QUANTUM CHEMISTRY

Quantum Chemistry introduces the essential principles and common applications of quantum chemistry and spectroscopy. The field of quantum chemistry and spectroscopy emphasizes analyzing and describing the structures of individual atoms and molecules as well as calculating their properties. This course connects physical chemistry concepts to the real world by covering three basic types of motion for individual atoms and molecules: translation, vibration, and rotation; consequently, the translational, vibrational, and rotational spectra can be analyzed and interpreted. Moreover, other possible applications include scanning tunneling microscope, atomic force microscope, tunneling in chemical reactions, quantum wells, quantum dots, teleportation, quantum computers, computational chemistry, and others.
