His book, Treatise on light, makes fascinating reading even today. He brilliantly explained ® the double refraction shown by the mineral calcite in this work in addition to reflection and refraction. He was the first to analyse circular and simple harmonic motion and designed and built improved clocks and telescopes. He discovered the true geometry of Saturn’s rings. THOMAS YOUNG (1773 – 1829) ENGLISH Physicist, physician and Egyptologist. Young worked on a wide variety of scientific problems, ranging from the structure of the eye and the mechanism of vision to the decipherment of the Rosetta stone. He revived the wave theory of light and recognised that interference phenomena provide proof of the wave properties of light. 62  Physics : Wave Optics ® Pre-Medical WAVE OPTICS INTERFERENCE OF LIGHT 1. NATURE OF LIGHT Newton's corpuscular theory of light This theory was given by Newton.  Characteristics of the theory (i) Extremely minute, very light and elastic particles are being constantly emitted by all luminous bodies (light sources) in all directions which are known as corpuscles. (ii) These corpuscles travel with the speed of light.. (iii) When these corpuscles strike the retina of our eye then they produce the sensation of vision. ® (iv) The velocity of these corpuscles in vacuum is 3 × 108 m/s. (v) The different colours of light are due to different size of these corpuscles. (vi) The rest mass of these corpuscles is zero. (vii) The velocity of these corpuscles in an isotropic medium is same in all directions but it changes with the change of medium. (viii) These corpuscles travel in straight lines. (ix) These corpuscles are invisible.  The phenomena explained by this theory (i) Reflection and refraction of light. (ii) Rectilinear propagation of light. (iii) Existence of energy in light.  The phenomena not explained by this theory (i) Interference, diffraction, polarisation, double refraction and total internal reflection. (ii) Velocity of light being greater in rarer medium than that in a denser medium. (iii) Photoelectric effect Huygen's Wave theory of light This theory was enunciated by Huygen in a hypothetical medium known as luminiferrous ether. Ether is that imaginary medium which prevails in all space and is isotropic, perfectly elastic and massless. The velocity of light in a medium is constant but changes with change of medium. This theory is valid for all types of waves. (i) The locus of all ether particles vibrating in same phase is known as wavefront. (ii) Light travels in the medium in the form of wavefront. (iii) When light travels in a medium then the particles of medium start vibrating and consequently a disturbance is created in the medium. (iv) Every point on the wavefront becomes the source of secondary wavelets. It emits secondary wavelets in all directions which travel with the speed of light (v) The tangent plane to these secondary wavelets represents the new position of wave front. 63 ®  Physics : Wave Optics Pre-Medical original A2 A A1 A1 wavefront A Secondar wavefront 1 A2 1 secondar wavelets 2 y 2 S Propagation 3 of light-wave 3 B2 4 B B1 4 B2 B1 The phenomena explained by this theory ® (i) Reflection, refraction, interference, diffraction.

On this basis there are three types of wavefronts Comparative study of three types of Wavefront :- S.No. Wavefront Shape Diagram of Variation of Variation of of light shape of amplitude (A) Intensity (I) source wavefront with distance with distance 1 1 1 1.

