Introduction to Chemistry
... Learning Objectives (from Zumdahl Resource Guide): (3-4 days lecture/discussion) To characterize electromagnetic radiation in terms of wavelength, frequency, and speed. To introduce the concept of quantized energy. To show that light has both wave and particulate properties. To describe how diffract ...

Quantum Correlations with Metastable Helium Atoms
... Second-order correlations were first demonstrated in the famous Hanbury Brown and Twiss (HBT) experiment (3). Conversely, a highly coherent light source such as a laser will exhibit no bunching, with a uniform arrival-time probability for pairs, triplets, and larger groupings of photons; this indica ...
