It models the behavior of many physical systems, such as molecular vibrations or wave packets in quantum optics. The allowed energies of a quantum oscillator are discrete and evenly spaced. The energy spacing is equal to Planck’s energy quantum. The ground state energy is larger than zero. This means that, unlike a classical oscillator, a quantum oscillator is never at rest.
