... propagation of light, some scientists sought to explain why light obeyed its laws. Furthermore, new optical phenomena were discovered which were not accounted for by geometrical optics. First there was diffraction, which is the occurrence of light where there should be none according to geometrical ...

... the optical field. Additionally, due to its liquid like behavior, this relative orientation can be easily tuned by using electric, magnetic or optical fields [1-6], so anisotropy and tuning capability are the two main properties that make LCs so attractive. In the preceding paragraph we spoke about ...

... community [24]. Note that the term “light field” was first used in a translated work on illumination engineering in the 1930s [23,25], but this is not in the sense of an electromagnetic field, which underlines the principles of optics [26]. The value of Lu; v; x; y is the amount of light—known as ...

... By using the retrieved effective parameters of the metamaterial at 6.1 GHz, we obtain a very small ratio between the cross and the cocircular polarization transmission δ ≈ 0.004, indicating that a circularly polarized incident light only couples to the propagating mode of the same helicity. This is ...

Therefore, the tangential component of E will be zero just beneath the charge. In order to satisfy the “zero tangential component requirement” at the o ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



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"".
