WARM UP “The service we render others is the rent we pay for our room on Earth.” -Sir Wilfred Grenfell 1.What does this mean to you? 2.How can you be of service to others? Introduction to Quantum Mechanics Wave Mechanics • Transmit energy • Wavelength and Frequency – Inversely proportional Wave Mechanics • Electromagnetic spectrum – Continuous gradient Quantum Theory • Max Planck’s emission spectra show levels of energy in e- Quantum Theory • Light released when e- drop from a higher level (excited state) to a lower one (ground state) Wave / Particle Duality • Albert Einstein’s photoelectric effect experiment showed certain light waves release metal e– Light is both a wave and a particle (photon) The Big Bang Theory Wave / Particle Duality • Louis de Broglie – Dual Electron • e- behave like both particles and waves Quantum Mechanics • Erwin Schrodinger – Energy levels/shells are really wave regions Quantum Mechanics The Big Bang Theory Quantum Mechanics • Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle – Werner Heisenberg – You can’t simultaneously know the speed and position of an e• You can’t “see” the wave and particle at the same time Quantum Mechanics WRAP UP Write your own 1-sentence definition of quantum mechanics.
