WHAT DOES FRONTIER ORBITAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

HOMO/LUMO

HOMO and LUMO are acronyms for highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, respectively. The energy difference between the HOMO and LUMO is termed the HOMO–LUMO gap. HOMO and LUMO are sometimes referred to as frontier orbitals. Roughly, the HOMO level is to organic semiconductors what the valence band maximum is to inorganic semiconductors and quantum dots. The same analogy exists between the LUMO level and the conduction band minimum. In organometallic chemistry, the size of the LUMO lobe can help predict where addition to pi ligands will occur.

Definition of frontier orbital in the English dictionary

The definition of frontier orbital in the dictionary is the highest-energy occupied orbital or lowest-energy unoccupied orbital in a molecule. Such orbitals have a large influence on chemical properties.
