They offer a decided advantage over other display technologies, such as cathode ray tubes, in that they are much lighter and thinner and consume a lot less power to operate. LCD technology relies on special electrical and optical properties of a class of materials known as liquid crystals, first discovered in the 1880s by botanist Friedrich Reinitzer. Physical Principle Liquid crystals are neither a pure solid nor a pure liquid, but rather a hybrid of both. One particular variety of interest is the twisted nematic liquid crystal whose molecules have a natural tendency to assume a twisted spiral structure when the material is sandwiched between finely grooved glass substrates with orthogonal orientations (A). Note that the molecules in contact with the grooved surfaces align themselves in parallel along the grooves. The molecular spiral causes the crystal to behave like a wave polarizer; unpolarized light incident upon the entrance substrate follows the orientation of the spiral, emerging through the exit substrate with its polarization (direction of electric field) parallel to the groove’s direction. 320 Lesson #47 Chapter — Section: 7-4 Topics: Waves in lossy media Highlights: • Attenuation and skin depth • Low loss medium • Good conductor Special Illustrations: • CD-ROM Demos 7.6-7.8 321 Lesson #48 Chapter — Section: 7-5 Topics: Current flow in conductors Highlights: • Skin depth dependence on frequency • Surface impedance Special Illustrations: 322 Lesson #49 Chapter — Section: 7-6 Topics: EM power density Highlights: • Power density in a lossless medium • Power density in a lossy medium • Time-average power Special Illustrations: • CD-ROM Module 7.5 CHAPTER 7 323 Chapter 7 Section 7-2: Propagation in Lossless Media Problem 7.1 The magnetic field of a wave propagating through a certain nonmagnetic material is given by 8 ¢ H £ zˆ 30cos 10 t 0 5y (mA/m) ¨ Find (a) the direction of wave propagation, (b) the phase velocity, (c) the wavelength in the material, (d) the relative permittivity of the material, and (e) the electric field phasor.

A rectangular vibrating surface one foot long is vibrating at 2000 Hz. Assuming the speed of sound is 1000 feet per second, at what angle off axis should the beam's amplitude drop to zero? 3. How many dB less does a cardioid microphone pick up from an incoming sound 90 degrees (π=2 radians) off-axis, compared to a signal coming in frontally (at the angle of highest gain)? 4. Suppose a sound's SPL is 0 dB (i.e., it's about the threshold of hearing at 1 kHz.) What is the total power that you ear receives? (Assume, a bit generously, that the opening is 1 square centimeter). 5. If light moves at 3 · 108 meters per second, and if a certain color has a wavelength of 500 nanometers (billionths of a meter - it would look green to human eyes), what is the frequency? Would it be audible if it were a sound?

  • Anharmonic Waves in Quantum Electrodynamics
    Anharmonic Waves in Field Theory F. J. Himpsel Physics Department, University of Wisconsin Madison, Madison WI 53706, USA Abstract This work starts from the premise that sinusoidal plane waves cease to be solutions of field theories when turning on an interaction. A nonlinear interaction term generates harmonics analogous to those observed in nonlinear optical media. This calls for a generalization to anharmonic waves in both classical and quantum field theory. Three simple requirements make anharmonic waves compatible with relativistic field theory and quantum physics. Some non-essential concepts have to be abandoned, such as orthogonality, the superposition principle, and the existence of single-particle energy eigenstates. The most general class of anharmonic waves allows for a zero frequency term in the Fourier series, which corresponds to a quantum field with a non-zero vacuum expectation value. Anharmonic quantum fields are defined by generalizing the expansion of a field operator into creation and annihilation operators. This method provides a framework for handling exact quantum fields, which define exact single particle states. ____________________________________ Electronic address: [email protected] 1 Contents 1.

