The diffraction pattern from a hexagonally-shaped hole. Note the six-fold symmetry of the pattern. Observation of such complex patterns can reveal the underlying symmetry structure of the object that diffracts the light. This is the basis for many physical techniques that study patterns in the microscopic world.

Resolution
• The ability of optical systems to distinguish between closely spaced objects is limited because of the wave nature of light
• If two sources are far enough apart to keep their central maxima from overlapping, their images can be distinguished– The images are said to be
resolved• If the two sources are close together,
the two central maxima overlap and the images are not resolved

Standing back from a Georges Seurat painting, you can cannot resolve the dots but a camera, at the same distance can. Assume that light enters your eyes through pupils that have diameters of 2.5 mm and
enters the camera through an aperture with diameter of 25 mm.Assume the dots in the painting are separated by 1.5 mm and that the
wavelength of the light is 550 nm in vacuum. Find the distance at which the dots can just be resolved by a) the camera b) the eye.

• A wave is said to be linearly polarized if the resultant electric field E vibrates in the same direction at all times at a particular point
• The plane formed by E and the direction of propagation is called the plane of polarization of the wave

Polarization by Reflection
• When an unpolarized light beam is reflected from a surface, the reflected light may be– Completely polarized– Partially polarized– Unpolarized
• It depends on the angle of incidence– If the angle is 0°, the reflected beam is unpolarized– For other angles, there is some degree of polarization– For one particular angle, the beam is completely polarized

Polarization by Reflection, Partially Polarized Example
• Unpolarized light is incident on a reflecting surface
• The reflected beam is partially polarized
• The refracted beam is partially polarized

Polarization by Double Refraction: Birefringence
• In certain crystalline structures, the speed of light is not the same in all directions
• Such materials are characterized by two indices of refraction
• They are often called double-refracting or birefringent materials
![Page 81: Single Slit - srjcstaff.santarosa.edusrjcstaff.santarosa.edu/~lwillia2/private41/41ch38.pdf · Single Slit Intensity • The intensity can be expressed as • I max is the intensity](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062507/5fdb3325a5c8bc047a720168/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Optical Stress Analysis
• Some materials become birefringent when stressed
• When a material is stressed, a series of light and dark bands is observed– The light bands correspond to
areas of greatest stress• Optical stress analysis uses
plastic models to test for regions of potential weaknesses

Polarization by Scattering
• When light is incident on any material, the electrons in the material can absorb and reradiate part of the light– This process is called scattering
• An example of scattering is the sunlight reaching an observer on the Earth being partially polarized

Polarization by Scattering, cont.
• The horizontal part of the electric field vector in the incident wave causes the charges to vibrate horizontally
• The vertical part of the vector simultaneously causes them to vibrate vertically
• If the observer looks straight up, he sees light that is completely polarized in the horizontal direction

Scattering, cont.
• Short wavelengths (blue) are scattered more efficiently than long wavelengths (red)
• When sunlight is scattered by gas molecules in the air, the blue is scattered more intensely than the red
• When you look up, you see blue• At sunrise or sunset, much of the blue is scattered
away, leaving the light at the red end of the spectrum

• Certain materials display the property of optical activity– A material is said to be optically active if it
rotates the plane of polarization of any light transmitted through it
– Molecular asymmetry determines whether a material is optically active
