What is the phenomenon of superconductivity in regards to low temperature, Type I, Type II, high temperature, and Cooper pairs?
Hint:Although the band gap and the density
of states vary with temperature, those
variations are much slower compared to the
exponential factor e^(-Eg/2KT). Please give

Lets consider the vibrational states of a simple diatomic molecule, say N2. We will model it as two identical masses connected by a spring as shown in the figure at the top right.This is a little different from the cart on a spring since there is no wall -- both of the atoms are moving. But if we only look at oscillations of the molecule where the center of mass is not moving, the atoms are moving equally and oppositely. When one is going left, the other goes an equal amount to the right and vice versa. This is like two carts attached to a wall and oscillating equally and oppositely as shown in the lower picture. The only difference is the way we treat the spring. When each atom moves a distance x, the spring between the atoms actually stretches a distance 2x, so the force on each atom is -2kx.