  • Chapter 7. Electromagnetic Wave Propagation
    Essential Graduate Physics EM: Classical Electrodynamics Chapter 7. Electromagnetic Wave Propagation This (rather extensive) chapter focuses on the most important effect that follows from the time- dependent Maxwell equations, namely the electromagnetic waves, at this stage avoiding a discussion of their origin, i.e. the radiation process – which will the subject of Chapters 8 and 10. The discussion starts from the simplest, plane waves in uniform and isotropic media, and then proceeds to non-uniform systems, bringing up such effects as reflection and refraction. Then we will discuss the so-called guided waves, propagating along various long transmission lines – such as coaxial cables, waveguides, and optical fibers. Finally, the end of the chapter is devoted to final-length fragments of such lines, serving as resonators, and to effects of energy dissipation in transmission lines and resonators. 7.1. Plane waves Let us start from considering a spatial region that does not contain field sources ( = 0, j = 0), and is filled with a linear, uniform, isotropic medium, which obeys Eqs. (3.46) and (5.110): D E,B H . (7.1) Moreover, let us assume for a while, that these constitutive equations hold for all frequencies of interest. (Of course, these relations are exactly valid for the very important particular case of free space, where we may formally use the macroscopic Maxwell equations (6.100), but with = 0 and = 0.) As was already shown in Sec. 6.8, in this case, the Lorenz gauge condition (6.117) allows the Maxwell equations to be recast into the wave equations (6.118) for the scalar and vector potentials.

  • Lecture 7 More on Constitute Relations, Uniform Plane Wave
    Lecture 7 More on Constitute Relations, Uniform Plane Wave 7.1 More on Constitutive Relations As have been seen, Maxwell's equations are not solvable until the constitutive relations are included. Here, we will look into depth more into various kinds of constitutive relations. 7.1.1 Isotropic Frequency Dispersive Media First let us look at the simple linear constitutive relation previously discussed for dielectric media where [29], [31][p. 82], [42] D = "0E + P (7.1.1) We have a simple model where P = "0χ0E (7.1.2) where χ0 is the electric susceptibility. When used in the generalized Ampere's law, P, the polarization density, plays an important role for the flow of the displacement current through space. The polarization density is due to the presence of polar atoms or molecules that become little dipoles in the presence of an electric field. For instance, water, which is H2O, is a polar molecule that becomes a small dipole when an electric field is applied. We can think of displacement current flow as capacitive coupling yielding polarization current flow through space. Namely, for a source-free medium, @D @E @P r × H = = " + (7.1.3) @t 0 @t @t 63 64 Electromagnetic Field Theory Figure 7.1: As a series of dipoles line up end to end, one can see a current flowing through the line of dipoles as they oscillate back and forth in their polarity. This is similar to how displacement current flows through a capacitor. For example, for a sinusoidal oscillating field, the dipoles will flip back and forth giving rise to flow of displacement current just as how time-harmonic electric current can flow through a capacitor as shown in Figure 7.1.

Namely, for a source-free medium, @D @E @P r × H = = " + (1.3) @t 0 @t @t Figure 1: For example, for a sinusoidal oscillating field, the dipoles will flip back and forth giving rise to flow of displacement current just as how time-harmonic electric current can flow through a capacitor as shown in Figure 1.

    Lecture 7 More on Constitute Relations, Uniform Plane Wave 7.1 More on Constitutive Relations As have been seen, Maxwell's equations are not solvable until the constitutive relations are included. Here, we will look into depth more into various kinds of constitutive relations. Now that we have learned phasor technique, we can have a more general constitutive relationship compared to what we have seen earlier. 7.1.1 Isotropic Frequency Dispersive Media First let us look at the simple linear constitutive relation previously discussed for dielectric media where [30], [31][p. 82], [43] D = "0E + P (7.1.1) We have a simple model where P = "0χ0E (7.1.2) where χ0 is the electric susceptibility. When used in the generalized Ampere's law, P, the polarization density, plays an important role for the flow of the displacement current through space. The polarization density is due to the presence of polar atoms or molecules that become little dipoles in the presence of an electric field. For instance, water, which is H2O, is a polar molecule that becomes a small dipole when an electric field is applied. We can think of displacement current flow as capacitive coupling yielding polarization current flow through space. Namely, for a source-free medium, @D @E @P r × H = = " + (7.1.3) @t 0 @t @t 61 62 Electromagnetic Field Theory Figure 7.1: As a series of dipoles line up end to end, one can see a current flowing through the line of dipoles as they oscillate back and forth in their polarity. This is similar to how displacement current flows through a capacitor.
