The quantum mechanical description of the light
- Light = particles called photons (quanta of electromagnetic energy).
- In 1900 Max Planck introduced of the idea of quantization of energy postulating that: “the energy of any oscillator can not be any desired value, but only the value related to its frequency”.
- Planck described light as discrete bundles of energy and proposed that the energy of a single photon is:
E=h·f where:• f is the frequency of the light;• n is the index of refraction of the medium (n = 1 for open space);• h is the Planck constant, which has the value:
h = 6.62 x 10-34 J·s (Joule x Second)= 4,14 x 10-15 eV.s (Electron volt x Second)

Bohr’s atom model
Niels Bohr postulated that: “the electrons in the atoms move in orbits about their nuclei with only certain allowed energies”

REFLECTION of the light
The reflection of light can be roughly categorized into two types of reflection: • specular reflection defined as light reflected from a smooth surface at a definite angle
•diffuse reflection, which is produced by rough surfaces that tend to reflect light in all directions
![Page 14: Introduction in Optics Dipl.Ing.Nicoleta PRICOPI](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081414/551452635503462d4e8b519d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
REFRACTION of the light
Refraction (or bending of the light) occurs as light passes from a one medium to another when there is a difference in the index of refraction between the two materials.
Refractive index (N) is defined as the relative speed at which light moves through a material with respect to its speed in a vacuum.
The index of refraction, N, of other transparent materials is defined through the equation:
By definition, the refractive index of a vacuum is defined as having a value of 1.0
![Page 15: Introduction in Optics Dipl.Ing.Nicoleta PRICOPI](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081414/551452635503462d4e8b519d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Snell's Law: N1 x sin(1) = N2 x sin(2)
When N(1) is greater than N(2), the angle of refraction is always smaller than the angle of incidence.
Alternatively when N(2) is greater than N(1) the angle of refraction is always greater than the angle of
incidence.
When the two refractive indices are equal (N(1) = N(2)), then the light is passed through without
refraction.
![Page 16: Introduction in Optics Dipl.Ing.Nicoleta PRICOPI](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081414/551452635503462d4e8b519d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
dispersion of the light
The index of refraction varies with the frequency of radiation (or wavelength) of light. This is occurs with all transparent media and has been termed dispersion.
As the wavelength of light increases, the refractive index decreases.
It is the dispersion of light by glass that is responsible for the familiar splittingof light into its component colors by a prism.

diffraction of the light
Diffraction is the process by which light waves traveling throught a small hole or slit that is phzsically the approximate size of even smallerthan the light’s wavelength and will spread out.

INTERFERENCE of the light
Interference is the interaction between waves traveling in the same medium.

polarization of the light
Light waves can vibrate in many directions. Those that are vibrating in one direction – in a single plane such as up and down –are called polarized light.

Characteristics of Laser Light
1.Coherence. Different parts of the laser beam are related to each other in phase. 2. Monochromaticity. Laser light consists of essentially one wavelength, having its origin in stimulated emission from one set of atomic energy levels.3.Collimated-laser beams are very narrow and do not spread very much.
