HW – due Wednesday midnight
Atom-photon interactions
hc
fhE Photons:
Atom Light
Energy exchangedquantized
Most commonly by 1 photon
“photons”
Atom Light
Absorption
Atom Light
Emission
Absorption
Ground state
Atoms in ground state initially
Absorption
Ground state
hf /19.10
Have to have a photon present of the right frequency (n =1 → 2)
One photon absorbed
Absorption
Ground state
hf /74.12One photon absorbed
Have to have a photon present of the right frequency (n =1 → 4)
Another possibility …
White light H atoms
slit
Absorption spectrum
Dark lines appear in spectrum at frequencies (energies) where photons
can be absorbed by the atom
Emission
Ground state
Atom must be in excited state
Emission
Ground state
hf /55.2One photon emitted
Have to have an atom present in the n = 4 excited state (n = 4 → 2)
Emission
Ground state
hf /74.12One photon emitted
Have to have an atom present in the n = 4 excited state (n = 4 → 1)
Another possibility …
H atoms“Hot”
slit
emission spectrumHave to Jazz the atoms up somehow into their excited states
Bright spectral lines appear only at frequencies (energies) that the atoms can
emit
(Kirchhoff’s Law’s 2 and 3)
A diffuse gas emits or absorbs light only at discrete frequencies specific to the substance of the gas

Matter in generalMore degrees of freedom more energy levels

lines ‘bands’
“white light”
A white object doesn’tabsorb anything
Reflective colors

“white light”
A red object ‘looks’Red because it absorbsThe blue and greens

Why green leaves turn red
Chlorophyll dies/reabsorbed in autumn leaving longer-lived Carotenoids
If an object can emit light at a certain wavelength,then it can also absorb light at that same wavelength!
Thermal radiation from continuous sources
Recall …
Cavity radiation
T

The ‘color’ and brightness of the light you see in the cavity depends on the relative intensities of the different wavelengths of light present.
These intensities depend on the temperature of the walls!
For cavity radiation, we can work out the distribution of intensities of all wavelengths, given the temperature T
Colored objects ….

Colored objects ….

Absorbs: Red, Blue, GreenReflects: yellow
Absorbs: Blue & GreenReflects: Red
An ideal black body
Black body
Absorbs light at ALL wavelengths (not just visible!)
So, it must be able to emit light at any wavelength too!
It turns out that …..
T
It turns out that …..
T
Intensity of light of a given ,l emitted from a unit area of the blackbody
It turns out that …..
T
Intensity of light of a given ,l emitted from a unit area of the blackbody
IDEAL Thermal-radiation spectra:
Most large objects are very nearly likeideal black bodies, with an associated
thermal emission spectrum.
Cool object(most intensity in IR)
The higher an object’s temperature ….
The more intensely it emits electromagnetic radiation, and …
The shorter the wavelength of the light is at which it’s emitting most strongly!
