Dive into the fundamental principles of quantum chemistry through this comprehensive lecture series. Explore key concepts such as waves and particles, energy exchange between light and matter, and the photoelectric effect. Learn about the time-independent Schrödinger Equation, normalization of state functions, and probability in quantum mechanics. Delve into eigenvalue-eigenfunction equations, orthogonality, and quantum mechanical operators. Examine the relationship between experimental measurements and theoretical calculations, and study wavefunctions and linear combinations of eigenfunctions. Investigate practical applications like the particle in a 1D box model. Progress through advanced topics across 14 lecture sets, each broken down into multiple parts for in-depth understanding of quantum chemical principles and their applications in modern chemistry.
