Occurs when a wave enters a more dense medium (n < e m > 1 < n < / e m > 2 n<em>1 < n</em>2 n < e m > 1 < n < / e m > 2 ). The angle of refraction is smaller than the angle of incidence (θ < e m > t < θ < / e m > i \theta<em>t < \theta</em>i θ < e m > t < θ < / e m > i ). Outward Refraction:
Occurs when a wave enters a less dense medium (n < e m > 1 > n < / e m > 2 n<em>1 > n</em>2 n < e m > 1 > n < / e m > 2 ). The angle of refraction is larger than the angle of incidence (θ < e m > t > θ < / e m > i \theta<em>t > \theta</em>i θ < e m > t > θ < / e m > i ). Total Internal Reflection Critical Angle: The angle of incidence at which the refraction angle is 90 degrees.
Total Internal Reflection: When the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle, the wave is totally reflected back into the original medium.
Surface waves exist on the transmission side. The reflection coefficient (Γ \Gamma Γ ) equals 1 (Γ = 1 \Gamma = 1 Γ = 1 ). Optical Fiber Components:
Fiber core (index of refraction n f n_f n f ). Cladding (index of refraction n c n_c n c ). Surrounding medium (index of refraction n 0 n_0 n 0 ). Acceptance Cone: Defines the range of angles within which light can enter the fiber and be guided through it via total internal reflection.
Waveguiding: Waves can be guided along optical fibers due to successive internal reflections.
Example: Light Beam Passing Through a Slab Setup: A dielectric slab (index of refraction n < e m > 2 n<em>2 n < e m > 2 ) surrounded by a medium with index of refraction n < / e m > 1 n</em>1 n < / e m > 1 .
Condition: If the incidence angle (θ < e m > i \theta<em>i θ < e m > i ) is less than the critical angle (θ < / e m > c \theta</em>c θ < / e m > c ), the emerging beam is parallel to the incident beam.
Solution:
At the upper surface: sin θ < e m > 2 sin θ < / e m > 1 = n < e m > 1 n < / e m > 2 \frac{\sin \theta<em>2}{\sin \theta</em>1} = \frac{n<em>1}{n</em>2} s i n θ < / e m > 1 s i n θ < e m > 2 = n < / e m > 2 n < e m > 1 ( 8.33 ) (8.33) ( 8.33 ) At the lower surface: sin θ < e m > 3 sin θ < / e m > 2 = n < e m > 2 n < / e m > 1 \frac{\sin \theta<em>3}{\sin \theta</em>2} = \frac{n<em>2}{n</em>1} s i n θ < / e m > 2 s i n θ < e m > 3 = n < / e m > 1 n < e m > 2 ( 8.34 ) (8.34) ( 8.34 ) Combining the equations: sin θ < e m > 3 = n < / e m > 2 n < e m > 1 sin θ < / e m > 2 = n < e m > 2 n < / e m > 1 ⋅ n < e m > 1 n < / e m > 2 sin θ < e m > 1 = sin θ < / e m > 1 \sin \theta<em>3 = \frac{n</em>2}{n<em>1} \sin \theta</em>2 = \frac{n<em>2}{n</em>1} \cdot \frac{n<em>1}{n</em>2} \sin \theta<em>1 = \sin \theta</em>1 sin θ < e m > 3 = n < e m > 1 n < / e m > 2 sin θ < / e m > 2 = n < / e m > 1 n < e m > 2 ⋅ n < / e m > 2 n < e m > 1 sin θ < e m > 1 = sin θ < / e m > 1 Therefore: θ < e m > 3 = θ < / e m > 1 \theta<em>3 = \theta</em>1 θ < e m > 3 = θ < / e m > 1 Conclusion: The slab displaces the beam's position, but the beam's direction remains unchanged.