(b) These wavefronts travel with the speed of light in all directions in an isotropic medium. (c) A point source of light always gives rise to a spherical wavefront in an isotropic medium. (d) In anisotropic medium it travels with different velocities in different directions. (e) Normal to the wavefront represents a ray of light. (f) It always travels in the forward direction in the medium. 2. INTERFERENCE OF LIGHT When two light waves of same frequency with constant phase difference superimpose over each other, then the resultant amplitude (or intensity) in the region of superimposition is different from the amplitude (or intensity) of individual waves. This modification in intensity in the region of superposition is called interference. ® (a) Constructive interference When resultant intensity is greater than the sum of two individual wave intensities [I > (I1 + I2)], then the interference is said to be constructive. (b) Destructive interference When the resultant intensity is less than the sum of two individual wave intensities [I < (I1 + I2)], then the interference is said to destructive. There is no violation of the law of conservation of energy in interference. Here, the energy from the points of minimum energy is shifted to the points of maximum energy. TYPES OF SOURCES  Coherent sources Two sources are said to be coherent if they emit light waves of the same frequency and start with same phase or have a constant phase difference. They are obtained from a single source. Note : Laser is a source of monochromatic light waves of high degree of coherence.  Incoherent sources Two independent monochromatic sources, emit waves of same frequency. Lamp S1 L1 But the waves are not in phase. So they are incoherent. This is because, atoms screen cannot emit light waves in same phase and these sources are said to be Lamp S2 incoherent sources. By using two independent laser beams it has been possible L2 to record the interference pattern. Independent Source (non-coherent source) METHODS OF OBTAINING COHERENT SOURCE  Division of wave front In this method, the wavefront is divided into two or more parts by reflection or refraction using mirrors, lenses or prisms. Illustration : Young's double slit experiment. P S1 S2 YDS 65 ®  Physics : Wave Optics Pre-Medical  Division of amplitude The amplitude of incoming beam is divided into two or more parts by partial reflection or refraction. These divided parts travel different paths and are finally brought together to produce interference. Illustration : The brilliant colour seen in a thin film of transparent material like soap film, oil film. thin film Condition for sustained interference To obtain the stationary interference pattern, the following conditions must be fulfilled : (a) The two sources should be coherent, i.e., they should vibrate in the same phase or there should be a constant phase difference between them. ® (b) The two sources must emit continuous waves of same wavelength and frequency. (c) The separation between two coherent sources should be small. (d) The distance of the screen from the two sources should be large. (e) For good contrast between maxima and minima, the amplitude of two interfering waves should be as nearly equal as possible and the background should be dark. (f) For a large number of fringes in the field of view, the sources should be narrow and monochromatic. ANALYSIS OF INTERFERENCE OF LIGHT When two light waves having same frequency and equal or nearly equal amplitude are moving in the same direction superimpose then different points have diffeent light intensities. At some point the intensity of light is maximum and at some point it is minimum this phenomenon is known as interference of light. Let two waves having amplitude a1 and a2 and same frequency, and constant phase difference φ superpose.

YOUNG'S DOUBLE SLIT EXPERIMENT (YDSE) According to Huygen, light is a wave. It is proved experimentally by YDSE. S is a narrow slit illuminated by a monochromatic source of light sends wave fronts in all directions. Slits S1 and S2 become the source of secondary wavelets which are in phase and of same frequency. These waves are superimposed on each other which give rise to interference. Alternate dark and bright bands are obtained on a screen (called interference fringes) placed certain distance from the plane of slit S1 and S2. Central fringe is always bright (due to path length S1O and S2O to centre of screen are equal) and is called central maxima. screen y z=0 S1 S1 x S O d S2 S2 D sodium S2 lamp  In YDSE division of wavefront takes place.  