What is Light? (Ch2) Rays from eyes (Greeks, ~ 400 BC) Rays of Particles (1672, Newton) Light is wave (1678, Huygens) Light is wave (1801, Young) Light is electromagnetic wave (1865, Maxwell) Light is energy quanta, or photon (1905, Einstein) Light is particle (1922, Compton) Light is a wave-particle duality (1927, Heisenberg) What?

A pipeline approach: acquisition, filtering, mapping and rendering

Corpuscular Model Light is a stream or ray of particles Easy to understand the shadow The reflection law: incidence angle = reflection angle The refraction law – Snell’s law What?

A pipeline approach: acquisition, filtering, mapping and rendering Domain of Geometric optics, e.g., glasses, telescopes

Wave Model However, the corpuscular model can not explain Diffraction Interference Polarization Huygen’s wave model (1978) can explain all these phenomena including refraction However, no one believed in Huygen’s wave theory until 1801 Yong’s double-slit experiment People around Newton had more faith in his corpuscular theory than Newton himself What?

Wave Model What? Most effective way human takes in information, digest information, making decision, and being creative Why? One picture is worth 1000 words How? A pipeline approach: acquisition, filtering, mapping and rendering Thomas Young’s sketch of his double-slit experiment of diffraction of light (1801)

Electromagnetic Wave Jamess Maxwell generalized Ampere’s law and summed all the laws of electricity and magnetism in the form of a set of four differential equations (1865) He derived a wave equation and predicted the existence of electromagnetic wave He calculated the electromagnetic wave speed about 3.1 X 108 m s-1 He suggested “Light waves are electromagnetic Waves” Heinrich Hertz experimented with a electric spark gap, and produced and detected electromagnetic wave in 1888.

Particle Nature of Radiation In 1897, J.J. Thomson discovered electrons In 1899, He showed the electrons are emitted when light falls on a metal surface In 1902, Philip Lenard observed the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons was independent of intensity of incident light the energy of the emitted electrons increased when the frequency of the incident light was increased In 1905, Einstein proposed the photon theory “monocromatic radiation behaves as if it consists of mutually independent energy quanta of magnitude hv” In 1926, Gilber Lewis coined the word “photon” What?

Particle Nature of Radiation In 1923, Compton experimented the interaction between X-ray photon and electrons, and verified that photon has the momentum as expected Max Planck’s blackbody radiation obtained from experiment (1900) can be explained by the photon theory What?

Wave Nature of Matter In 1925, Louis De Broglie proposed the wave nature of electrons In 1927, Davisson & Germer experimented with the diffraction of electrons and found the diffraction pattern. In 1928, G.P. Thompson carried out electron diffraction experiment and deduced the wavelength of the electron beam Max Jammer wrote:” Thomson, the father, was awarded the Nobel Prize for having shown that the electron is a particle, and Thompson, the son, for having shown that electron is a wave” What?

The Uncertainty Principle The reconciliation of the corpuscular nature with the wave character of light is made through modern quantum theory. Light has a property of wave-particle duality Uncertainty principle of Heisenberg If the x coordinate of the position of a particle is known to an accuracy Δx, then the x component of the momentum cannot be determined to an accuracy better than Δpx=h/ Δx, where h is Planck’s constant What? Most effective way human takes in information, digest information, making decision, and being creative Why? One picture is worth 1000 words How? A pipeline approach: acquisition, filtering, mapping and rendering The diffraction pattern can be explained by the corpuscular theory, when the uncertainty theory is taken into account
