- 3.1: Free-Electron Model
- The particle in a box quantum-mechanical problem can provide an instructive application to chemistry: the free-electron model (FEM) for delocalized π -electrons.
- 3.2: Particle in a 1-Dimensional box
- A particle in a 1-dimensional box is a fundamental quantum mechanical approximation describing the translational motion of a single particle confined inside an infinitely deep well from which it cannot escape.
- 3.3: Particle in a 2-Dimensional Box
- A particle in a 2-dimensional box is a fundamental quantum mechanical approximation describing the translational motion of a single particle confined inside an infinitely deep well from which it cannot escape.
- 3.4: Particle in a 3-Dimensional box
- A particle in a 3-dimensional box is a fundamental quantum mechanical approximation describing the translational motion of a single particle confined inside an infinitely deep well from which it cannot escape.
