Quantisieren

To limit the number of possible values of a quantity, or states of a system, by applying the rules of quantum mechanics

Weil Energie auf atomarer Ebene nicht kontinuierlich ist, sagen Wissenschaftler, dass Energie in kleine Pakete „quantisiert“ wird, so dass das Atom nur bestimmte Mengen absorbieren oder emittieren kann.
