This resource is a comprehensive teaching presentation that introduces the fundamental concepts of quantum theory, bridging the gap between classical and modern physics. It provides clear explanations, diagrams, worked examples, and practice questions to support both teaching and independent learning.
The resource includes:
- Wave–particle duality of light – photons, Planck’s hypothesis, and Einstein’s extension.
- Photon energy (E = hf) and calculations using electron volts (eV).
- Momentum of photons – radiation pressure and worked examples.
- The Photoelectric Effect – threshold frequency, work function, Einstein’s photoelectric equation, and experimental evidence.
- Problems with the classical wave model of light vs. the photon model.
- Wave–particle duality of electrons – de Broglie wavelength, electron diffraction, and supporting experiments.
- Line spectra – emission and absorption spectra, applications in astrophysics.
- Atomic structure and energy levels – excitation, de-excitation, photon emission, and absorption.
- Worked examples, quizzes, and problem-solving exercises to reinforce learning.
This resource is ideal for teachers as a lesson presentation, revision guide, or assessment aid, and for students as a self-study tool to master quantum concepts and prepare for exams.
