Hydrogen Atom The picture we have developed for a H like atom fails when you apply a magneNc field. What was a single emission line in zero field become a mulNplet when a field is applied First an electron moving in a circular orbit has a magneNc moment. You can think about this in analogy with the total angular momentum of the earth around the sun. Second, the electron has an inherent magneNc moment called spin + S J = L L is the angular momentum around the sun rxp S is orbital angular momentum Iω An electron moving in a circular orbit has a magneNc moment. If there is a magneNc field B there will be a torque. B If the current i flowing around a small plane loop of area A in a magnetic field B, there will be a torque τ τ = iAxB A is a vector with magnitude of the area, direction according to right hand rule with i But usual notation is µ = iA µ is magnetic moment of the loop. Work is done by torque moving through angle θ W = − ∫ τ dθ = −µ B ∫ sin θdθ = µ B cosθ + constant The potential U is - work We can always define a zero for the potenital •B U = − µ B cosθ = − µ Lets calculate the classical µ The current is the charge divided by the period. e 2π r i = : but v= T T v µ = iA = e πr2 2π r µ = iA = µ e = Gyromagnetic Ratio L 2m ev evr πr2 = 2π r 2 But L=mvr e µ=− L 2m Electrons charged negaNve e µ=− L 2m µB = MagneNc moment of an orbiNng charge e = 5.79x10 −5 eV / T 2me Bohr Magneton We know that angular momentum will be quanNzed‐‐figure µz = − e e Lz = − ml = µ B ml 2me 2me τ = µxB Classical this creates a torque that would align the moment with the B field. With quanNzed angular moment, we get precession around the field direcNon: Larmor precession Look at the boVom of the figure: L sin θ idφ =| dL | e Giving: L sin θ idφ =| dL |=| τ | dt = LBsin θ dt 2me ωL = dφ 1 | dL | e = = B dt L sin θ dt 2me Larmor frequency Work done dW=-µBsinθ dθ =d(µBcosθ )=d(µ iB) U = −µ iB → look back. e µ=− L 2m τ = µxB e µ=− L 2m e ωL = B 2me e eB U = −µ iB = LiB = Lz = ω L ml 2me 2me The Total Energy of the electron is energy without the field + U E = E0 +U = −µ iB = E0 + ω L ml What does this look like for n=1 system? Example for l=2 B = B0 k ml=0 Δml = 0, ± 1 Δl = ±1 Calculate the magneNc energy and Larmor frequency for an electron in the n=2 state of hydrogen, assuming the atom is in a magneNc field of strength B=1.00T.

Proves electrons are moving around the nucleus. Shared 1902 Nobel Prize with Lorentz To make the arguments simple we need a system where we can focus on the orbital moNon of the electron without having to worry about the spin. To accomplish this we need a system with two electrons where the spins are opposite. This is called a singlet state. One option would be two electron in the 1s state of He, but that will not work because we need m l ≠ 0. What will work is having electrons in two different orbits of He but still as a singlet.

Shared 1902 Nobel Prize with Lorentz Lets see what happens in a 5 T magneNc field. The magnetic field spits the one line (B=0) into three for m l = −1, 0, +1 Each line separated by ΔE=µ B B = 3.0x10 −4 eV ΔE = 1x10 −5 eV E Pieter Zeeman 1865‐1943 Dutch e 2me BohrMagnetron µB = µB = e = 5.79x10 −5 eV / T 2me ΔE=mµ B B Consider a He atom with two electrons, one is in the 1s state and the excited one is in the d state. Nothing happens to the 1s. Shared 1902 Nobel Prize with Lorentz Now what happens? How many lines will you see? Good Quiz quesNon! Imagine a hydrogen atom in which the electron has no spin (only orbital moment counts). The atom is placed in a magneNc field of 1.5T along the z axis (a) Describe the effect of the B field on the 1s and 2p states of the hypotheNcal H atom. Sketch the energy levels. (b) When B=0, there is a single spectral line corresponding to the 2p to 1s transiNon. How many lines does this become when B≠0? (c) What is the fracNonal separaNon between the adjacent lines. ΔE=µ B B ΔE=µ B B = 0.9x10 −4 eV E(2 p → 1s) = 13.6 1 − 1 = 10.2eV 4 ΔE 0.9x10 −4 = 0.88x10 −5 E 10.2 Fact, The “Normal Zeeman” effect is frequently not observed. Instead you see four, six or even more unequally spaced lines in the emission spectra. This is known as the “Anomalous Zeeman Effect.” There is also another effect which doubles the number of lines call Fine structure. Everything is a result of the electron spinning around its axis and having a magneNc moment. Stern‐Gerlach experiment Sz = ms m s = ±1 / 2 If we create a beam of atoms such that we are in the n=2, l=1 state there are 2l+1=3 different values of ml. If this beam is directed into a region with a constant magneNc field all that happens is the vector precesses around the field. But in an a nonuniform magneNc field there is a force and we should see three images of the slit as shown. –2(l+1) Stern and Gerlach carried out this experiment on Ag atoms where l=0 so they should have seen no splipng but they saw two lines, caused by the intrinsic spin of the electron OVo Stern Nobel Prize 1943 Spin Quantum Number s for the electron is ½! Stern‐Gerlach magnet experiment split the beam into to lines =(2s+1); Spin up—spin down. According to quanNzaNon rules for angular momentum –applied to spin. 1 Sz = m s m s = ± 2 By definiNon the magnitude of the spin angular momentum is S = s(s +1) = 3 2 The angular momentum of rotaNon cannot be changed in any way, but is an intrinsic property of the electron Spin, as angular momentum and torque, is known as a pseudovector (or an axial vector), Opposed to a true or polar vector such as velocity. The property of a pseudovector is that its mirror image is equal in magnitude but flipped in direcNon because a pseudovector has a chirality. An ordered array of spin in a solid breaks the symmetry of the crystal. How can you see this? PHYSICAL REVIEW B 86, 060512(R) (2012) An LSU team, first authored by graduate student Guorong Li, has found a way to see such a broken symmetry. They reported in late August (Phys. Rev. B 86, 060512(R) (2012)) that, in one of the parent compounds of new Fe‐based superconductors BaFe2As2, the surface dramaNcally enhances the spin‐lapce coupling so that dynamic anNphase spin domains in the bulk are frozen out at the surface. This leads to the coexistence of structural and spin anNphase domain walls. Due to the large spin‐electron‐lapce coupling at the surface, these domain walls have the broken mirror‐plane symmetry associated with spin, resulNng in a leu‐ and right‐handed chirality, which can be described as a spin toroidal moment chirality (Fig. 1b). While layer ruthenate materials are well known to display an array of exciNng phenomena such as metal‐insulator transiNons (MIT), spin‐orbital ordering, exoNc superconducNvity, and quantum criNcality, this neutron scaVering work has revealed an unusual E‐type anNferromagneNc (AFM) structure in Mn‐subsNtuted Sr3Ru2O7 (x = 0.16) [See Fig.]. They found that this layered ruthenate behaves as a quasi‐two‐dimensional (2D) anNferromagnet with in‐plane (ab) long‐range ordering but only single bilayer (5‐6Å) ferromagneNc correlaNons along the c direcNon bellow TN = 78 K. Such Mn‐induced magneNc structure is unusual because the criNcal behavior of the staggered magneNzaNon (i.e. the AFM order parameter) does not reflect the expected behavior of a 2D magneNc phase transiNon. ‐PRB 85, 180410(R) (2012)]. We will do many examples of this on Friday.
