Hollow Metal

From the post "Shaking In The Infra Red" dated 24 Dec 2018, we have for the case of iron, Fe,
metallic bond size of,

aψ=126pm

from which

fosc=c2π(1261012)=6.6946e13Hz

If we were to deliver energy by the impact of electrons,

Iosc=qefosc=1.602176565e-196.6946e13=1.07259e-5A10.7μA

What will happen?  What is the nature of fosc resonance?

And for aluminium Al,

fosc=c2π(1431012)=6.2841e13Hz

Iosc=qefosc=1.602176565e-196.2841e13=1.007e-5A10.1μA

Does the metal turn transparent when Iosc passes through it?  It is difficult to image the metal turning red hot at such low current level.  With a hole in the middle of each constituent atom, the metal may just be hollow.

Good night...
