Electromagnetic Radiation
Just like we use visible light to see things, we can use any region of the EM spectrum to “see” objects.

Thermal Imaging: Detecting IR radiationMuch of a person’s energy is radiated away from the body in the form of infrared (IR) energy.
You can produce more IR energy to warm yourself by moving around…this is why you shiver when you go outside in the cold with no coat on. This process is called thermogenesis.
Why does your mother insist you wear a hat in the winter?

Electromagnetic Radiation
• Electromagnetic radiation or “light” is a form of energy.
• Characterized by:–Wavelength ()–Amplitude (A)
• Has both electric (E) and magnetic (H) components.

Electromagnetic Radiation (cont.)• Wavelength (): The distance between two
consecutive peaks in the wave.
Increasing Wavelength
1 > 2 > 3
Unit: length (m)
![Page 9: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Electromagnetic Radiation (cont.)• Frequency (): The number of waves (or cycles)
that pass a given point in space per second.
Decreasing Frequency
1 < 2 < 3
Units: 1/time (1/sec) or, Hertz (Hz)

What statement is true when comparing red light to blue light?
A. Red light travels at a greater speed than blue light.
B. Blue light travels at greater speed than red light.
C. The wavelength of blue light is longer.
D. The wavelength of red light is longer.
![Page 12: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Back in the old days…• It was generally agreed that matter and light
were distinct.• Matter was particulate in nature, light could be
described using waves.• Physicists circa 1900 had it all figured out…• One famous physicist asserted that within ten
years or so all the major problems in physics would be solved.
• The only thing left, really, was this niggling little problem with black-body radiation…
![Page 13: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Blackbody Radiation• Planck performed experiments on the light
emitted from a solid heated to “incandescence”.
As an object is heated, intensity of emission increases, and peak wavelength shifts to smaller wavelengths.
Can “classical” physics reproduce this observation?
![Page 14: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Relative Intensity of Radiation from the SunThis kind of intensity response is called “black-body” radiation. This is the general radiation response for a super-heated object, which will emit radiation across the whole of the EM spectrum.
Note that over half the emitted radiation is in the IR...the sun is hot!!
The most intense radiation is in the visible...the sun is bright!!
Only 8% in the UV, but even this small amount can wreak havoc because radiation in this region is so energetic.
Why does the intensity of radiation drop off as we go to higher energy??
![Page 15: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Explaining Black-body Radiation
1900 – Rayleigh-Jeans, Ultraviolet catastrophe
1901 – Planck, quantized black-body radiation
Relative Intensity of radiation from the sun.
R-J law agreed with experiment only at very long wavelengths
To fit exp. data, Planck introduced a parameter into a modified R-J law…
![Page 16: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
E = nh
Light as Energy• Planck found that in order to model this behavior, one has to
envision that energy (in the form of light) is lost in integer values according to:
Energy Change
n = 1, 2, 3 (integers)
frequency
h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 x 10-34 J.s
![Page 17: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Light as Energy (cont.)• In general the relationship
between frequency and “photon” energy is
Ephoton = h
• Example: What is the energy of a 500 nm photon?
= c/ = (3x108 m/s)/(5.0 x 10-7 m)
= 6 x 1014 1/s
E = h =(6.626 x 10-34 J.s)(6 x 1014 1/s) = 4 x 10-19 J
h = 6.636 x 10-34 J s
c = 2.9979 x 108 m/s
1 Hz = 1 s-1
![Page 18: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Which type of photon will have the largest energy?
A. Ultraviolet
B. X-Ray
C. Microwave
D. Visible

Energy Quantization
The student can stop at any point on the ramp. Her distance from the ground changes continuously.
The student can stop only at certain points on a flight of stairs. Her distance from the ground is quantized.
Similarly, atomic energy levels are like steps…the energies available to an atom do not form a continuum, they are quantized.
![Page 20: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Evidence of Quantization• Black-body Radiation (Planck)
– A system can transfer energy in “packets” of size h– These packets are called quanta (singular: quantum)– Prior to this discovery it was thought that systems could absorb or emit
any amount of energy.
Other observations supported this “quantum” view: • Atomic Emission spectra (Balmer, Rydberg, Bohr)
– Light emitted from excited atoms occurs in discrete lines rather than a continuum.
• Photoelectric Effect (Einstein)– Energy itself is actually quantized into packets called photons.– This means energy has a particle-like nature as well as a wave-like
nature.• Electron Diffraction Patterns (Davisson & Germer)
– Matter also has a wave-like nature!!

Atomic EmissionWhen we heat a sample of an element, the atoms become excited. When the atom
relaxes it emits visible light. The color of the light depends on the element.

When the light emitted from excited atoms is passed through a prism, we see discrete bands of color at specific wavelengths.

When the light emitted from excited atoms is passed through a prism, we see discrete bands of color at specific wavelengths.
White light passed through a prism gives a continuous spectrum ...all visible wavelengths are present.

An excited atom relaxes from high E to low E by emitting a photon.
We can determine the energy difference (E) between levels by measuring the wavelength of the emitted photon.
E = hc/= hc/ E
If = 440 nm, = 4.5 x 10-19 J

The following visible emission spectrum was obtained from Rubidium:
A. Relative to hydrogen, the spectrum is less complex.
B. Rubidium is characterized by a continuum of energy levels.
C. No energy levels exist for which the difference in energy is equal to a 650 nm photon (red).
D. The energy levels of Rubidium are equivalent to those of hydrogen.
Which statement is true?
![Page 26: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The Photoelectric Effect
Shine light on a metal and observe electrons that are released.
You need some minimum amount of photon energy to see electrons (“o”).
Further, for ≥ o, number of electrons increases linearly with light intensity.
![Page 27: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Photoelectric Effect (cont)Frequency: determines whether e- are ejected, and their KE (velocity).
Intensity: determines the number of e- that are ejected…but they will all have the same velocity!!
![Page 28: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

increases linearly.

Diffraction of LightLight is shined through a crystal, and its waveforms are “scattered.” When they come out the other side, they create interference patterns on a detector plate.
• Diffraction can only be explained by treating light as a wave instead of a particle.
![Page 33: Plan for Wed, 29 Oct 08](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050809/5681320f550346895d986358/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Diffraction of Particles?
• Turns out we can get similar interference patterns by bombarding crystals with beams of high energy electrons also…
• This can only be explained by treating matter as a wave.

de Broglie Wavelength• If matter exhibits wave-like properties, we should be able
to determine the wavelength of a particle.• Recall the energy of a photon, and the definition of the
speed of light:

de Broglie Wavelength• We can generalize this relationship to any velocity:
• What is the de Broglie wavelength of an electron traveling at the speed of light? (melectron = 9.31 x 10-31 kg)
• What is the de Broglie wavelength of a 80 kg student walking across campus at 3 m/s?
