Department of Electronics and Communications Engineering East West University Semester- Spring 2017 Course outline for PHY209 Course Course Code : PHY209 Course Title : Engineering Physics II (Introductory Quantum Physics) Prerequisite : Students are expected to have clear understanding of 2nd order partial differential equation and their solutions, special functions viz. Bessel function, Legendre polynomial, Hermite polynomial, Laguerre polynomial, erf etc. They should have good grasp on linear algebra especially on matrices and their eigen values. They should have been covered in MAT205. Some programming ideas in C/C++/FORTRAN is also needed. Some basic ideas on MATLAB will be an added advantage but is not a must. Follow Up Course : ETE219, EEE308 Credit Hours :3 Class Time : Section Day Time Room 5 SR 0830-1000 215 Make-up/ extra class: Make-up/extra class, if needed, will be suitably arranged. Course Instructor : Mahmud Hassan (MH) Email : [email protected] Office : Room 459 Phone : 175 Office Hours : Day Course Objective Time S 1015-1315 M 1400-1500 T 1515-1615 W 1400-1500 R 1015-1315 : This is an introductory course to quantum mechanics physics and aims to cover general formulation of quantum mechanics. This course aims in giving the students clear idea on state vectors and quantum states, difference between classical and quantum pictures of waves and particles, uncertainty principle and its use, Schrödinger equation and its solutions for some simplified cases. Brief ideas on spins, qbits and quantum computing will be introduced also. Course Outcome : When completed students are expected to clear understanding on the difference of laws of nature for classical and quantum world. They are expected to have technical skills to solve Schrödinger equation for simplified systems and calculate the expectation value of important observables calculate the probabilities of some quantum mechanical transitions. Course Contents : 1. Birth of Quantum mechanics- Black body radiation, photoelectric effect, stable atomfailure of quantum mechanics, introduction of quantum mechanics. (1-2 Lectures). 2. Quantum theory of radiation –Photoelectric effect, Compton effect, x-rays. (1-2 Lectures). 3. Wave particle duality – de Broglie waves, wave function and probability, particle diffraction, uncertainty principle, phase and group velocities(3-4 lectures). 4. Wave equation :. Schrödinger wave equation, operators, expectation values, probabilities, square well potential, tunneling (5-6 Lectures). 5. Operator algebra – Hilbert space, kets and bras, observables, momentum and position operators, measurements and uncertainty, time evolution and Schrödinger equation, Schrödinger picture, Heisenberg picture and interaction picture, Harmonic oscillator, Schrödinger equation for harmonic oscillator, solution using operators, creation and annihilation operators, Fourier transform (10-12 Lectures). 6. Quantum computing- Spin, qbits, teleportation, encryption (1-2 Lectures). Text books :Quantum mechanics text books vary a lot in the way the topics are presented. There is no single book that covers this course entirely. We will mainly follow two books 1) Quantum Mechanics: Concepts and Applications, 2nd Edition by Nouredine Zettili, Chapters 1-5 2) Quantum mechanics for Electrical Engineers by Dennis M. Sullivan, Chapters 1-4, 6, 11. The second book can be accesses online from university IP using the following link: http://www.wileyindia.com/Wiley_Online_Resources/UGC%20Bangladesh/ UGC%20Bangladesh.html Besides, for the first few lectures the following book might be useful: Concepts of Modern Physics (6th Edition) by Arthur Beiser. Exam Dates : Section Term 1 Term 2 Term 3 5 16 February 16 March 20 April Marks Distribution : Term 1 : 20% Term 2 : 20% Class test : 15% Assignment : 15% Final exam : 20% Class Performance : 5% Attendance : 5% Grading Policy : Marks (%) Grade Marks (%) Grade >60 F 77-79 B- 60-62 D 80-82 B 63-66 D+ 83-86 B+ 67-69 C- 87-89 A- 70-72 C 90-96 A 73-76 C+ 97-100 A+ Special Instructions : 1. This is a general guideline and is subject to change as per university guidelines and need. 2. Students should bring the text book, separate note book for the course and calculators in the class room otherwise the student will be asked to leave the class. 3. All class test and mid term exam scripts will be returned to the corresponding students. The students should preserve this till they get their final grades. No claim will be accepted if the scripts cannot be produced. 4. A student should collect the copy of her/his exam script within 10 working days after the exam. After this time period the script will be trashed. 5. EWU has a zero tolerance policy for students involved in any form of cheating in exam. Minimum punishment for cheating in exam is expulsion from the university for at least two semesters. 6. Students must bring their own calculators, pens etc in the exam hall. No borrowing in any exam (including class tests). For any such incident the exam script will be cancelled and the related student(s) will get zero in that exam. 7. If a student establishes, or tries to establish, any verbal or other form of communication in the exam hall while the exam in progress, the exam script(s) for all the related students will be cancelled and they will get a zero for that exam (including class tests). 8. According to the policy of the University, possession of mobile phones (on or off) in the exam hall is considered as cheating. Punishment for this offence is expulsion from the University for a minimum of two semesters. 9. If a student for any reason misses any term exam, s/he should inform the course instructor within 48 hours if he wishes to appear in a make up exam/ obtain I grade. 10. A student needs to be present in minimum 80% of the classes. Otherwise s/he may not be allowed to sit for the exam. . Marking policy 1. A : student must put her/his official name and ID on any exam script/report/assignment. No marks will be allotted for a script that does not come with full name and ID. 2. A student must leave 3-4 cm margin to the left side of every page in exam script/report/assignment. Marks will be deducted if this space is not left. 3. For any assignment/report, only A4 sized white paper can be used. Only one side of the paper should be used. For graphs only mm graph papers should be used. Reports/assignments should be properly bound/stapled. Any report/assignment not conforming to these standards will not be assessed. 4. When solving a mathematical problem a student should show full steps. There is not mark for problems showing answer without the steps. 5. When solving mathematical problems a student should be careful about presenting the answer using correct number of significant figures. Marks may be deducted if incorrect number of significant figures are used. 6. When solving a mathematical problem a student should be careful about using units. If incorrect units are used marks will be deducted. A student can use any system of units but should not mix and match different systems of units in the same part of a problem. If no units are presented marks will be deducted accordingly. 7. Answers should be to the point. Marks will be deducted for irrelevant writing. 8. When stating any law, formula, rule etc., if any symbol is used explain what the symbols stand for. Otherwise marks will be deducted. 9. Read the question and answer accordingly. For example in the question if you are asked to state Newton’s 2nd law of motion and if you write only “F=ma”, no marks will be allotted as this is not the statement of Newton’s 2nd law of motion.
