  2. Historically, optical theory developed roughly in the following : sequence: (1) ray optics  (2) wave optics  (3) electromagnetic optics  (4) quantum optics • The theory of quantum optics provides an explanation of virtually all optical phenomena. The theory of electromagnetic optics provides the most complete treatment of light within the confines of classicaloptics(electromagnetic optics, wave optics, ray optics) • Wave optics is a scalar approximation of electromagnetic optics. Ray optics is the limit of wave optics when the wavelength is very short.

  8. E x Direction of Propagation k x z z y B y An electromagnetic wave is a travelling wave which has time varying electric and magnetic fields which are perpendicular to each other and the direction of propagation, z. A. Plane Electromagnetic Wave

  9. A sinusoidal wave (1) Ex : the electric field at position z at time t Eo : the amplitude of the wave  : the angular frequency k=2/: the propagation constant o : phase constant (t-kz+o) : the phase of the wave

  10. E and B have constant phase in this xy plane; a wavefront z E E k Propagation B E x z A plane EM wave travelling along z , has the same E (or B ) at any point in a y x given xy plane. All electric field vectors in a given xy plane are therefore in phase. The xy planes are of infinite extent in the x and y directions. A monochromatic plane wave

  11. Eq. (1) can be rewritten as Ex(z,t)=Re[Eoexp(jo)expj(t-kz)] =Re [Ecexpj(t-kz)] (2) where Ec= Eoexp(jo) complex number that represents the amplitude of the wave and includes the constant phase information o

  13. E(r,t)=Eocos(t-kr+o) (3) where kr=kr =kxx+kyy+kzz The relationship between time and space for a given phase,  for example, that corresponding to a maximum field, according to Eq. (1):  =t-kz+o=constant (4) The phase velocity v=dz/dt=/k= (5)

  15. There are many types of possible EM waves: • Plane wave: the plane wave has no divergence • Spherical wave: wavefronts are spheres and k • vectors diverge out • E=(A/r)cos(t-kz) • where A is a constant • Divergent beam: the wavefront are slowly bent • away thereby spreading the wave (6)

  17. 2w: the beam diameter at any point z • w2: the cross sectional area at z point contains • 85% of the beam power • 2wo: the beam diameter at point O = the waist • of the beam =the spot size • wo: the waist radius • : divergence angle • 2=4/(2o) (7)

  18. In an isotropic and linear dielectric medium, these fields must obey Maxwell’s EM wave equation, (8) o : the absolute permeability o : the absolute permittivity r : the relative permittivity of the medium

  19. Refractive Index For an EM wave traveling in a nonmagnetic dielectric medium of relative permittivity r, the phase velocity v is given by v= 1/(roo)1/2 (9) For an EM wave traveling in free space, r=1, the phase velocity v is given by vvacuum= 1/(oo)1/2=c=3108ms-1 (10) The refractive index n of the medium: n=c/v= (r)1/2 (11)

  20. In free space, the wavenumber: (12) k=2/ In an isotropic medium, the wavenumber: kmedium=nk medium=/n (13a) (13b) Light propagates more slowly in a denser medium that has a higher refractive index, and the frequency remains the same.
