Optical transmission and refraction at the atomic level
The standard explanations for the phenomena of transmission and refraction of electromagnetic waves of optical wavelengths upon entering a transparent medium is in terms of the speed of the waves being altered. However, these phenomena are explicable without assuming that the speed of electromagnetic waves changes. The actual speed does not alter in various media but is customarily assumed to do so as this facilitates straight-forward calculations and allows easily understood explanations to be advanced. An underlying account of transmission and refraction at the level of individual atoms is presented in which the speed of electromagnetic waves remains constant.
期刊介绍:
Physics Education seeks to serve the physics teaching community and we welcome contributions from teachers. We seek to support the teaching of physics to students aged 11 up to introductory undergraduate level. We aim to provide professional development and support for teachers of physics around the world by providing: a forum for practising teachers to make an active contribution to the physics teaching community; knowledge updates in physics, educational research and relevant wider curriculum developments; and strategies for teaching and classroom management that will engage and motivate students.
