Description

In this paper, the problems existing in the concepts of Planck’s energy element and Einstein’s light quantum are analyzed, and the alternate concept of quantum and a new concept of electron transition power were proposed. This paper clarififies the common misunderstanding in classical electromagnetics that the electron will radiate electromagnetic wave when it moves around the nucleus in a uniform circular motion and points out that the electron will radiate and absorb electromagnetic waves only when it moves around the nucleus in an accelerated or decelerated motion with a change of frequency and expounds the classical physical mechanism of quantum generation. Based on this, the quantization of electron orbital energy level of hydrogen atom and the phenomenon of spectrum are explained without Bohr’s “quantization hypothesis.” In addition, the photoelectric effect is explained by using the modifified quantum concept. The modifified quantum concept and its mechanism of classical physics break the gap between macro and micro physics, eliminate the contradiction between “classical physics” and “quantum mechanics,” and lay an important foundation for the reconstruction of unifified macro and micro physics.
