Chen, Jing – European Journal of Physics Education, 2019
We calculate the frequency of matter-wave of electrons orbiting the hydrogen nucleus at the ground state. It is the same as the value of light frequency corresponding to the ground state from the Rydberg's formula. The result will stimulate students' interest to further understand the mechanisms of quantum theory.

Arlego, Marcelo; Fanaro, Maria de los Angeles – European Journal of Physics Education, 2017
In this work, we present a pedagogical strategy to describe the diffraction phenomenon based on a didactic adaptation of the Feynman's path integrals method, which uses only high school mathematics. The advantage of our approach is that it allows to describe the diffraction in a fully quantum context, where superposition and probabilistic aspects…

Singh, Satya Pal – European Journal of Physics Education, 2013
In this paper of I have reviewed the test done for validating the special theory of relativity using masers and lasers in last one century. Michelson-Morley did the first experimental verification for the isotropy of space for the propagation of light in 1887. It has an accuracy of 1/100th of a fringe shift. The predicted fringe shift on the basis…

Cepic, Mojca – European Journal of Physics Education, 2012
The introduction of teaching about liquid crystals is discussed from several points of view: the rationale why to teach them, the basics about liquid crystals or what the teacher should teach about them, the fundamental pre-knowledge of students required, the set of experiments accompanying the teaching and the brief report on the already…
