[[Quantum Mechanics]] is a branch of physics which deals with physical phenomena or “quantum” energy at the atomic and subatomic levels, providing a mathematical description of the dual particle-like and wave-like behavior and interactions between energy and matter. In physics, a quantum is the minimum amount of any physical entity involved in an interaction. Quantum is used to describe the fundamental framework for understanding how the Universe works at the smallest scales of energy units. | [[Quantum Mechanics]] is a branch of physics which deals with physical phenomena or “quantum” energy at the atomic and subatomic levels, providing a mathematical description of the dual particle-like and wave-like behavior and interactions between energy and matter.

At the center of Quantum Mechanics is the Planck-Einstein relation. Planck-Einstein's energy–frequency relation relates the energy of a photon, the Quantum of Light, to its electromagnetic wave and rate of frequency. Essentially, this formula quantifies the energy property of matter and its direct interrelationship with frequency and wavelength. This provides the framework for constructing quantum mechanical models at subatomic levels, which mathematically quantify the existence of multiple dimensions in time. <ref>Quantum of Light, September 2014</ref> | At the center of Quantum Mechanics is the Planck-Einstein relation.<ref>Wikipedia, Quantum Mechanics,</ref> Planck-Einstein's energy–frequency relation relates the energy of a photon, the Quantum of Light, to its electromagnetic wave and rate of frequency.