If one of the two slit is closed, the interference pattern disappears. It shows that two coherent sources are required to produce interference pattern.  If white light is used as parent source, then the fringes will be coloured and of unequal width. (i) Central fringe will be white. (ii) The fringe closest on either side of the central white fringe is red and the farthest will appear blue. After a few fringes, no clear fringe pattern is seen. 69 ®  Physics : Wave Optics Pre-Medical CONDITION FOR BRIGHT AND DARK FRINGES Bright Fringe D = distance between slit and screen, d = distance between slit S1 and S2 Bright fringe occurs due to constructive interference. λ  For constructive interference path difference should be even multiple of 2 λ ∴ Path difference δ = PS2 – PS1 = S2 L = (2n) P 2 xn δ xn In ∆PCO tanθ = ; In ∆S1S2L sinθ = D d S1 A dO θ θ δ = nλ for bright fringes δ C xn δ S2 B If θ is small then tanθ ~ sinθ ⇒ = D D d Dλ  The distance of nth bright fringe from the central bright fringe xn = n ® d Dark Fringe Dark fringe occurs due to destructive interference. λ  For destructive interference path difference should be odd multiple of. 2 λ ∴ Path difference δ = (2m –1) 2 (2m − 1)Dλ The distance of the mth dark fringe from the central bright fringe xm = 2d FRINGE WIDTH The distance between two successive second bright bright or dark fringe is known as fringe width. second dark β first bright (n + 1)Dλ nDλ = β x n +1 − x n = − d d (n+1) th first dark β central fringe dark fringe x= 0 n th central bright β Dλ Fringe Width β = dark fringe xn+1 first dark 2 d xn first bright β second dark ANGULAR FRINGE WIDTH S1 fringe α angular fringe β widt width β λ  β λ h Angular fringe width α= , α=  D = d  D d   S2 D 70  Physics : Wave Optics ® Pre-Medical nλ D The distance of n bright fringe from the central bright fringe x n = = nβ th  d λD λD  The distance between n1 and n2 bright fringe x n2 − x n1 = n2 − n1 = (n2 − n1 )β d d (2m − 1)Dλ (2m − 1)β  = The distance of mth dark fringe from central fringe xm = 2d 2 Dλ (2m − 1)Dλ (2m − 1)β  The distance of nth bright fringe from mth dark fringe x n − x m = n − = nβ − d 2d 2  (2m − 1)  x n − x m = n − β  2  GOLDEN KEY POINTS  If the whole apparatus is immersed in a liquid of refractive index µ, then wavelength of light ® λ λ' = since µ >1 so λ' < λ ⇒wavelength will decrease. Hence fringe width (β ∝ λ ) will decrease µ ⇒ fringe width in liquid β' = β/µ. Angular width will also decrease.  With increase in distance between slit and screen D, angular width of maxima does not change, fringe width β increases linearly with D but the intensity of fringes decreases.  If an additional phase difference of π is created in one of the wave then the central fringe becomes dark.  When wavelength λ1 is used to obtain a fringe n1. At the same point wavelength λ2 is required to obtain a fringe n2 then n1λ1= n2 λ2  When waves from two coherent sources S1 and S2 interfere in space the shape of the fringe is hyperbolic with foci at S1 and S2, if the distance D is very large compared to the fringe width, the fringes will be very nearly straight lines.

The obstacle or aperature does not shows diffraction.  Wavelength of light is of the order 10–7 m. In general obstacle of this wavelength is not present so light rays does not show diffraction and it appears to travel in straight line Sound wave shows more diffraction as compared to light rays because wavelength of sound is large (16 mm to 16m). So it is generally diffracted by the objects of our daily life.  Diffraction of ultrasonic waves is also not observed easily because their wavelength is of the order of about 1 cm. Diffraction of radio waves is very conveniently observed because of its very large wavelength (2.5 m to 250 m). X-rays can be diffracted easily by crystals.

FRESNEL DISTANCE & VALIDITY OF RAY OPTICS It is a distance upto which ray optics can be used. Beyond this distance spreading due to diffraction will be so large that we will not get clear image. It is a distance in which beam width becomes double due to diffraction. θ 2a 2λZ z = 2a a a a2 Z= λ This relation shows that for distance much smaller than Z, the spreading due to diffraction is smaller compared to the size of the beam. It becomes comparable when the distance is approximately Z. For distance much greater than Z, the spreading due to diffraction dominates over. Ray optics is not valid in this reion. Relation also shows that straight line propagation is valid in the limit of λ tending to zero. 80  Physics : Wave Optics ® Pre-Medical Illustration 21 Upto what distance we should apply ray optics (Fresnel distance) if beam width is 2mm and wave length of light 500 nm.

