Finding way to bridge the gap between quantum and classical mechanics
Abstract
Description
We have calculated the momentum distributions of nanoparticles in diffraction and interference dependent on the effective screening mass parameter or size parameter and presented the calculations for a nanoparticle inside an infinite square potential well and for a tunnelling nanoparticle through a square potential barrier. These results display the transition from quantum to classical mechanics and the simultaneous wave-particle duality of nanoparticles. The concept that the effective screening effect increases with increasing size of an object paves way for development of nanomechanics and nanotechnology.
