Time-dependent perturbation theory

The theory described here is essential for
understanding the optical transitions from
one state to another and thus
spectroscopies. It gives the formula for
intensities of spectral bands.

The probability of transition (intensity of a
spectral band for the transition n ← 0) is

system is in time-independent ground state.

Let us remember that a “time-independent”
wave function does have hidden time
dependence of the form:

Perturbation = light

Next, we shine light on the system. Light (or a
photon) is a time-oscillating electromagnetic
field. It is very weak as compared to
electrostatic interactions between electrons
and nuclei in atoms and molecules. It can be
treated as a time-dependent perturbation:

Once we turn on the time-dependent
perturbation, the wave function will have
time-dependent response. We consider the
first-order response. We expand the firstorder correction to the zeroth-order wave
function by eigenfunctions of the known
(initial, time-independent) system.

When the dipole moment interacts with the
oscillating electric field (light), the transition
probability is proportional to the square of
the transition dipole moment (in the
direction of polarization) and square of the
intensity of light.