These effects do not tell us about the type of wave motion i.e., whether the light waves are longitudinal or transverse. The phenomenon of polarization has helped to establish beyond doubt that light waves are transverse waves. UNPOLARISED LIGHT An ordinary beam of light consists of a large number of waves emitted by the atoms of the light source. Each  atom produces a wave with its own orientation of electric vector E so all direction of vibration of are equally probable. Z Y Y X ® unpolarised light unpolarised light propagating along. X-axis The resultant electromagnetic wave is a superposition of waves produced by the individual atomic sources and it is called unpolarised light. In ordinary or unpolarised light, the vibrations of the electric vector occur symmetrically in all possible directions in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light. POLARISATION The phenomenon of restricting the vibration of light (electric vector) in a particular direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave is called polarisation of light. In polarised light, the vibration of the electric vector occur in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light and are confined to a single direction in the plane (do not occur symmetrically in all possible directions). After polarisation the vibrations become asymmetrical about the direction of propagation of light. POLARISER Tourmaline crystal : When light is passed through a tourmaline crystal cut parallel to its optic axis, the vibrations of the light carrying out of the tourmaline crystal are confined only to one direction in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of light. The emergent light from the crystal is said to be plane polarised light. Nicol Prism : A nicol prism is an optical device which can be used for the production and detection of plane polarised light. It was invented by William Nicol in 1828. Polaroid : A polaroid is a thin commercial sheet in the form of circular disc which makes use of the property of selective absorption to produce an intense beam of plane polarised light. PLANE OF POLARISATION AND PLANE OF VIBRATION : The plane in which vibrations of light vector and the direction of propogation lie is known as plane of vibration A plane normal to the plane of vibration and in which no vibration takes place is known as plane of polarisation A plane of vibration B E plane polarised light O' unpolarised G light F plane of D C polarisation 82  Physics : Wave Optics ® Pre-Medical EXPERIMENTAL DEMONSTRATION OF POLARISATION OF LIGHT Take two tourmaline crystals cut parallel to their crystallographic axis (optic axis). A P O Ordinary Polariser light First hold the crystal A normally to the path of a beam of colour light. The emergent beam will be slightly coloured. Rotate the crystal A about PO. No change in the intensity or the colour of the emergent beam of light. Take another crystal B and hold it in the path of the emergent beam of so that its axis is parallel to the axis of the crystal A. The beam of light passes through both the crystals and outcoming light appears coloured. A B P O ® Ordinary Polariser light Now, rotate the crystal B about the axis PO. It will be seen that the intensity of the emergent beam decreases and when the axes of both the crystals are at right angles to each other no light comes out of the crystal B. A B P O Ordinary Polariser light If the crystal B is further rotated light reappears and intensity becomes maximum again when their axis are parallel. This occurs after a further rotation of B through 90°. This experiment confirms that the light waves are transverse in nature. The vibrations in light waves are perpendicular to the direction of propogation of the the wave. First crystal A polarises the light so it is called polariser. Second crystal B, analyses the light whether it is polarised or not, so it is called analyser. 1. METHODS OF OBTAINING PLANE POLARISED LIGHT  Polarisation by reflection : The simplest method to produce plane polarised light is by reflection. This method was discovered by Malus in 1808. When a beam of ordinary light is reflected from a surface, the reflected light is partially polarised. (The degree of polarisation of the polarised light in the reflected beam is greatest when it is incident at an angle called polarising angle or Brewster's angle). Unpolarised Partially polarised light light µ1 µ2 83 ®  Physics : Wave Optics Pre-Medical  Polarising angle : Polarising angle is that angle of incidence at which the reflected light is completely plane polarised light.  Brewster's Law : When unpolarised light strikes at polarising angle θP on an interface separating two medium then the reflected light is completely polarised. Also reflected and refracted rays are normal to each other. This is known as Brewster's law. In case of polarisation by reflection : (i) For i = θP refracted light is partially polarised. (ii) For i = θP reflected and refracted rays are perpendicular to each other. (iii) For i < θP or i > θP both reflected and refracted light are partially polarised. θP R D ® θP µ 1 < µ2 D R θP > 45° θP < 45° µ 1 > µ2 µ1sin θP = µ2sin r θP µ1 θP µ1sin θP = µ2sin(90–θP) µ1sin θP = µ2cos θP µ2 µ tan θP = 2 µ1 r=90–θP Illustration 23. A ray of light from a denser medium strikes a rarer medium at an angle of incidence i.

