Review “Final Exam Topics” handed out in class. Index of refraction and ‘speed’ of light
The speed of light in vacuum is a physical constant.
c = 299 792 458 m/s (exact) ~ 3x108 m/s
In a medium, light generally propagates more slowly.
–  in air: v = c/1.0003
–  in water: v = c/1.33
–  in glass: v = c/1.52
nair = 1.00
nwater = 1.33
nglass = 1.52
In general:
v = c/n is the “phase velocity”
wavelength/n
frequency is the same (in linear optics)
n also depends on the wavelength è dispersion.
Snell’s Law Frequency is the same. 1.  Huygens’ principle
2.  Fermat’s principle
3.  Interference of all possible paths of light wave from source to observer
— it results in destructive interference everywhere except extrema of phase
(where interference is constructive)—which become actual paths.
4.  Application of the general boundary conditions of Maxwell equations for
electromagnetic radiation. è amplitude of reflected and refractive waves

5. Conservation of momentum based on translation symmetry considerations
Derive Snell’s Law by Transla?on Symmetry A homogeneous surface can not change the transverse momentum.
The propagation vector is proportional to the photon's momentum.
The transverse wave number must remain the same.

the telescope tube.

•  Maxwell showed that E and
B fields could sustain
themselves (free from
charges or currents) if they
took the form of an
electromagnetic (EM) wave.
•  Maxwell’s theory predicted
that an EM wave would
travel with speed:
v em =

ε 0 µ0
v em = c = speed of light
Light is an
electromagnetic
wave!
Anima?on hMp://www.walter-­‐fendt.de/ph14e/emwave.htm Electromagne?c (EM) Waves •  EM waves can travel through
empty space (vacuum); no
medium is necessary!
•  The speed of light c in empty
space is

c=
ε0µ0
= 299,792,458 m/s
c = 3x108 m/s

•  EM waves carry energy and momentum •  The speed is constant so the frequency f is determined by the wavelength λ and speed of light c: f = c /λ
ProperYes of ElectromagneYc Waves Any electromagne?c wave must sa?sfy four basic condi?ons: 1.  The fields E and B and are perpendicular to the
direction of propagation vem.Thus an
electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.
2.  E and B are perpendicular to each other in a manner
such that E × B is in the direction of vem.
3.  The wave travels in vacuum at speed vem = c
4.  E = cB at any point on the wave.
ProperYes of ElectromagneYc Waves The energy flow of an electromagne?c wave is described by the PoynYng vector defined as The magnitude of the Poyn?ng vector is The intensity of an electromagne?c wave whose electric field amplitude is E0 is Energy and Intensity S = E×H
•  PoynYng vector describes flows of E-­‐M power •  Power flow is directed along this vector (usually parallel to k) •  Intensity is average energy transfer (i.e. the ?me averaged Poyning vector: I=<S>=P/A, where P is the power (energy transferred per second) of a wave that impinges on area A. sin 2 ( kx − ω t )

This is just a Fourier Transform! Interes?ngly, it’s a Fourier Transform from posi?on, x0, to another posi?on variable, x1 (in another plane). Usually, the Fourier “conjugate variables” have reciprocal units (e.g., t & ω, or x & k). The conjugate variables here are really x0 and kx = kx1/z, which have reciprocal units. So the far-­‐field light field is the Fourier Transform of the apertured field!

If a < 0, the limits flip when we change variables, introducing a
minus sign, hence the absolute value.

Everything we’ve said about Fourier transforms between the t and ω
domains also applies to the x and k domains.
The 2D Fourier Transform F

If f(x,y) = fx(x) fy(y), then the 2D FT splits into two 1D FT's. But this doesn’t always happen. x
