The document discusses Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, which states that the more precisely the position of a particle is determined, the less precisely its momentum can be known, and vice versa. It provides examples of this principle applied to measurements of an electron's position and momentum using light, as well as examples involving the hydrogen atom, electron diffraction, and quantum dots. The principle arises because measuring a particle inevitably involves interacting with it, imparting uncertainty.

Quantum Mechanics: Electrons, Transistors, & LASERS. Paul H. Carr
Quantum Mechanics, QM, has enabled new technologies that impact our daily lives. Yet, there have been at least 14 different QM interpretations in the last century. “If you think you understand QM, you don’t,” said Richard Feynman. Our macroscopic language is inadequate to describe the wave-particle duality of microscopic QM particles. Mathematics works better. This talk illuminated the production of the play Copenhagen, in which German physicist Werner Heisenberg, who directed the German attempt to make an atom bomb, visited Niels Bohr in Denmark during WWII.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2. TRUE / FALSE
A photon (quantum of light) is reflected from a
mirror.
(A) Because a photon has a zero mass, it does not
exert a force on the mirror.
(B) Although the photon has energy, it cannot
transfer any energy to the surface because it has
zero mass.
(C) The photon carries momentum, and when it
reflects off the mirror, it undergoes a change in
momentum and exerts a force on the mirror.
(D) Although the photon carries momentum, its
change in momentum is zero when it reflects from
the mirror, so it cannot exert a force on the mirror.

the less accurately you know the momentum (i.e., the larger Δp is);
and vice versa

6. Heisenberg realised that ...
• In the world of very small particles, one cannot
measure any property of a particle without
interacting with it in some way
• This introduces an unavoidable uncertainty into
the result
• One can never measure all the
properties exactly

7. Measuring Position and Momentum
of an Electron
• Shine light on electron and detect
reflected light using a microscope
• Minimum uncertainty in position
is given by the wavelength of the light
• So to determine the position
accurately, it is necessary to use
light with a short wavelength

8. Measuring Position and Momentum
• By Planc ’k s law E = hc/λ, a photon with a
short wavelength has a large energy
• Thus, it would impart a large ‘kick’ to the electron
• But to determine its momentum accurately,
electron must only be given a small kick
• This means using light of long wavelength

9. Light Microscopes
• Suppose the positions and speeds of all particles in
the universe are measured to sufficient accuracy at a
particular instant in time
• It is possible to predict the motions of every particle at
any time in the future (or in the past for that matter)
“An intelligent being knowing, at a given instant of time, all forces acting in nature, as well as the
momentary positions of all things of which the universe consists, would be able to comprehend the
motions of the largest bodies of the world and those of the smallest atoms in one single formula,
provided it were sufficiently powerful to subject all the data to analysis; to it, nothing would be
uncertain, both future and past would be present before its eyes.”

14. Classical Hydrogen Atom
Classically we know that negatively charged electron is attracted to
the proton, and it was suggested that the electron circles the proton.
But if an electron is circling, every-time it changes direction it is
accelerated, and an accelerating charge emits EM radiation (light).
Classically, it can be calculated that the radiation of the electron
would cause it to gradually loose its rotational kinetic energy and
collapse on top of the proton within 10-9 seconds !
Hydrogen Atom14
15. Consider a single hydrogen atom:
an electron of charge = -e free to move around
in the electric field of a fixed proton of charge = +e
(proton is ~2000 times heavier than electron, so we consider it fixed).
The electron has a potential energy due to the attraction to proton of:
where r is the electron-proton separation
The electron has a kinetic energy of
The total energy is then
15
16. Classically, the minimum energy of the hydrogen atom is –
the state in which the electron is on top of the proton
∞p = 0, r = 0.
Quantum mechanically, the uncertainty principle forces the electron to
have non-zero momentum and non-zero expectation value of position.
If a is an average distance electron-proton distance,
the uncertainty principle informs us that the minimum electron
momentum is on the order of ħ/a.
The energy as a function of a is then:
16
17. If we insist on placing the
∞
electron right on top of the proton (a=0),
the potential energy is still - , just as it is classically, but the
total energy is:
Quantum mechanics tells us that an ATOM COULD NEVER COLLAPSE
as it would take an infinite energy
to locate the electron on top of the proton
17
18. The minimum energy state, quantum mechanically, can be estimated
by calculating the value of a=ao for which E(a) is minimized:
a [Å]
E [eV]

By preventing localization of the electron near the proton, the Uncertainty Principle
RETARDS THE CLASSICAL COLLAPSE OF THE ATOM,
PROVIDES THE CORRECT DENSITY OF MATTER,
and YIELDS THE PROPER BINDING ENERGY OF ATOMS

19. One might ask:
“If light can behave like a particle,
might particles act like waves”?
YES !
Particles, like photons, also have a wavelength given by:
de Broglie wavelength
The wavelength of a particle depends on its momentum,
just like a photon!
The main difference is that matter particles have mass,
and photons don’t !

20. Nobel Prize
• Alfred Nobel was born in1833 in Stockholm,
Sweden. He was a chemist, engineer, and
inventor. In 1894 Nobel purchased the Bofors iron
and steel mill, which he converted into a major
armaments manufacturer. Nobel amassed a
fortune during his lifetime, most of it from his 355
inventions, of which dynamite is the most famous.
• In 1888, Alfred was astonished to read his own
obituary in a French newspaper. It was actually
Alfred's brother Ludvig who had died. The article
disconcerted Nobel and made him apprehensive
about how he would be remembered. This inspired
him to change his to bequeathed 94% of his total
assets (US$186 million in 2008) to establish the
five Nobel Prizes. Today the Nobel Foundation has
US$560 million.
• Winners receive a diploma, medal, and monetary
award. In 2009, the monetary award was US$1.4
million.
