Quantum theory of electronic double-slit diffraction

量子物理 2009-11-13 v3

摘要

The phenomena of electron, neutron, atomic and molecular diffraction have been studied by many experiments, and these experiments are explained by some theoretical works. In this paper, we study electronic double-slit diffraction with quantum mechanical approach. We can obtain the results: (1) When the slit width aa is in the range of 3λ50λ3\lambda\sim 50\lambda we can obtain the obvious diffraction patterns. (2) when the ratio of d+aa=n(n=1,2,3,)\frac{d+a}{a}=n (n=1, 2, 3,\cdot\cdot\cdot), order 2n,3n,4n,2n, 3n, 4n,\cdot\cdot\cdot are missing in diffraction pattern. (3)When the ratio of d+aan(n=1,2,3,)\frac{d+a}{a}\neq n (n=1, 2, 3,\cdot\cdot\cdot), there isn't missing order in diffraction pattern. (4) We also find a new quantum mechanics effect that the slit thickness cc has a large affect to the electronic diffraction patterns. We think all the predictions in our work can be tested by the electronic double-slit diffraction experiment.
