pseudopotential

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
pseudopotential [‚sü·də·pə′ten·chəl]
(solid-state physics)
The common effective potential for electrons in a crystal lattice that is calculated in the orthogonalized plane-wave method and in the pseudopotential method, and that is relatively weak (except for diffracted electrons) because the electrons are moving rapidly past the atoms in the lattice.

More ab initio theories directly calculate the full electronic states of the system, typically calculating the contribution of each atom to the electronic potential self-consistently within density functional or pseudopotential theory (see for example A.

Approximate methods are treated next, starting with spin separation in the Dirac equation, and proceeding to the Foldy-Wouthuysen, Douglas-Kroll, and related transformations, Breit-Pauli and direct perturbation theory, regular approximations, matrix approximations, and pseudopotential and model potential methods.
