The preceding theories have been successful, but they are very phenomenological theories. However, the French mathematician Henri Poincaré first gave a systematic and rigorous definition of what quantization is in his 1912 paper "Sur la théorie des quanta".

The term "quantum physics" was first used in Johnston's Planck's Universe in Light of Modern Physics. (1931).
