The elements that lie between group 2 and group 13 are often referred to as the d-block elements. In this topic, we will concern ourselves with the elements of the third period: scandium to zinc. The ...

Research has explored the mechanisms by which scandium enhances electron emission, although challenges such as nonuniform emission and inconsistent longevity remain barriers to their widespread ...

Additionally, research has provided updated electron affinity values for elements like scandium and yttrium, with measurements of 0.179378(22) eV and 0.31129(22) eV, respectively[2]. These ...
