Lifetimes of the molecules in the excite...

Lifetimes of the molecules in the excited are often measured by using pulsed radiation source of duration nearly in the nano second range. If the radiation source has the duration of 2 ns and the number of photons emitted during the pulse source is `2.5xx10^(15)`, calculate the energy of the source.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Frequency of emission `(v)=(1)/("time period")=(1)/(2xx10^(-9)s)`
Energy of emission=Nhv
`=2.5xx10^(15)xx6.626xx10^(-34)xx0.5xx10^(9)`
`=8.2825xx10^(-10)J`.

Einstein established the idea of photons on the basis of Planck's quantum theory. According to his idea, the light of frequency f or wavelength lamda is infact a stream of photons. The rest mass of each photon is zero and velocity is equal to the velocity of light (c) = 3 xx 10^(8) m.s^(-1) . Energy, E = hf, where h = Planck's constant = 6.625 xx 10^(-34)J.s . Each photon has a momentum p = (hf)/(c) , although its rest mass is zero. The number of photons increase when the intensity of incident light increases and vice-versa. On the other hand, according to de Broglie any stream of moving particles may be represented by progressive waves. The wavelength of the wave (de Broglie wavelength) is lamda = (h)/(p) , where p is the momentum of the particle. When a particle having charge e is accelerated with a potential difference of V, the kinetic energy gained by the particle is K= eV. Thus as the applied potential difference is increased, the kinetic energy of the particle and hence the momentum increase resulting in a decrease in the de Broglie wavelength.

H, He^(+), Li^(2+) are examples of atoms or ions with one electron each . The energy of such atoms when in the n-th energy state (according to Bohr,s theory , n=1,2,3…. =principal quantum number ) is E_n =(-13.6 Z^2)/(n^2) eV (1 eV =1.6xx10^(-19)J) . For the ground state ,n=1 . in order to raise the atom from the ground state to n=f , the suitable incident light should have a wavelength given by lambda=(hc)/(E_f-E_1) . But the atom cannot stay permanently in the f-energy state, ultimately , it comes to the ground state by radiating the extra energy , E_f-E_1 as electromagnetic radiation . The electron of the atom comes from n=f to n=1 in one or more steps using the permitted energy levels . As a result there is a possibility of emission of radiation with more than one wavelength from the atom. Planck's constant =6.63 xx10^(-34)J*s and velocity of light c=3xx10^(8)m*s^(-1) . The wavelength of radiation emitted for the transition of the electron of He^+ ion from n=4 to n=2 is
