  • Photoelectric Effect36:40

    In this lecture , you will learn the concepts of Photoelectric effect .

    • Emission of electrons from Metal surface ( Methods)

    • Work Function of Metal

    • Einstein's Photoelectric equation (1905)

    • Threshold Frequency

    • Threshold Wavelength

  • Experimental Setup for Photoelectric Effect (SIMULATION)13:04

    This experimental setup was investigated by Wilhelm Hallwachs and Philipp Lenard during 1886-1902. Their observations are explained in the simulation and the theoretical aspect of the video ( Time stamp - 7:20 ). Photoelectric emission :

    The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when electromagnetic radiation, such as light, strikes a material.

    The four laws of photoelectric emission:

    1.The velocity of electrons emitted is independent of the intensity of light and depends only upon the frequency (or wavelength) of the incident light.

    2.Photoelectric current (or the number of photoelectrons ejected per second) is proportional to the intensity of incident light.

    3.For a given metal, there exists a certain minimum frequency below which the emission of electrons stops completely. This frequency is called the threshold frequency.

    4.Photoelectric emission is an instantaneous process. So, there is no time logging between the incident of light and the emission of electrons.

  • Schrödinger equation EXPLAINED !!26:53

    The Schrodinger equation gives us a detailed account of the form of the wave functions or probability waves that control the motion of some smaller particles.

    The equation also describes how these waves are influenced by external factors. Moreover, the equation makes use of the energy conservation concept that offers details about the behaviour of an electron that is attached to the nucleus.

    In this video , Shivam Dangwal has explained the concept :

    • Wave function as a fluctuating parameter for matter waves

    • Energy operator

    • Momentum Operator

    • Schrödinger equation

    • Time Dependent Schrödinger wave equation

    • Time Independent Schrödinger wave equation

    • Applications of Schrödinger equation ( Qualitative Idea only

Requirements

  • Basic Classical Physics Knowledge is required to compare and contrast with the Quantum World
