The periodic motion in which there is existence of a restoring
force and the body moves along the same path to and fro about a

When the pendulum is displaced through a angle θ from the mean
position,a restoring torque come to play which tries to bring the
pendulum back to the mean position

will act as centre of disturbance they will emit secondary wave front
on reaching slit S1 and S2

on the path of an monochromatic beam of light coming from a source
„S‟ which produces the geometrical shadow CD on the screen

If the dimension or size of the obstacle is comparable with the
wave length of the incident light, then light bends at the edge of the
obstacle and enters in to the geometrical shadow region of the
obstacle

a zone plate, the light is obstructed from the alternate half period
zone through the alternate transparent zones

Hence, the resultant amplitude is sum of the individual
amplitude due to light coming from alternate half period zones

POLARISATION
The phenomenon of restricting the vibration of light in a particular
direction perpendicular to the direction of wave motion is called as
polarisation
...
When an ordinary light is incident normally on the two crystal plates
the emergence light shows a variation in intensity as T2 is rotated
...
This shows that the light
emerging from T1 is not symmetrical about the direction of
propagation of light but its vibration are confined only to a single line
in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation, such light is
called as polarised light
...

Polarised light:
The resultant light wave in which the vibrations are confined in a
particular direction of propagation of light wave, such light waves are
called Polarised light
...
Circularly polarised light:
When the two plane polarised wave superpose under certain
condition such that the resultant light vector rotate with a constant
magnitude in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation
and tip of light vector traces a circle around a fixed point such light is
called circularly polarised light
...
Pictorial representation of polarised light:
Since in unpolarised light all the direction of vibration at right
angles to that of propagation of light
...
In a plane polarised beam of light, the polarisation is along
straight line, the vibration are parallel to the plane and can be
represented by
If the light particles vibrate along the straight line perpendicular
to the plane of paper, then they can be represented by a dot
...
Plane of polarisation:
The plane passing through the direction of propagation and
containing no vibration is called as plane of polarisation
...
Angle between plane of vibration and plane of polarisation is
90˚
...
Since
during the rotation of the crystal, the variation in intensity takes
place, this suggests that light waves are transverse in nature
rather longitudinal
...

...
Polarisation by reflection:
The production of the polarised light by the method of reflection from
reflecting interface is called polarisation by reflection
...
If the angle of incidence is 0°
or 90° the light is not polarised
...
The angle of incidence for which the reflected component of
light is completely plane polarised, such angle of incidence is called
polarising angle or angle of polarisation or Brewster‟s angle
...
At ip the angle between reflected ray and refracted or transmitted
ray is π/2
...
The incident
ulpolarised light contain both perpendicular and parallel component
of light
...
The parallel
component of light is continues to vibrate and get refracted or
transmitted
...
Conclusion:
Hence, the reflected ray of light contains the vibrations of
electric vector perpendicular to the plane incidence
...
Brewster’s Law:
This law states that when an unpolarised light is incident at polarizing
angle „ip‟ on an interface separating air from a medium of refractive
index “µ” then the reflected light is fully polarized

Thus, it is concluded that at polarizing angle or at Brewster‟s angle,
the reflected light and the refracted light are mutually perpendicular to
each other
...
Polarisation by Scattering:
When a beam of ordinary light is passed through a medium
containing particles, whose size is of order of wavelength of the
incident light, then the beam of light get scattered in which the light
particles are found to vibrate in one particular direction
...
Explanation:
To explain the phenomenon of scattering, let us consider a beam of
unpolarised light along z-axis on a scatter at origin
...
When we look along Xaxis we can see the vibrations which are parallel to Y-axis
...
Hence, the light can be scattered perpendicular to incident light is
always plane polarized
...
To explain the polarization by refraction, let us consider an ordinary
light which is incident upon the upper surface of the glass slab at an
polarizing angle i p or Brewster‟s angle B , so that the reflected light is
completely polarized while the rest is refracted and partially
polarized
...
Now,
tan r

cos r sin(90 r ) sin i p

Thus according to Brewster‟s law, „ r ‟ is the polarizing angle for the
reflection at the lower surface of the plate
...
Hence, if a beam of unpolarised
light be incident at the polarizing angle on a pile of plates, then some
of the vibrations are perpendicular to the plane of incidence are
reflected at each surface and all those parallel to it are refracted
...
Malus law:
It states that when a beam of completely plane polarized light
incident on the plane of analyser, the intensity of the transmitted light
varies directly proportional to the square of the cosine of the angle
between the planes of the polariser and plane of the analyser
...
The amplitude of the light vector „E‟ is now resolved into two mutual
perpendicular component i

Double refraction:
The phenomenon of splitting of ordinary light into two
refracted ray namely ordinary and extra ordinary ray on passing
through a double refracting crystal is known as double refraction
Explanation:
To explain the double refraction, let us consider an ordinary
light incident upon section of a doubly refracting crystal
When the light passing through the crystal along the optic axis
then at the optic axis the ray splits up into two rays called as
ordinary and extraordinary ray which get emerge parallel from
the opposite face of the crystal through which are relatively
displaced by a distance proportional to the thickness of the
crystal
...

ray(E-ray)

