Please go to

and investigate the properties of the spherical harmonics. On this page the two quantum numbers are
called l and m.
In the upper right there are boxes for choosing between the +m complex
function, the –m complex function, the real cosine function and the “real” sine
function. (The sine function itself is
real but the normalization constant includes i.)
It is also possible to choose between the wave function (which is often
complex) and the wave function squared, which is a distribution function and is
always both real and non-negative.
The values of l and m can be varied, but the software prevents illegal values
of m (|m| > l). Remember that s, p,
d, and f orbitals correspond to l = 0, 1, 2, and 3. Since the –m wave functions are selected in
the upper right the value of m in the box at the bottom cannot be negative.
(If m=0 the +m and –m and cosine functions are all the same. If m=0 no sine function is displayed).
