The de Broglie Wavelength02:32

The de Broglie Wavelength

34.5K
In the macroscopic world, objects that are large enough to be seen by the naked eye follow the rules of classical physics. A billiard ball moving on a table will behave like a particle; it will continue traveling in a straight line unless it collides with another ball, or it is acted on by some other force, such as friction. The ball has a well-defined position and velocity or well-defined momentum, p = mv, which is defined by mass m and velocity v at any given moment. This is the typical...

The arrangement of electrons in the orbitals of an atom is called its electron configuration. We describe an electron configuration with a symbol that contains three pieces of information:

In an atom, the negatively charged electrons are attracted to the positively charged nucleus. In a multielectron atom, electron-electron repulsions are also observed. The attractive and repulsive forces are dependent on the distance between the particles, as well as the sign and magnitude of the charges on the individual particles. When the charges on the particles are opposite, they attract each other. If both particles have the same charge, they repel each other.

Thomson's e/m Experiment

7.6K
In a beam of charged particles created by a heated cathode, the particles move at different speeds. However, many applications need a beam with uniform particle speeds. An arrangement known as a velocity selector uses electric and magnetic fields to pick particles with a particular speed from the beam.
A particle with charge q, speed v, and mass m enters an area from the top, where the magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular both to the particle's motion and to one another. The magnetic...

Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)01:22

Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)

1.7K
Vicinal or three-bond coupling is commonly observed between protons attached to adjacent carbons. Here, nuclear spin information is primarily transferred via electron spin interactions between adjacent C‑H bond orbitals. This generally favors the antiparallel arrangement of spins, so 3J values are usually positive.
The extent of coupling depends on the C‑C bond length, the two H‑C‑C angles, any electron-withdrawing substituents, and the dihedral angle between the involved orbitals. The...

Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)01:20

Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)

1.9K
Two NMR-active nuclei bonded to a central atom can be involved in geminal or two-bond coupling. Geminal coupling is commonly seen between diastereotopic protons in chiral molecules and unsymmetrical alkenes, among others.
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...

Area of Science:

  • Atomic Physics
  • Quantum Mechanics
  • Quantum Information

Background:

  • Understanding quantum entanglement in atomic collisions is crucial for quantum information science.
  • Electron-atom collisions provide a platform to study fundamental quantum phenomena.
  • Characterizing spin correlations in collision outcomes is key to controlling quantum states.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the entanglement properties of the final spin system in elastic electron-hydrogenlike atom collisions.
  • To develop a method for quantifying spin correlations and entanglement.
  • To explore the possibility of creating tunable entangled spin pairs.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical analysis of elastic electron-atom scattering.
  • Focus on electron exchange interactions, neglecting explicit spin-dependent forces.
  • Introduction of a single spin correlation parameter to characterize the final spin system.

Main Results:

  • The final spin system is fully described by a single spin correlation parameter.
  • This parameter, dependent on scattering angle and energy, classifies outcomes into separable, entangled, or Bell correlated states.
  • Explicit examples demonstrate the concept for mixed spin systems.

Conclusions:

  • Elastic electron-atom collisions can generate tunable spin entanglement.
  • The spin correlation parameter provides a clear measure of entanglement.
  • Published data analysis confirms the potential for creating collision partners with controlled entanglement degrees.
