Conceptual Overview of Wave-Particle Nature of Light (II)
20 Setembro 2024, 14:30 • José Figueiredo
Electromagnetic monochromatic plane wave, wave vector (propagation constant), phase velocity, wave equation, ideal plane and spherical waves, optical divergence, Gaussian beams, beam quality (M2 factor), refractive index, dispersion, photons (relativistic energy and energy and momentum relations). Group velocity, group refractive index. Pointing vector, instantaneous and average irradiance, inverse square law. Snell’s law, critical angle, total internal reflection. Fresnel’s equations, polarization or Brewster angle, attenuation coefficient and penetration depth: Optical tunnelling.
