- E=h(freq)
Solved Ultraviolet Catastrophe
Albert Einstein

Light intensity determines # of electrons, not electron energy
Niels Bohr
- built simple atom model based on Sharp Line Emission Spectra
- - leads to Quantum or Wave Mechanics
L. de Broglie
- proposed all moving objects have wave properties
- (mass)(velocity) = h/(wavelength)
E. Schrodinger
- applied e^- wave propeties
- wave equation
W. Heisenberg
- proposed that only either electron momentum or energy can be defined. not both
- Energy is the prefered value
