Beschreibung

This is an introductory textbook tailored for a one semester course on quantum mechanics at a technically oriented school. It covers fundamental quantum mechanics from an application's perspective, considering optoelectronic devices, biological sensors and molecular imagers as well as solar cells and field effect transistors. The book provides a brief review of classical and statistical mechanics and electromagnetism, and then turns to the quantum treatment of atoms, molecules, and chemical bonds. Aiming at senior undergraduate and graduate students in nanotechnology related areas like physics, materials science, and engineering, the book could be used at schools that offer interdisciplinary but focused training for future workers in the semiconductor industry and for the increasing number of related nanotechnology firms, and even practicing people could use it when they need to learn related concepts. The author is Professor Dae Mann Kim from the Korea Institute for Advanced Study who has been teaching Quantum Mechanics to engineering, material science and physics students for over 25 years in USA and Asia.

Preface

The multidisciplinary science education has been prompted by the rapid advancement and utilization of IT/BT/NT, and the quantum mechanics is the basic science supporting the technologies. It further provides the platform on which to bridge different disciplines in science and engineering. This introductory textbook is intended for the undergraduate seniors and beginning graduate students and is focused on the application and multidisciplinary aspects of the quantum mechanics.

The applications have been chosen primarily from the semiconductor and optoelectronic devices to make the discussion practical. The p-n junction diode is first singled out for the discussion as the simplest solid state switch and also as photodiode, light-emitting and laser diodes and solar cells. Moreover, the field effect transistors are treated in some detail. The well-known theory of MOSFET is first compactly presented to serve as the general background for considering other kinds of novel FETs such as nanowire and spin field-effect transistors. The working principles of these devices are treated from a unified standpoint of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium statistics and device physics in conjunction with the quantum mechanical concepts. Additionally, these FETs as the nonvolatile memory cells, biosensor, and solar cells are highlighted. As an extension of the discussion of the spin FET the quantum computing is briefly touched upon.

The organization of the book is as follows. The classical and statistical mechanics and the electromagnetic fields are compactly summarized as a general background. After a short visit to the milestones leading to quantum mechanics, the Schrödinger equation is applied immediately to problems of practical interests, involving the quantum wells and subbands, 1D, 2D, and 3D densities of states. In particular, the tunneling and its applications are highlighted. Two key bound systems are treated in some detail. Specifically, the harmonic oscillator is analyzed based on the quantum mechanical and operator treatments. In addition, the hydrogen atom is considered as the simplest atomic system and as an essential ingredient for analyzing the atomic spectroscopy, multielectron atoms, paramagnetic electron resonance and molecules.

The chemical bond for the molecular formation is included in the discussion list. In particular, the molecular spectroscopy is treated as an extension of the atomic spectroscopy by utilizing the time-independent perturbation theory and focused on the rotational and vibrational motions of diatomic molecules. The nuclear spin, hyperfine structure, and nuclear magnetic resonance for molecular imaging are briefly introduced. Moreover, the interaction of light with matter is highlighted, based on the time-dependent perturbation theory, and the operation principle of the laser is elucidated. Finally, the semiconductor statistics and the transport of the charge carriers are discussed as an essential background for modeling the semiconductor devices. An effort has been expended to make the presentation and discussion brief and clear by simplifying the mathematics and by making use of the analogies existing between different dynamic systems.

The contents of this book have evolved from the courses offered in the Department of Electrical and Computer engineering, Rice University, Houston, TX., USA; POSTECH, Pohang, Korea; and the College of Engineering, Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea. The active and enthusiastic participation of the attending students made it a joyful experience to teach the courses. My thanks are due to those students. I would also like to express my sincere thanks to Miss You-Na Hwang for her tireless cooperation in preparing the figures for the book. Finally, it is my pleasure and honor to express my heartfelt gratitude to Professor Willis E. Lamb, whose courses on quantum mechanics and laser physics were most inspiring.

Chapter 1Review of Classical Theories

A compact review of classical theories is presented, including the classical and statistical mechanics and electromagnetism. These theories are inherently intertwined with quantum mechanics and provide the general background from which to understand the quantum mechanics in a proper perspective.

1.1 Harmonic Oscillator

The harmonic oscillator (HO) is one of the simplest, yet ubiquitous dynamical systems appearing in a variety of physical and chemical systems such as electromagnetic waves and molecules. The HO is a particle attached to a spring, executing oscillatory motion. When the spring is compressed or stretched, the spring provides a restoring force for putting the particle back to the equilibrium position (Figure 1.1). In the process, an oscillatory motion ensues, and the motion represents a variety of important natural phenomena such as molecular vibrations and electromagnetic waves.

Figure 1.1 The harmonic oscillator, a particle of mass m attached to a spring with the spring constant k (a); the potential energy of HO (b); a diatomic molecule as represented by two atoms coupled via an effective spring constant (c).

Newton's equation of motion of the HO reads as

1.1

where m is the mass of the oscillator, x the displacement from the equilibrium position, and k the spring constant. The double dots denote the second-order differentiation with respect to time, and −kx is Hook's restoring force. The equation can be put into a form

1.2

where ω is the characteristic frequency. Trigonometric functions, for example, , are well-known solutions of Eq. (1.2). When the oscillator is pulled by x0 and gently released, for instance, the displacement x(t) and the velocity v(t) are given by

1.3

and x(t), v(t) oscillate in time in quadrature (Figure 1.2) with the period .

Figure 1.2 The displacement x, velocity v, and kinetic K and potential V energies versus ωt, all scaled with respective maximum values. The total energy is constant in time, and HO is a conservative system.

The potential energy of the HO is obtained by integrating the work done for displacing the HO from the equilibrium position to x against the restoring force:

1.4

The total energy is often denoted by Hamiltonian H and is expressed in terms of the linear momentum px and the displacement x as

1.5

Given H, Hamilton's equations of motion read as

1.6

The pair of equations in (Eq. (1.6)), when combined, reduces to Newton's equation of motion, and the variables x, px are known as canonically conjugate variables. The essence of classical mechanics is to solve the equation of motion and to precisely specify the position and momentum of a particle or a system of particles.

1.2 Boltzmann Distribution Function

The properties of macroscopic quantities are derived from the dynamics of an ensemble of microscopic objects such as electrons, holes, atoms, and molecules. Statistical mechanics describes such an ensemble of particles by means of the distribution function, f (r, v, t). The function represents the probability of finding the particles in the phase space volume element drdv at r, v, and t. Thus, when multiplied by density n of the particle f (r, v, t) drdv represents the number of particles in the volume element at
