Wave-particle duality: Particles such as electrons exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties. This means that they can behave like waves in some situations (interference patterns, diffraction) and like particles in others (carrying discrete amounts of energy and momentum).
Quantization: Certain properties of particles, such as energy, momentum, and angular momentum, are quantized, meaning they can only take on discrete values rather than continuous ones.
Uncertainty principle: Formulated by Werner Heisenberg, this principle states that there is a fundamental limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties, such as position and momentum, can be simultaneously known. The more precisely one property is measured, the less precisely the other can be known.
Quantum superposition: A quantum system can exist in multiple states simultaneously, known as superposition, until it is measured or observed, at which point it collapses into one of the possible states.
Entanglement: When two or more particles become correlated in such a way that the state of one particle cannot be described independently of the state of the others, they are said to be entangled. This phenomenon has been famously described by Einstein as “spooky action at a distance” and has been experimentally confirmed.
Quantum tunneling: Particles can pass through energy barriers that they classically shouldn’t be able to overcome. This phenomenon is crucial in understanding processes such as radioactive decay and the operation of semiconductor devices like tunnel diodes.
