... As already seen in Figure 1 and Equation 2, lossless Drude’s metals have negative permittivities for ω < ω p (or λ > λ p ). The absolute values of these permittivities increase with the wavelength, exceeding the values found in dielectrics. Semiconductors [26] and graphene [9, 25] have also been use ...

... spatial manipulations of the HeNe beam in order to obtain an approximate plane wave. We will first analyze the spatial filter, and how it works to clean up the starting beam. Then, we will collimate an expanded beam that has a low divergence angle, giving rise to a good plane wave approximation near ...

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"".
