What Does CCTM Stand For?
CCTM stands for Coupled Channel Transition Matrix In Atom Surface Scattering
CCTM, or Coupled Channel Transition Matrix in Atom Surface Scattering, refers to a theoretical framework used to describe the scattering of atoms off surfaces. This approach employs a coupled channel method to analyze how incoming atomic beams interact with surface potentials, allowing for a detailed understanding of the transition probabilities and dynamic processes involved in the scattering event. CCTM is particularly useful in studying surface reactions, adsorption phenomena, and the quantum interaction between atoms and solid surfaces.
