Experiment VI Polarized Light
... this experiment. To verify that the laser and quarter wave plate are actually aligned properly, start a Logger Pro run and rotate the “analyzing polarizer” several times through a range of about 180o. If the variation in beam intensity is less than about 10%, then no further alignment will be needed ...

Chapter 2 Plane Waves and Refractive Index
... As was discussed in the previous chapter, we are primarily interested in sinusoidal solutions to Maxwell’s equations. This allows us to deal with individual frequencies, one at a time. When considering the propagation of light within a material medium, we are essentially unable to do anything else. ...

Waves What happens ? What happens if we continue to move hand
... 1. Main characteristics of waves: f, v, λ, A, T. 2. Frequency f is a “property” of the source. 3. Wave speed is a “property” of the medium. 4. Every point perturbed by the wave becomes a source for further wave 5. All perturbations that we discuss are linear. Therefore, we have the superposition pri ...

Two-dimensional control of light with light on metasurfaces
... Ideal performance requires a thin film or metasurface of deeply subwavelength thickness that absorbs 50% of a single beam illuminating the structure. Exploiting that the nanostructure of metasurfaces can be carefully engineered to achieve suitable optical properties and, guided by numerical modeling, ...

Thomas Young (scientist)
.jpg?width=300)
Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
