6 Hot Things Glow 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 6
7 The Solar Spectrum in Detail O 3 Yellow areas lost on the way down 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 7
8 Triumph of 19 th Century Physics Lord Kelvin, 1900 There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now. All that remains is more and more precise measurement. 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 8
9 Ultraviolet Catastrophe Solar Spectrum 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 9
10 Ultraviolet Catastrophe Huge Discrepancy between Measurements and 19 th Century Theory 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 10
11 Solution was Quantum Theory Quantum Theory Max Planck Albert Einstein /1/2018 World of Color 2 11
12 The answer was. Duality: Part Wave Part Particle 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 12
13 Wave Picture is Fine for Optical Instruments But For Creating Light we need the Photon Picture Likewise Detection of light needs Photon Model 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 13
14 Color Perception Train Source Brain Optic Nerve Object Medium Eye 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 14
15 Color Perception Train: Sources Source Brain Optic Nerve Object Medium Eye 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 15
16 Logically, if Light is an EM Wave We should wave some electric charges up and down to generate light at the right (high) frequency of course Wavelength λ Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, U. of Southampton, UK 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 16
17 That s how radio transmitters work AM Radio Station 650 khz Cell Phone Radio Transmitter MHz Antenna Radio Frequency Generator Chips 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 17
18 But these wavelengths are still far too big We need 500,000 x shorter λ Electronics are not remotely capable of this frequency* * with one exception to be mentioned We need a different way to generate visible light one by one as photons 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 18
19 *Exception: Synchrotron Radiation Electrons whirling around at 99.9% of the speed of light sling off photons of all frequencies up to x-rays RIKEN Storage Ring, Japan 2/1/2018 World of Color 2 19
