1. Derive the
dimensionless form of the frequency dependence of the dielectric constant in
the single oscillator model, and derive expressions for the real and imaginary
parts of the index of refraction in terms of the real and imaginary parts of
the dielectric constant. Use the
definitions of the parameters below.
2. Write a
program to evaluate the real and imaginary parts of the complex dielectric
constant and index of refraction for a single oscillator model (You cannot
assume n =1.) as a function of frequency, w/w0,
where w0 is the resonant frequency.
Assume 0 <= w/w0 <= 10 in steps of
0.1, and g/me = 0.2w0 where
f0 = Ne2/e0 me
= 4wo2.

4. Output:
a) Plot Re k(w) and Im k(w) vs. w/w0
b) Plot Re n(w) and Im n(w) vs. w/w0
c) Calculate the maximum value of Im n(w) and
the value of w/w0 at which Im n(w) is a max.
d) Calculate the minimum value of Re n(w) and
the value of w/w0 at which it occurs.

1. Derive
the generalizations of the relectivity and transmittivity for both
polarizations vs. angle of incidence by replacing the real index of refraction
by the complex index of refraction in the corresponding Fresnel coefficients.
2. Write a
program to evaluate the reflectivity and transmittivity (Rs, Rp and Ts,
Tp) for both polarizations for
all angles of incidence between 0 degrees and 90 degrees in 1 degree steps:
a)
for glass-air ng = 1.5, kg = 0.1, nair = 1.0,
b)
for air-glass.
3. Run
Program
4. Output:
a) Tables for Rs, Rp vs angle of incidence, qi.
b) Tables for Ts, Tp vs angle of incidence, qi.
c) Check to show (Rs, Rp) + (Ts, Tp) = 1.
d) Plot of Rs and Ts vs angle of incidence, qi, on same graph.
e) Plot of Rp and Tp vs angle of incidence, qi, on same graph.
Note: Be
careful near critical and Brewster angles.
