Light-Matter Interactions
What happens when EMR waves encounter matter?
Classically, esp if matter is dielectric (non-conducting) it depends on field intensity

Intense beams induced higher order interactions in anisotropic materials. SHG
requires crystals such as KH2PO4 (KDP), NH4H2PO4 (ADP), BBO

Light-Matter Interactions3a. Absorption
The electric field distorts the charge distribution in the dielectric by generating
dipoles that transiently increase the total E field in the medium, polarizing the medium.
In this polarized medium the motion of the EMR wave is distorted:

1. oscillates at $
2. travels more slowly &
is phase shifted in space
3. Intensity decays with
propagation (due to abs)
