Abstract:
Purpose: The main objective of this research was trying to solve the misunderstood nature of light by introducing and studying fluid optic and its influence on physical science. Methodology: The research adopted observation and a study of already published online and school library books on optics and physical science. Observation is always the best approach to quote a natural occurrence and behavior, the researcher observed the behaviour of thin light by isolating themself for a long time in a dark room having roof holes. Findings: The research findings revealed that; light is not basically a

Abstract:
The concept of charge transfer (CT) transitions in ferrites is based on the cluster approach and takes into account the relevant interactions, such as the low-symmetry crystal field, spin–orbital, Zeeman, exchange and exchange-relativistic interactions. For all its simplicity, this concept yields a reliable qualitative and quantitative microscopic explanation of spectral, concentration, temperature and field dependencies of optic and magneto-optic properties ranging from the isotropic absorption and optical anisotropy to circular magneto-optics.

Abstract:
We, as budding researchers, try to present science in the form of comics. We present the theory of optics by Christiaan Huygens and Sir Isaac Newton in a short comic strip. As we know, the Huygens principle explains that each wavefront can be considered to produce new wavelets or waves with the same wavelength as the previous one. A wavelet can be likened to a wave generated by a rock dropped into the water. The Huygens principle can be used to explain the diffraction of light in small slits. When passing through a small gap, the wavefront will create an infinite number of new wavelets so that

Abstract:
Because of their compatibility with the planar concept of integrated optics, grating couplers offer the most satisfactory means of coupling light into thin film optical waveguides. The purpose of this dissertation has been to study the behaviour, both theoretically and experimentally, and fabrication of grating couplers in nonlinear waveguides. A theory of nonlinear grating couplers is presented based on a coupled-mode approach. The dependence of coupling efficiency on incident beam intensity, beam size, beam position, incident angle, chirp rate, and waveguide losses have been examined all in

This dissertation formulates and applies a theory describing how one or two strong classical waves and one or two weak quantum mechanical waves interact in a two-level medium. The theory unifies many topics in quantum optics, such as resonance fluorescence, saturation spectroscopy, modulation spectroscopy, the build up of laser and optical bistability instabilities, and phase conjugation. The theory is based on a quantum population pulsation approach that resembles the semiclassical theories, but is substantially more detailed. Calculations are performed to include the effects of inhomogeneous

Abstract:
The optical stretcher (OS) is dual-beam laser trap capable of capturing and deforming micron-sized particles or biological cells. It can be employed to measure cell-mechanical properties and, thus, to monitor physiological changes, such as differentiation, and to diagnose diseases that affect the structural integrity of cells, like cancer and sickle-cell anemia. To correctly interpret the deformation data, this study presents a versatile physical framework for the electrodynamics, mechanics, and thermodynamics in the OS.

Abstract:
A theory, based on material parameters, is developed for colloidal-crystal Bragg filters. The coupling constant, for coupled-wave equations, is derived to produce filter spectra. The spectra are modified by convolving with a Gaussian function to represent crystal defects. Scattering losses are calculated to attenuate the out-of-band transmission. The theory is tested by comparing theoretical spectra with experimental spectra from colloidal-crystal Bragg filters fabricated with polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) colloid spheres.

Diffracting and focusing elements become more and more popular in soft and hard X-ray spectral domain in view of achieving studies of spectroscopy, luminescence, photoemission, microscopy, etc … Concerning diffraction elements, i.e. gratings, two main types have to be distinguished. The first type consists of bare metallic gratings, usually gold or platinum coated, which cover a wide range of wavelength, from 6 A° to 1000 A°, and are classical gratings used under grazing incidence. As "classical gratings" with finite conductivity, their theory was already published [1, 2] at the beginning of t

Abstract:
There have recently been several experiments which have observed electromagnetically induced transparency in atomic systems(1,2) This is based on the population trapping which may occur when two lower states are coupled to a common upper state by two laser fields. Due to destructive quantum mechanical interference this gives rise to a nonabsorbing resonance. Thus a strongly absorbing atomic transition may be rendered opaque.

Due to the photorefractive effect2 these two incident beams induce a periodic change, with periodicity Λ, in the refractive index of the crystal.
