The Phi Equation

• This equation is the same as the plane rigid rotor, so it has the same solution:

an equation that was solved by Adrien Legendre about 180 years ago

Visualizing Complex Wave Functions

•Problems involving the quantization of angular momentum produce wave functions that are complex.•We encounter complex wave functions in:

–Planar Rigid Rotor–Rigid Rotor–Hydrogen Atom

Visualizing the Imaginary

• Note that spherical harmonics are real if m=0 and complex otherwise.

• A graphical representation of the real function functions is given below. Surfaces of (e.g. Y00, Y10, Y20) the function will only appear green and/or red, depending upon whether the function is positive or negative for those values of

• If the function is complex (e.g. Y11, Y21, etc. ) other colors represent

complex values. For example, if the function is proportional to +i or –i on a surface that can be displayed by yellow/blue.

Getting Rid of the Imaginary

• In most chemistry texts, atomic orbital wave functions are displayed as real functions. This is done by taking linear combinations of complex functions. Using the

complex functions… we define the normalized REAL wave functions:
