Electromagnetic Waves in Matter

Mekanik dalgaların aksine, elektromanyetik dalgalar bir vakumda veya herhangi bir malzeme ortamında hareket edebilir.
Bir dielektrik ortamdan geçen elektromanyetik dalgayı düşünün. Böyle bir durumda, Maxwell denklemleri değiştirilir.
Ampere yasasında, ε0, dielektriğin geçirgenliği olan ε ile değiştirilir. Ayrıca, vakum geçirgenliği, ortamın geçirgenliği ile değiştirilir.
Faraday ve Ampere yasası kullanılarak türetilen elektrik ve manyetik alanlar arasındaki ilişkileri hatırlayın. Bir dielektrikteki dalganın hızı bir vakumdakiyle aynı olmadığından, "c" sabiti, azaltılmış bir hız "v" ile değiştirilir.
Bu iki ilişkiyi karşılaştırarak, bir dielektrikteki bir elektromanyetik dalganın hızı elde edilebilir.
Ferromanyetik malzemeler dışında, çoğu dielektriğin nispi geçirgenliği genellikle birliğe yakındır ve dielektrik sabiti her zaman birlikten daha büyüktür. Bu nedenle, dalga hızı, boşluktaki hıza kıyasla her zaman daha düşüktür.
Bir elektromanyetik dalganın vakumdaki hızının bir malzemedeki hıza oranı, malzemenin kırılma indisi olarak bilinir.

maddedeki elektromanyetik dalgalar

Elektromanyetik dalgalar hem boşlukta hem de maddede seyahat edebilir. Örneğin, elektromanyetik bir dalga olan ışık hava, su veya cam gibi maddelerden geçebilir.

Bir dielektrik ortamdan geçen elektromanyetik dalgayı düşünelim. Bu durumda, Maxwell'in denklemleri değiştirilir. Ampere yasasında, boşluğun dielektrik geçirgenliği olan Îµ0, dielektrik geçirgenliği olan Îµ ile değiştirilir. Ayrıca, vakum permeabilitesi olan Î¼0 yerine ortamın değeri olan Î¼ ile değiştirilir.

Ayrıca, Faraday ve Ampere kanunları kullanılarak elde edilen elektrik ve manyetik alanlar arasındaki ilişkilerin ifadesinde sabit hız olan c, dielektrikte bir azaltılmış hız olan v ile değiştirilir. Bu iki ilişki karşılaştırılarak, bir dielektrikteki elektromanyetik dalganın hızı elde edilebilir.

<img alt="Equation1" src="/files/ftp_upload/13825/13825_Equation_1.svg" style="text-align: center; height: 38px;" />

Birçok dielektrik için, göreceli permeabilite olan Î¼m yaklaşık olarak birliğe eşittir ve yalıtkan ferromanyetik malzemeler hariç tutulur. Dielektrik sabiti olan Îµ her zaman birimden büyüktür, bu nedenle bir dielektrik içindeki elektromanyetik dalgaların hızı her zaman vakumdaki hızdan daha küçüktür.

<img alt="Equation2" src="/files/ftp_upload/13825/13825_Equation_2.svg" style="text-align: center; height: 30px;" />

Optikte, vakumdaki hızın bir malzemede hızına olan oranına malzemenin kırılma indisi denir. Dielektrik sabiti frekansa bağlı bir fonksiyondur. Örneğin, su için dielektrik sabiti sabit alanlar için 80,4 iken görünür ışık frekans aralığında yaklaşık olarak 1,8'dir.

how light slows in materials

Electromagnetic waves can travel through matter as well as through vacuum. Light is one example. It can move through air, water, or glass. When an electromagnetic wave passes through a dielectric medium, the equations that describe it change.

In Ampere's law, the permittivity of free space, ε0, is replaced by the permittivity of the dielectric, ε. The vacuum permeability, μ0, is also replaced by the permeability of the medium, μ. The wave speed c in vacuum is then replaced by a lower speed, v, in the relations found from Faraday's law and Ampere's law.

By comparing those relations, the speed of an electromagnetic wave in a dielectric can be found. For most dielectrics, the relative permeability κm is nearly 1. This is not true for insulating ferromagnetic materials. Because the dielectric constant κ is always greater than 1, electromagnetic waves travel more slowly in a dielectric than in vacuum.

In optics, the ratio of the speed in vacuum to the speed in a material is called the refractive index. The dielectric constant also changes with frequency. Water, for example, has a dielectric constant of 80.4 for steady fields, but it is about 1.8 in the visible-light range.

Maxwell’s Equations Behind EM Waves

Maxwell’s equations explain how electric and magnetic fields work together to create electromagnetic waves. James Clerk Maxwell brought together the ideas of Oersted, Coulomb, Gauss, and Faraday and built a single theory of electromagnetism. Together with the Lorentz force law, his equations describe the laws of electricity and magnetism. A key part of Maxwell’s work is the symmetry in the equations. Faraday’s law shows that a changing magnetic field produces an electric field. Maxwell added...

Hertz's Spark Gaps and Radio Waves

Heinrich Hertz used sparks and tuned circuits to show that electromagnetic waves could be produced in the lab. Starting in 1887, the German physicist ran experiments that confirmed electromagnetic waves exist and travel at the speed of light. Hertz built an alternating-current RLC circuit. RLC stands for resistor, inductor, and capacitor. The circuit was set to a known resonant frequency and connected to a loop of wire. High voltage across the gap in the loop created sparks. Those sparks gave...

the electromagnetic spectrum

Electromagnetic Waves in Everyday Technology

Electromagnetic waves are grouped by wavelength and frequency. This set of waves is called the electromagnetic spectrum. It includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Radio waves have wavelengths from millimeters to kilometers. They are often used for audio communication, such as radios. In many cases, they come from alternating current in the wires of a broadcast antenna. Radio waves also carry AM and FM radio, cellular phone signals, and TV signals. <br...

electromagnetic wave equation

How Maxwell Linked Light to Waves

Maxwell's equations show how electric and magnetic fields behave in a vacuum, or empty space. They are written as differential equations and describe fields created by source charges, whether the charges are still or moving. These fields also act on a test charge, and its motion can be found with the right boundary conditions. The key question in empty space is what happens when there are no source charges. In the vacuum form of Maxwell's four equations, the first-order partial differential...

Transverse Fields in Electromagnetic Waves

Electromagnetic waves are made of electric and magnetic fields that move through space together. Maxwell's equations predict these waves, and they can travel in free space without a medium. The electric field acts on a stationary charge, while the magnetic field acts on a moving charge. For a wave traveling along the x-axis, the fields are written as Ey(x, t) and Bz(x, t). In free space, there are no free charges or currents, so the charge enclosed and current terms in Maxwell's equations are...

plane electromagnetic waves ii

Faraday’s Law in a Plane Wave

Faraday’s law can be used to link the electric and magnetic fields in a plane electromagnetic wave. Here, the wavefront moves in the x-direction at a constant speed. The goal is to show how the field strengths must be related for the wave to stay consistent with Faraday’s law. To apply the law, a rectangle of width a is placed with its area vector in the positive z-direction. The line integral is taken counterclockwise around the rectangle. One side lies outside the wavefront, so the electric...

Maxwell’s Equations and Light Speed

Electromagnetic waves follow Ampere’s law when there is no conduction current. A plane wavefront moves in the positive x-direction. To analyze it, a rectangle is placed in the xz-plane with its area vector pointing in the positive y-direction. The line integral around the rectangle is taken counterclockwise. The magnetic field is zero on some sides and perpendicular on others. It is parallel to one side, and that side gives a non-zero contribution to the integral. Because the left side of...

When an electromagnetic wave passes through a dielectric medium, the equations that describe it change. In Ampere's law, the permittivity of free space, ε0, is replaced by the permittivity of the dielectric, ε. The vacuum permeability, μ0, is also replaced by the permeability of the medium, μ. The wave speed c in vacuum is then replaced by a lower speed, v,...

energy carried by electromagnetic waves

How EM Waves Transfer Energy

Electromagnetic waves transfer energy through their electric and magnetic fields. This energy can be easy to notice, like the warmth from the summer sun, or harder to feel, like the energy in gamma rays that can damage living cells. The fields in an electromagnetic wave can exert forces on charges in a system. They can move those charges and do work on them. Even if a wave is not absorbed right away, it still carries energy away from its source. If some of the wave energy is absorbed, the...

intensity of electromagnetic waves

Poynting Vector and Light Intensity

The Poynting vector describes the energy flux of an electromagnetic wave. It tells how much energy passes through a unit area in a unit time at a specific moment. For a plane electromagnetic wave moving along the x-axis, the energy flux depends on the peak electric field E0 and the peak magnetic field B0. For high-frequency waves, the energy flux changes very quickly with time. Visible light has a frequency on the order of 10^14 Hz, so its energy flux varies too fast to track directly. Most...

momentum and radiation pressure

Radiation Pressure in Light and Comets

Radiation pressure is the force that electromagnetic waves can exert on matter. It appears because light carries momentum, so an object that absorbs a wave feels a push in the direction the wave travels. This same force helps explain why sunlight can affect small particles in space. Maxwell predicted radiation pressure, and Nichols and Hull confirmed it in 1903. They used a torsion balance with mirrors suspended from a fiber inside a glass container. When they shone light on one mirror, the...

radiation pressure: problem solving

Radiation Pressure in Light and Space

Radiation pressure is the push that light can exert on matter. When an electromagnetic wave is completely absorbed by a surface, its energy density is transferred as momentum to that surface. The rate of momentum transfer on a surface perpendicular to the wave gives the force, and the force per unit area is the radiation pressure. A perfectly absorbing surface receives this pressure directly from the incoming wave. If the surface is perfectly reflecting, such as a metal surface, and the light...

standing electromagnetic waves

Electromagnetic Wave Reflection at Conductors

Electromagnetic waves can reflect from a conductor or a dielectric. When the reflected wave combines with the incoming wave, the result is a standing electromagnetic wave. This is similar to the standing waves formed on a stretched string. To see how this happens, consider a perfect conductor placed in the yz-plane. A linearly polarized electromagnetic wave moving in the negative x-direction strikes the surface. The electric field cannot have a component parallel to the surface of a perfect...

standing waves in a cavity

Electromagnetic Modes in a Microwave Cavity

Electromagnetic waves can form standing patterns inside a cavity. Household microwaves and lasers are common examples of this effect. When two conducting metal plates are placed parallel at the nodal planes, they create a space where standing waves can exist. The cavity between the plates works like a stretched string fixed at x = 0 and x = L. The distance L must be an integer multiple of half a wavelength. The wavelengths that meet this condition have matching frequencies, and each frequency,...
