Review: “Particle in rigid 3D box” Today: • Rest of the 3D rigid box • The Hydrogen atom − h2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 ψ ( x, y, z) + V ( x, y, z)ψ ( x, y, z) = Eψ ( x, y, z) + + 2m ∂x2 ∂y 2 ∂z 2 V(x,y,z) = 0 inside; ∞ outside. Final Exam is on Wednesday, Dec. 14, 1:30pm-4pm in G1B20 (our classroom). Allowed materials: One letter paper-sized, handwritten cheat-sheet and a calculator. (No cell-phones, PCs, textbooks, BBQs etc.) Separation of variables approach: ψ(x,y,z) = X(x)Y(y)Z(z) Solutions: c a b π 2h2 π k = n , Ex = n2 , n = 1,2,3.... a 2ma 2 X ( x) = A ⋅ sinkx x , and similar for Y(y) and Z(z). Exam format: Similar to Exam 1- 3 (all bubble; emphasis on understanding concepts) 2D box: Square of the wave function for nx=ny=1 And the total energy is: E = E x + E y + Ez Or for a cube (a=b=c): E = E0 (n x2 + n 2y + nz2 ) , E0 = 100% 0% ny nx Sometimes, there are several solutions with the exact same energy. Such solutions are called ‘degenerate’. 2ma 2 2D box: Square of the wave function of selected excited states ‘Percent’ relative to maximum Degeneracy π 2h 2 Q1: The ground state energy of the 2D box of size L x L is 2E0, where E0 = π2ħ2/(2mL2) is the ground state energy of a 1D box of size L. y L E=E0(nx2+ny2) E= E0(nx2+ny2+nz2) L x What is the energy of the 1st excited state of this 2D box? a)3E0 b)4E0 c) 5E0 d)8E0 Degeneracy of 1 means “non-degenerate” Q2: Imagine a 3D cubic box of sides L x L x L. What is the degeneracy of the ground state and the first excited state? E = E (n 2 + n 2 + n 2 ) 0 x y z – – Why?

Explains fixed energy levels – Problem: still only works for Hydrogen. L • Schrodinger – quantum wave functions – Why? Explains everything! – Problem: None (except that it’s hard to understand) What is Schrodinger’s model of the hydrogen atom? Schrodinger’s Solutions for Hydrogen If you understand the 1D quantum well (and how we went from 1D to 3D), then it is easy for you to understand Schrödinger's hydrogen atom! Electron is cloud of probability whose wave function Ψ(x,y,z,t) is the solution to the Schrodinger equation: − h2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 Ψ( x, y, z, t ) + + 2m ∂x2 ∂y 2 ∂z 2 ∂ + V ( x, y, z)Ψ( x, y, z, t ) = ih Ψ( x, y, z, t ) ∂t # of protons in nucleus Coulomb constant where: 2 V ( x, y , z ) = − V All that’s really different is the potential V(r) ∝ 1/r (Coulomb) r 2 Zke Zke =− 2 r ( x + y 2 + z 2 )1/ 2 OK. Mathematically it is a bit ‘involved,’ For now, focus on the concept and let someone else do the math for you! (Coulomb potential; no time dependence) Can get rid of time dependence and simplify: Equation in 3D, looking for Ψ(x,y,z,t): − h2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 Ψ( x, y, z, t) + + 2m ∂x2 ∂y 2 ∂z 2 ∂ + V ( x, y, z)Ψ( x, y, z, t ) = ih Ψ( x, y, z, t) ∂t Quick note on vector derivatives Laplacian (or ‘Laplace operator’) in cartesian coordinates: ∇2ψ ≡ ∂ 2ψ ∂ 2ψ ∂ 2ψ + + ∂x 2 ∂y 2 ∂z 2 Same thing! Just different coordinates. Since V(x,y,z) not function of time: Ψ ( x, y, z , t ) = ψ ( x, y, z )e − iEt / h Laplacian in spherical coordinates: Eψ ( x, y, z )e − iEt / h Time independent Schrodinger Equation (analogous to 1D): h2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 ∂ 2 − 2 + 2 + 2 ψ ( x, y, z) + V ( x, y, z)ψ ( x, y, z) = Eψ ( x, y, z) 2m ∂x ∂y ∂z ∇2ψ = ∂ ∂ψ 1 ∂ 2 ∂ψ 1 1 ∂ 2ψ r + 2 sin θ + 2 2 2 r ∂r ∂r r sin θ ∂θ ∂θ r sin θ ∂φ 2 3D Schrödinger with Laplacian (coordinate free): − r r r h2 2 r ∇ ψ ( r ) + V ( r )ψ ( r ) = Eψ ( r ) 2m Since potential is spherically symmetric ( V ( r ) = − Zke 2 / r ), easier to solve w/ spherical coords: Q3: z Watch out: Physicist’s convention!

