Resonance Scattering < from Cohen-Tannoudji et al. “Quantum Mechanics” >
Learning Goals for Chapter 7 – The Particle in a Box (PIB) • After this chapter, the related homework problems, and reading the relevant parts of the textbook, you should be able to: • give examples for where the model of a PIB can be applied; • recognize physical situations that can be modeled using the PIB; • explain the form of the PIB Hamiltonian; • explain how the boundary conditions of the PIB impose conditions on the wave functions; • derive the wave functions and energy levels of the QM particle in a box; • argue why the particle in a box ground state energy is compatible with HUP.
Learning Goals for Chapter 8 – “Rectangular” Potentials • After this chapter, the related homework problems, and reading the relevant parts of the textbook, you should be able to: • use the boundary conditions at a step to derive reflection and transmission coefficients; • explain the phenomenon of evanescent waves and some examples of their application; • explain the phenomenon of tunneling and some examples of its application; • explain the phenomenon of resonance scattering.
