    Statistical Mechanics and the Fermi-Dirac Distribution
    In the context of non-interacting quantum gases, particularly electrons in metals-or semiconductors, the behavior of particle occupation is governed by the Fermi–Dirac distribution function, $f(E)$:
    $$f(E) = \frac{1}{e^{(E - \mu) / k_B T} + 1} \label{eq:fd}$$
    where $E$ is the energy of the single-particle state, $k_B$ …