According Brewster's law, the reflected light will be plane polarised with vibrations perpendicular to the plane of incidence and the transmitted light will be partially polarised. Since in one reflection about 15% of the light with vibration perpendicular to plane of paper is reflected therefore after passing through a number of plates emerging light will become plane polarised with vibrations in the plane of paper. reflected light 57° S refracted light By Dichroism ® Some crystals such as tourmaline and sheets of iodosulphate of quinone have the property of strongly absorbing the light with vibrations perpendicular of a specific direction (called transmission axis) and transmitting the light with vibration parallel to it. This selective absorption of light is called dichroism. So if unpolarised light passes through proper thickness of these crystals, the transmitted light will plane polarised with vibrations parallel to transmission axis. Polaroids work on this principle. Polaroid optic axis is perpendicular to the plane of tourmaline S paper crystal Ordinary transmission light axis By scattering : When light is incident on small particles of dust, air molecules etc. s(having smaller size as compared to the wavelength of light), it is absorbed by the electrons and is re-radiated in all directions. The phenomenon is called as scattering. Light scattered in a direction at right angles to the incident light is always plane- polarised. y Unpolarised light polarised polarised light light z x Unpolarised light By Double Refraction : It was found that in certain crystals such as calcite, quartz and tourmaline, etc., incident unpolarised light splits in into two light beams of equal intensities with perpendicular polarisations. One of the rays behaves as ordinary light and is called O-ray (ordinary ray) while the other does not obey laws of refraction and is called 85 ®  Physics : Wave Optics Pre-Medical E-ray (extra-ordinary ray).

Nicol-prism is made up of calcite crystal and in it E-ray is isolated from O-ray through total internal reflection of O-ray at canada balsam layer and then absorbing it at the blackened surface as shown in figure. Law of Malus ®  When a completely plane polarised light beam is incident on analyser, then intensity of emergent light varies as the square of cosine of the angle between the planes of transmission axis of the analyser and I ∝ cos θ ⇒ I = I0 cos θ 2 2 the polarizer. plane of polariser A A θ θ θ (i) If θ = 0° then I = I0 maximum value (Parallel arrangement) (ii) If θ = 90° then I = 0 minimum value (Crossed arrangement)  If plane polarised light of intensity I0(= KA2) is incident on a polaroid and its vibrations of amplitude A make angle θ with transmission axis, then the component of vibrations parallel to transmission axis will be Acosθ while perpendicular to it will be Asinθ. Polaroid will pass only those vibrations which are parallel to transmission axis i.e. Acos θ,  I0 ∝ A2 I = K(Acosθ) = KA cos θ 2 2 2 So the intensity of emergent light  If an unpolarised light is converted into plane polarised light its intensity becomes half.  If light of intensity I1, emerging from one polaroid called polariser is incident on a second polaroid (called analyser) the intensity of light emerging from the second polaroid is I2 = I1 cos θ θ = angle between the transmission axis of the two polaroids. 2 GOLDEN KEY POINTS  Our eyes are nearly insensitive to polarisation of light, but this is not universally true for animals.  If the angle of incidence is 0° or 90° the reflected beam is unpolarised.  A Nicol prism is made by cutting a calcite crystal in a certain way. 86  Physics : Wave Optics ® Pre-Medical Illustrations Illustration 24 For a given medium, the polarising angle is 60°.
