光的本性理论研究新进展

A Progress of the Theory on the Nature of Light

将光场的量子化问题转化为一维简谐振子的量子化问题 ,然后利用概率论和变分法 ,直接从经典谐振子的哈密顿量导出一维简谐振子的薛定谔方程 ,从而发现 ,光只是一种电磁波。光场的能量、动量量子化起源于电磁场振动模能量、动量的统计平均。在此理论中 ,约化普朗克常数作为一个参数自然地出现。

It is shown that the problem of the quantization of light field can be adapted as that of one_dimensional harmonic_oscillator (ODHO).The Schrdinger equation of a quantized ODHO is derived directly from classical mechanics by using the probability theory and variation method. It is found that ① light is only a kind of electromagnetic wave and the quantization of the energy (or momentum) of light field originates from the statistical average of the energies (or momenta) of electromagnetic oscillators;② the reduced Planck constant appears naturally as a parameter in this theory.
