    Extractions: Introduction P hysics is fascinating because of the intellectual excitement it provides and because of the applications it offers. In the Group of Applied Physics (GAP) at Geneva University we get our inspiration from both of these motivations. Optics, in this respect, has a privileged place. Indeed, in modern optics, experiments and theory progress hand-in-hand, and practical applications are close behind. Consequently, we can work both on conceptual issues and on applications. Moreover, it is a very good time for optics! The fascinating new insight about quantum mechanics brought about by recent quantum optics experiments on one side, and the tremendous development of optical communications on the other, illustrates our privileged position! T he American Research Council has recently declared optics as the technology of the 21st century. In contrast, a famous physicist, Michael Berry, has declared that the 21st century will be shaped by quantum physics, in a way similar to electrodynamics, which shaped the 20th century. Our position in GAP-Optique, at the crossroads between optics and quantum physics, ensures our participation to both challenges. Prof. Nicolas Gisin

We use coherent soft x-rays for optics experiments. Much of our effort is directed towards using Fresnel zone plates to produce one of the smallest focused spots of electromagnetic waves of any wavelength, and exploiting these nanofocused beams for studies of biological and environmental science specimens; and obtaining images from the reconstruction of holograms and diffraction patterns of non-crystalline specimens.

    http://physics.tamuk.edu/~suson/html/4323/fiber.html
    
    Extractions: Another mechanism for efficiently conducting light from one point in space to another is via transparent, dielectric fibers. As long as the diameter of these fibers is large compared with the wavelength of the radiation, the inherent wave nature of the propagation mechanism is of little importance and the process obeys the familiar laws of geometrical optics. If the diameter is of the order of , the transmission more closely resembles the manner in which microwaves advance along waveguides. Consider a straight glass cylinder surrounded by air. Light striking its walls from within will be totally internally reflected, provided that the incident angle at each reflection is greater than , where n f is the index of the cylinder or fiber. If the fiber has a diameter D and a length L , the path length traversed by the ray will be The number of reflections is then given by rounded off to the nearest whole number. The 1, which depends on where the ray strikes the end face, is of no significance when

    Extractions: Physics Study Guide Linear Motion Force Momentum ... Magnetism Optics Greek alphabet Mirrors and lenses edit Light is that range of elektromagnetic energy that is visible to the human eye, the visible colors. The optical radiation includes not only the visible range, but a broader range of invisible elektromagnetic radiation that could be influenced in its radiation behavior in a similar way as the visible radiation, but needs often other transmitters or receivers for this radiation. Dependant on the kind of experimental question light - optical radiation behaves as a wave or a particle named lightwave or photon. The birth or death of photons needs electrons - electromagnetic charges, that change their energy. In a wave we have to distinguish between the speed of transport of energy or the speed of the transport of on phase state of a wave of a defined frequency. In vacuum the speed of waves of any photon energy - wavelength is the same, but the transmission speed through materia is dependant on wavelength - photon energy. At the time the measurement of the speed of light in vacuum reached the uncertainty of the unit of lenght, the meter, this basic unit got in 1960 a new definition, based on the unit of time. Taking the best known measurement values it was defined without any uncertainties of length, that the speed of light is 299.792,458 meters per second. For this reason the only uncertainty in the speed of light is the uncertainty of the realisation of the unit of time, the second.

    Extractions: Virtual physics is the collection of programs simulating physical phenomena. They can be used as demonstration tools at school or for individual studies and experiments at home. See what you can never see in nature! The most exiting feature of Virtual Physics is that you can perform and observe many experiments you can never see either in nature or in the school laboratory, eg. stars moving on their orbits or the motion of the molecules of gas. The program consists of 13 modules covering: Diffraction, Dynamics, Electrostatics, Gravity, Kepler Laws, Kinematics, Kirchhoff Laws, Optics, Oscillations, Projectiles, Thermodynamics, Vectors and Waves. Main Menu With this module you can observe diffraction. It occurs when light bends around an obstacle or, as in our experiment, passes through a slit. If the slit is comparable or narrower than the length of the light wave, the light bends. In fact the slit acts then as a separate wave source. Diffraction With this module you can investigate the motion of a block sliding down an inclined plane as a result of Earth's gravity force. You can select one of the two visualization modes - realistic or model one. In the latter you will be able to see vectors of the forces exerted on the block.

    Extractions: Germany The aim of these annual meetings is to provide a common platform for exchange of ideas, scientific results and instrumental techniques, with the only requirement that there exists a relation to atmospheric studies by optical methods. Even if the meetings are announced as European meetings, and European countries take turns in organising them, people from all over the world are welcomed to attend. The Annual Optical Meetings were started in Stockholm in the fall of 1973, with the intention of bringing together scientists, engineers and students using optical methods to study the upper atmosphere. In 2002 the meeting is organized by the Leibniz-Institute of Atmospheric Physics The meeting is chaired by Prof. Dr. Franz-Josef L¼bken.

    Extractions: o and its reflected ray. Since we think of light as coming from rays diverging from an object, it appears that the reflected light comes from a point behind the mirror. Dash the reflected rays behind the mirror until they meet and label this point I for image. Compare the distances of O and I from the mirror. A light beam is incident upon a parallel glass plate, as shown in Fig. 5 below. Find the angle of (a) refraction at the first glass surface, (b) incidence at the lower glass-air surface, (c) refraction as the ray goes from glass to air. Use these angles to trace the path of the ray from air to glass and then from glass to air.

    Extractions: Because I wanted to be able to do quick Mie calculation without needing to compile Mie code each and every time, I created an interactive web page that allows me (and you!) to do your own Mie scattering calculations! This does not help you much if you need to run many simulations, or you actually want to numbers from the simulation. Let me state that the best Mie codes are in Fortran. Period. The C versions have not been validated nearly as rigorously. Go to the ScatterLib for a complete selection of codes. I particularly recommend Wiscombe's code for homogeneous spheres You might also start at his home page and find other useful light propagation codes and papers. This will have links to various Mie scattering codes as well as references If you must have C code, then you can either use a the Fortran code with a Fortan-to-C converter, or write your own. I am embarrassed to say that I wrote my own. I have used Wiscombe's Mie testing data to validate this code and I can say that it only fails in a few extreme cases. This is the code that is used with the interactive calculator above. The source code is written in CWEB , which allows excellent documentation of scientific programs. Unfortunately, the C source has comments, but since I never look at the C source, it does not bother me.
