Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In quantum mechanics, spatial quantization is the quantization of angular momentum in three-dimensional space. It results from the fact that the angular momentum of a rigid rotor is expressed in three dimensions, and is quantized. For a rigid rotor, it is possible to know L2 (the square of the magnitude of angular momentum) and Lz (the z-component of angular momentum) simultaneously because these two quantum mechanical operators commute. However, it is not possible to know Lx and Ly, which are the other two components of angular momentum, simultaneously and exactly.
