Fig 9.1 From Principles of Electronic Materials and Devices, Third Edition, S.O. Kasap (© McGraw-Hill, 2005) Light is an electromagnetic wave An electromagnetic wave is a traveling wave that has time-varying electric and magnetic Fields that are perpendicular to each other and the direction of propagation z.

From Principles of Electronic Materials and Devices, Third Edition, S.O. Kasap (© McGraw-Hill, 2005) E x = E o cos(  t  kz +   ) E x = electric field along x at position z at time t, k = propagation constant, or wavenumber = 2  / = wavelength  = angular frequency E o = amplitude of the wave   is a phase constant which accounts for the fact that at t = 0 and z = 0 E x may or may not necessarily be zero depending on the choice of origin. (  t  kz +   ) =  = phase of the wave. This equation describes a monochromatic plane wave of infinite extent traveling in the positive z direction.z

Fig 9.2 From Principles of Electronic Materials and Devices, Third Edition, S.O. Kasap (© McGraw-Hill, 2005) A plane EM wave traveling along z, has the same E x (or B y ) at any point in a given xy plane. All electric field vectors in a given xy plane are therefore in phase. The xy planes are of Infinite extent in the x and y directions.
