§28.1 The Wave-Particle Duality
Interference and diffraction experiments show that light
behaves like a wave. The photoelectric effect, the Compton
effect, and pair production demonstrate that light behaves
like a particle.

Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
Consider a double slit
experiment in which only one
photon at a time leaves the
light source. After a long time,
the screen will show a typical
interference pattern (c).
Even though there is only one
photon emitted at a time, we
cannot determine which slit it
will pass through nor where it
will land on the screen.

Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
The intensity pattern on the screen is representative of the
probability that a photon will land in a given location
(higher intensity = higher probability).
For an EM wave IE2, so E2 probability of a photon
striking the screen at a given location. For an EM, wave E
represents the wave function.

§28.2 Matter Waves
If a wave (EM radiation) can behave like a particle, might a
particle act like a wave?
The answer is yes. If a beam of electrons with appropriate
momentum is incident on a sample of material, a
diffraction pattern will be evident.

Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
A beam of electrons may be used in a double slit experiment
instead of a light beam. If this is done, a typical interference
pattern will be produced on the screen indicating electrons
act like waves.
If a detector is placed to try to determine which of the two
slits the electron goes through, the interference pattern
disappears indicating the electron now behaves like a
particle.

§28.3 Electron Microscope
The resolution of a light microscope is limited by diffraction
effects. The smallest structure that can be resolved is
about half the wavelength of light used by the microscope.
Copyright © 2008 – The McGraw-Hill Companies s.r.l.
12
Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
An electron beam can be produced with much smaller
wavelengths than visible light, allowing for resolution of
much smaller structures.

§28.5 Wave Functions for a
Confined Particle
A particle confined to a region of space will have quantized
energy levels.

22
Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
Consider a particle in a box of width L that has impenetrable
walls, that is, the particle can never leave the box.
Since the particle cannot be found outside of the box, its
wave function must be zero at the walls. This is analogous
to a standing wave on a string.

Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
If a container has walls of finite height, a particle in the box
will have quantized energy levels, but the number of bound
states (E < 0 ) will be finite.
In this situation the wave functions of the particle in the box
extend past the walls of the container. This means there is a
nonzero probability that the particle can “tunnel” its way
through the walls and escape the box.

§28.6 The Hydrogen Atom: Wave
Functions and Quantum Numbers
In the quantum picture of the atom the electron does not
orbit the nucleus. Quantum mechanics can be used to
determine the allowed energy levels and wave functions for
the electrons.
The wave function allows the determination of the
probability of finding the electron in a given region of space.

The spectrum of hydrogen can only be fully explained if the
electron has an intrinsic spin. It is useful to compare this to
the Earth spinning on its axis. This cannot be truly what is

§28.7 The Pauli Exclusion Principle
The Pauli Exclusion Principle says no two electrons in an
atom can have the same set of quantum numbers. An
electron’s state is fully described by four quantum numbers
n, l ,ml, and ms.

In an atom:
A shell is the set of electron states with the same
quantum number n.
A subshell is a unique combination of n and l. A
subshell is labeled by its value of n and quantum
number l by using spectroscopic notation.

37
Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
Each subshell consists of one or more orbitals specified
by the quantum numbers n, l, and ml. There are 2l+1
orbitals in each subshell.
The number of electron states in a subshell is 2(2l+1),
and the number of states in a shell is 2n2.

§28.8 Electron Energy Levels in a
Solid
An atom in isolation will only be able to emit photons of
energy E that correspond to the difference in energies
between the energy levels in the atom (a line spectrum).
When atoms are not in isolation, the wave functions overlap
which causes the energy levels to split. As a result, a solid
(a large collection of atoms close together) will emit a
continuous spectrum.

Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
In a solid, because of the
large number of atoms (N)
present, each energy level
becomes a band of N
closely spaced energy
levels. Solids also show
band gaps where there
are no allowed electron
energy levels.

A material is a conductor if

state filled at T= 0 is in the
middle of the band (the
band is only partially filled).

If electrons fill their allowed states right to the top of the
band, the material is either a semiconductor or an

An electron can go to a higher energy level by the
absorption of a photon.
When an electron is in an excited state, it can go into a
lower energy level by the spontaneous emission a photon.
An electron in an excited state can also go into a lower
energy level by the stimulated emission of a photon.

Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
A photon of energy E can stimulate the emission of a
photon (by interacting with the excited electron). The
emitted photon will have the same energy, phase, and
momentum of the stimulating photon.

53
Fisica Generale - Alan Giambattista, Betty McCarty Richardson
Typically the excited states of electrons have lifetimes of
about 10-8 seconds. To make a laser, the material must have
metastable states with lifetimes of about 10-3 seconds. This
allows for a population inversion in which more electrons
are in a higher energy state rather than in a lower energy
state.
