    Introduction Quantum Mechanics is the branch of physics that describes the behavior of matter and energy at the smallest scales, such as atoms and subatomic particles. It is one of the fundamental theories of physics, alongside General Relativity, and has been remarkably successful in predicting experimental results. Wave-Particle Duality One of the cornerstone concepts in…

    Introduction The wave function, denoted by the Greek letter psi (), is a mathematical function that describes the quantum state of a physical system. It provides the probabilities of the outcomes of measurements of physical quantities such as position, momentum, and energy. Schrödinger Equation The evolution of the wave function in time is governed by…

    The infinite square well is a fundamental one-dimensional model in quantum mechanics that describes a particle confined to a potential energy well with infinitely high walls. This simple model is used to introduce and study basic quantum mechanical concepts such as energy quantization and wavefunctions. The infinite square well provides a valuable pedagogical tool for…
