Definition of Index of Refraction In uniform isotropic linear media, the wave equation is: They are satisfied by plane wave y=A e i(k r- wt) y can be any Cartesian components of E and H The phase velocity of plane wave travels in the direction of k is
Definition of Index of Refraction We can define the index of refraction as Most media are nonmagnetic and have a magnetic permeability m=m 0, in this case In most media, n is a function of frequency.
Classical Electron Model ( Lorentz Model) w 0 Let the electric field of optical wave in an atom be E=E 0 e-iwt the electron obeys the following equation of motion X is the position of the electron relative to the atom m is the mass of the electron w 0 is the resonant frequency of the electron motion g is the damping coefficient - X + E
Classical Electron Model ( Lorentz Model) The solution is The induced dipole moment is atomic polarizability The dielectric constant of a medium depends on the manner in which the atoms are assembled. Let N be the number of atoms per unit volume. Then the polarization can be written approximately as P = N p = N a E = e 0 c E
Classical Electron Model ( Lorentz Model) The dielectric constant of the medium is given by e = e 0 (1+c) = e 0 (1+Na/ e 0) If the medium is nonmagnetic, the index of refraction is n= (e /e 0)1/2 = (1+Na/ e 0 )1/2 If the second term is small enough then
Classical Electron Model ( Lorentz Model) The complex refractive index is at w ~w 0 , Normalized plot of n-1 and k versus w-w 0
For more than one resonance frequencies for each atom, Classical Electron Model ( Drude model) If we set w 0=0, the Lorentz model become Drude model. This model can be used in free electron metals
Relation Between Dielectric Constant and Refractive Index By definition, We can easily get:
An Example to Calculate Optical Constants Real and imaginary part of the index of refraction of Ga. N vs. energy;
Kramers-Kronig Relation The real part and imaginary part of the complex dielectric function e (w) are not independent. they can connected by Kramers-Kronig relations: P indicates that the integral is a principal value integral. K-K relation can also be written in other form, like
A Method Based on Reflection Typical experimental setup ( 1) halogen lamp; (2) mono-chromator; (3) chopper; (4) filter; (5) polarizer (get p-polarized light); (6) hole diaphragm; (7) sample on rotating support (q); (8) Pb. S detector(2 q)
Calculation In this case, n 1=1, and n 2=nr+i n i Snell Law become: E 1' n 1=1 Reflection coefficient: z n 2=nr+i n i q q x E 1 Reflectance: R(q 1, l, nr, n i)=|r p|2 Reflection of p-polarized light From this measurement, they got R, q for each wavelength l, Fitting the experimental curve, they can get nr and n i.

Use AFM to Determine the Refractive Index Profiles of Optical Fibers The basic configuration of optical fiber consists of a hair like, cylindrical, dielectric region (core) surrounded by a concentric layer of somewhat lower refractive index( cladding). n 1 n 2 2 a Fiber samples were • Cleaved and mounted in holder There is no way for AFM to measure refractive index directly. • Etched with 5% HF solution People found fiber material with different • Measured with AFM refractive index have different etch rate in special solution.
AFM • The optical lever operates by reflecting a laser beam off the cantilever. Angular deflection of the cantilever causes a twofold larger angular deflection of the laser beam. • The reflected laser beam strikes a positionsensitive photodetector consisting of two side -by-side photodiodes. • The difference between the two photodiode signals indicates the position of the laser spot on the detector and thus the angular deflection of the cantilever. • Because the cantilever-to-detector distance generally measures thousands of times the length of the cantilever, the optical lever greatly magnifies motions of the tip.

Thickness Measurement n(lm)=m lm/2 d Limit Minimum thickness: ~500/n Error<l/2 n Steps to calculate thickness • Get peak position lm • d=(lm lm-1)/2/[lm-1 n(lm) - lm n(lm-1)] • Average d • get m min= n(l max)*2 d/ l max • Calculate d : d=m lm/2/n(lm) (from m min for each peak) • Average d again
