Max PlanckBorn April 23, 1858 - Died Oct. 3, 1947
• German physicist
• Was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1918 for his discovery of energy quanta
• Referred to as the father of quantum physics
1900 - Planck hypothesized that there is a minimum size in which atoms can release or absorb energy.
E h f Planck’s
constant 6.63 x 10-34 J.sFrequency (s-1)
He showed that energies must be quantized to explain the spectrum of radiation emitted from certain objects.
The energy values are restricted to whole number quantities of hv.

Albert Einstein• Born March 14, 1879 - Died April 18, 1955
• German physicist• Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics
in 1921 for his discovery of the photoelectric effect
1905 - Einstein used Planck’s quantum theory to explain the photoelectric effect.
photonE h f
• Every metal has a minimum frequency of light for which it will emit electrons.
He hypothesized that the light striking the surface of the metal is a stream of tiny energy particles he called photons. The energy of each
photon must be proportional to the frequency of the light.

• Born Oct. 7, 1885 - Died Nov. 18, 1962
• Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922 for his investigation of atomic structure and the radiation they emanate
Niels Bohr
• Danish physicist
1913 - Bohr developed a model of the hydrogen atom that explains its emission line spectrum.
Bohr borrowed Planck’s idea that energies are quantized and proposed that only orbits of certain radii corresponding to defined energies are permitted.

Quantum History
• A photon is absorbed when an electron moves to an orbit with a higher energy state and is emitted when an electron moves to an orbit with a lower energy state.
• Bohr assumed that electrons could “quantum jump” from one allowed orbit to another by absorbing or emitting photons of light with specific frequencies.
• Bohr’s model states that only photons of specific frequencies can be absorbed or emitted by the atom.
these frequencies must correspond to the energy difference between two orbits.
•Bohr’s model was important because it introduced the idea of using quantized energy stated for electrons in atoms. However, his model is only accurate for atoms or ions with a single electron.

Arthur H. Compton
• American physicist
• Born Sept. 10, 1892 - Died March 15, 1962
• Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1927 for his discovery of the Compton Effect
1922 - Discovered that the wavelength of x-rays would increase when they are collided with and scattered by free electrons in matter.
- This increase in wavelength means that the x-ray photons can transfer quanta of energy to the electron upon collision.
This was a strong verification for quantum theory because explanation of the effect required that the x-rays be looked at as particles rather than as waves.

1924 - De Broglie proposed that an electron in its orbit around the nucleus has a particular wavelength associated with it.
• Born Aug. 15, 1892 - Died Mar. 19, 1987
• Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1929 for his discovery of the wave nature of electrons.
Louis de Broglie
• French physicist
1927 - Wave nature of the electron was experimentally proven using electron diffraction by Davisson and Germer.

Werner Heisenberg• Born Dec. 5, 1901 - Died Feb 1, 1976
• German physicist
• Awarded the Nobel Prize in 1932 for the creation of quantum mechanics.
1927 - Uncertainty Principle• It is impossible to know both the exact
momentum of an electron and its exact location in space at the same time.
1925 - Published his theory of quantum mechanics• Formulated his new theory in terms of matrix equations.

Erwin Schrodinger • Born Aug. 12, 1887 - Died Jan. 4, 1961
• Austrian physicist• Awarded a share of the Nobel Prize in
Physics in 1933 for the development of his wave equation.
1926 - Wave Equation
• Schrodinger’s wave equation includes both the wave-like and particle-like behavior of the electron.• The square of the wave function represents the probability that an electron will be in a certain place at a given instant of time.
