Metal Read more

Metals and insulators : the quantum difference !

In matter, electrons behave like quantum waves trapped in a box.

Laser Read more

The laser technology

Invented by physicists, the laser technology uses the quantum properties of atoms to emit a light of a special kind.

spin Read more

The spin, a quantum magnet

Not only is the electron both a particle and a quantum wave, but it also carries a kind of mini magnet called spin.

tunnel effect Read more

the tunnel effect

Sometimes quantum particles can go through walls, as if an invisible tunnel opened up before them!  

Atoms Read more

The atom, a box for electrons

The matter around us is made up of atoms.

Quantization Read more

Quantization : a discontinuous universe

In the quantum world, particles can only assume certain energies. Imagine a car that could only run at certain specific speeds and would directly accelerate from 30 to 50 mph! Why?

duality Read more

Wave-particle duality

Every quantum object is both a particle, like a tennis ball, and some sort of wave, like a wave in the ocean.
