Kuzyk Quantum Gap” and any references to “Kuzyk Sum Rules” or “Kuzyk Limit” should be directed to this page.

That's easily fixed. I'll take care of it in a few minutes.--Srleffler 07:55, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
