Power law nature in electron solid interaction
  Monte carlo simulation of paths of a large number of impinging electrons in a multi-layered solid allows to define area of spreading electrons (A) to capture overall behavior of the solid. This parameter 'A' follows power law with electron energy. Further, change in critical energies, which are minimum energies lost corresponding to various electrons, as a function of variation in lateral distance also follows power law nature. This power law behavior could be an indicator of how strong self-organization a solid has which may be used in monitoring efficiency of device fabrication.