Double refracting crystal:
The crystal which splits a ray of light incident on it into two
refracted rays such crystal are called double refracting crystal
...
Uniaxial
2
...
Uniaxial: The double refracting crystal which have one optic
axis along which the two refracted rays travel with same
velocity are known as uniaxial crystal
Ex: Calcite crystal, tourmaline crystal, quartz
Biaxial: The double refracting crystal which have two optic axis
are called as biaxial crystal
Ex: Topaz, Agromite
Optic axis: It is a direction inside a double refracting crystal
along which both the refracted behave like in all respect
...
The ordinary ray from the first crystal passes undeviated
through the 2nd
crystal and emerges as O1 ray
...
Hence the image O1 and E1 are seen
separately
...
As the
rotation is continued , O1 and O2 remained fixed while E1 and
E2 rotate around O1 and O2 respectively and images are found
to be equal intensities
...
r
...
When the 2nd crystal is rotated at an angle 135˚ w
...
t the 1st , four
images once again appear with equally intense
...
r
...
This is how we are able to produce the plane polarised light by
the method of double refraction
...
Principle:
It is based on the principle that it eliminates the ordinary ray by total
internal so that the extraordinary ray became plane polarised emerges
out from it
...
Construction:
A calcite crystal about the three times as long as the wide is taken
...
The crystal is cut apart
along a plane which is perpendicular to both the principal section
...
They are then
cemented together by Canada balsam whose refractive index is 1
...
Action:
When a ray of unpolarised light is incident on the nicol prism it
splits up into two refracted ray as O & E ray
...
55 is less than the refractive index of
calcite for the ordinary ray (O- ray), so the O- ray on reaching the
Canada balsam get totally reflected and is absorbed by the tube
containing the crystal while E-ray on reaching the Canada balsam is
get transmitted
...
Uses:
The nicol prism can be used both as apolariser and also an analyser
...
As this, ray falls on a second nicol which is parallel
to that of 1st, its vibration will be in the principal section of 2nd and
will be completely transmitted and the intensity of emergent light is
maximum, thus the nicol prism behaves as a polariser
...
Hence the ray will behave as a ray inside the 2nd and will lost by total
reflection at the balsam surface
...
Limitations:

Quarter wave plate: A double refracting crystal plate having a
thickness such as to produce a path difference of
4
or a phase
difference of between the ordinary and extra ordinary wave is called
2
as quarter wave plate or
4
plate
...
Working:
When a beam of monochromatic light incident on the plate it
will be broken up into O-ray and E-ray which will perpendicular to
the direction of wave propagation and vibrating in the direction of
incidence respectively
...
The crystal in which the O-ray
travels with a less velocity than E-ray called positive crystal
...
O
The crystal in which the O-ray travels with a greater velocity
than E-ray called positive crystal
...
It is used for producing circularly and elliptically polarised
light
...
In addition with nicol prism it is used for analysing all kind of
polarised light
...
Construction: It can be constructed by cutting a plane from double
refracting crystal such that its face parallel to the optic axis
...
Let us consider a doubly refracting crystal
Let t= thickness of crystal plate
O be the refractive index of the crystal for O-ray
E be the refractive index of the crystal for O-ray
O t = optical path for O ray
E t = optical path for E ray
then the path difference between the waves is ( O E ) t
If the plate acts as quarter plate, then ( O E ) t = λ/2

Production and Analysis Polarised Light
1
...
Inside the prism the beam is broken upto two
components „O‟ and „E‟ ray
...
The „E‟ component emerges out which is plane polarised with
vibration parallel to the end faces of the Nicol
...
Production of circularly polarised light:
The circularly polarised light can be produced by allowing
plane-polarised light
obtained from the Nicol to fall normally on a quarter wave plate
such that the
direction of vibration in the incident plane polarised light makes
an angle of 45⁰ with
the optic axis of the crystal
...
45⁰= a of the axis of x
) a cos wt
2
and
y a sin wt
Eliminating t from both the equation, we have
x 2 y 2 a 2 which represents a circle
...
3
...
In this case the incident wave is divided inside the plate into E and O
components of unequal amplitude A cos 300 and A sin 30 0 respectively
which emerge from the plate with a phase difference of
...
Hence the emerging
light coming from
plate is elliptically polarised

But some new phenomenon observed during the last decade of
19th century which is not explained by classical physics
...
The quantum idea was 1st introduced by Max Planck in 1900 to
explain the observed energy distribution in the spectrum of
black body radiation which is later used successfully by Einstein
to explain Photoelectric Effect
...
The concept of dual nature of radiation was extended to Louis
De Broglie who suggested that particles should have wave
nature under certain circumstances
...
The concept of Uncertainty Principle was introduced by
Heisenberg which explains that all the physical properties of a
system cannot even in principle, be determined simultaneously
with unlimited accuracy
...
Every system is characterized by a wave function ψ which
describes the state of the system completely and developed by
Max Born
...
The relativistic quantum mechanics was formulated by P
...
M

In this way, this leads to the development of quantum field
theory which successfully describes the interaction of radiation
with matter and describes most of the phenomena in Atomic
physics, nuclear physics, Particle physics, Solid state physics
and Astrophysics

All the laws of quantum physics reduces to the laws of classical
physics under certain circumstances of quantum physics are a
super set then classical physics is a subset

BLACK BODY RADIATION
A black body is one which absorbs all them radiations
incident on it
...
The black body emits radiation when it is heated at a fixed
temperature and it contains all frequencies ranging from
zero to infinity
...
The energy distribution curve for black body radiation
shows the following characteristics such as
At a given temperature the energy density has
maximum value corresponding to a value of
frequency or wavelength
...
The energy density decreases to zero for both higher
and lower values of frequency or wavelength
...
Many formulations are formulated to explain the above
experimental observations like Stefan-Boltzmann law,
Wein‟s displacement law and Planck‟s radiation formula

Is wave nature of radiation successfully explains the Compton
effect? Justify your answer
...
No
Compton effect
The phenomena in which a beam of high frequency radiation like xray &γ-ray is incident on a metallic block and undergoes scattering is
called Compton effect
...
It depends on the angle of scattering (angle between the
scattered & incident x-ray)
...
*Wave nature of radiation is unable to explain Compton shift as the
Compton shift depends on angle of scattering and wavelength of
scattered x-ray is different from that of the incident x-rays
