    Study Notes

    Diffraction & Spectroscopy

    • Semiconductors and Spectroscopy: Spectroscopy plots intensity/amplitude versus energy/frequency/wavelength. This is studied in semiconductors.
    • Solids, Liquids, and Gases: Diffraction is observed in these states of matter.
    • X-ray and Electron Diffraction: X-ray and electron diffraction are used in materials science to study crystal structures. Bragg's law (ηλ = 2dsinθ) describes constructive and destructive interference patterns associated with crystal structures. These patterns depend on materials state and cooling rates. For example: amorphous vs crystalline ice.
    • Electromagnetic Waves: Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. A changing electric field produces a changing magnetic field.

    Properties of Electromagnetic Waves

    • Amplitude: The maximum strength of the wave.
    • Wavelength: The distance between successive points on the wave.
    • Frequency: The number of waves passing a point per second.
    • Speed: Constant (3x108 m/s) in a vacuum, independent of frequency or wavelength.

    Electromagnetic Wave Equations in Free Space

    • Equations for electromagnetic waves in free space are derived using Faraday's law and Gauss's law for electric fields. These equations allow the prediction of wave behavior.

    Spectroscopy

    • UV-Vis Spectra: Spectroscopy plots intensity vs. wavelength/frequency. Useful for studying solids, liquids, and gases. The peaks shift based on particle size.
    • UV-Vis Spectroscopy: UV-visible spectroscopy involves measuring the absorption or transmission of light by various types of materials.

    Additional Concepts

    • Ineslastic and Elastic Processes: Processes related to emission and absorption and other types of light interactions.
    • Energy and Wavelength: Energy (E) and wavelength (λ) are inversely related (E=hc/λ), where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light. Absorption of light corresponds to an electron changing energy levels.
    • Raman Spectroscopy: A scattering phenomenon where the incident light scatters while losing or gaining energy.
    • Stokes and Anti-Stokes: Raman scattering. Stokes radiation is lower in frequency, while Anti-Stokes is higher.
    • Bohr Model: Electrons orbit within atoms and if light is absorbed or emitted, electrons jump shells.