Boundary conditions in terms of r,θ,φ What are the boundary conditions on the wave function ψ in r ? A. ψ must go to 0 at r=0 B. ψ must go to 0 at r=infinity C. ψ at r=infinity must equal to ψ at r=0, but value can be non-zero. D. A and B E. A, B, and C (similar to particle in a 3D box, but now in spherical coordinates) ψ (r ,θ , φ ) = R(r ) f (θ ) g (φ ) Ψ (r , θ , φ , t ) = R (r ) f (θ ) g (φ ) e − iEt / h Q4: r x φ y ψ nlm (r ,θ , φ ) = Rnl (r ) f lm (θ ) g m (φ ) Shape of ψ depends on n, l ,m.

In other words, how many numbers do you need to specify unique wave function? And why? − z In 1D (electron in a wire): Have 1 quantum number (n) In 1D (electron in a wire): Have 1 quantum number (n). Need to specify value of n to know what state electron is in. nπx −iEnt / h 2 Ψ( x, t ) = ψ ( x )e −iEnt / h = sin( )e L L In 3D, now have 3 degrees of freedom (ignore spin): 3 sets of boundary conditions in terms of r,θ,φ 1 ∂ 2 ∂ψ 1 1 ∂ 2ψ ∂ ∂ψ sin + + θ r ∂θ r 2 sin 2 θ ∂φ 2 r 2 ∂r ∂r r 2 sin θ ∂θ Comparing H atom & Infinite Square Well Infinite Square Well: (1D) • V(x) = 0 if 0<x<L ∞ otherwise ∞ ψ (r ,θ , φ ) = R(r ) f (θ ) g (φ ) Once we have ψ(r,θ,ϕ) we also know the time-dependent solution: Ψ (r , θ , φ , t ) = R (r ) f (θ ) g (φ ) e −iEt / h Done! r ∞ 0 L x • Energy eigenstates: n 2π 2 h 2 En = Use separation of variables: H Atom: (3D) • V(r) = -ke2/r 2mL2 • Wave functions: ψ n ( x) = L2 sin( nLπx ) Ψ n ( x, t ) = ψ n( x )e − iEnt / h • Energy eigenstates: mk 2 e 4 2h 2 n 2 • Wave functions: En = − ψ nlm (r ,θ , φ ) = Rnl (r ) f lm (θ ) g m (φ ) Ψ nlm (r , θ , φ , t ) = ψ nlm (r , θ , φ )e − iEnt / h : generalized Laguerre polynomials : spherical harmonic functions Answers to clicker questions Q1: C; nx=1, ny=2 or nx=2 ny=1s Q2: C Ground state = 1,1,1 : E1 = 3E0 1st excited state: 2,1,1 1,2,1 1,1,2 : all same E2 = 6 E0 Q3: B ψ must be ‘normalizable’, so needs to go to zero at r∞ (Also makes sense physically: not probable to find electron there) NOTE: ψ(0)=const. is sufficient!
