... The classical (Rayleigh-Jeans) theory works okay for longer wavelengths but predicts that the intensity should continue to increase as the wavelength decreases. Planck assumed that an atom oscillating at frequency f can only have certain energies given by E = nhf. He quantized the energy of an atom, ...

... The wave function oscillates in space when the total energy E > V(r), the local potential energy. However when E < V(r) solutions of the TISE require the wave function to decay or grow exponentially. Clearly if the particle is to remain bound inside its well, its wave function must only decay into t ...
