Description

This lecture covers the description of electromagnetic waves in transparent solids, including boundary conditions consistent with Maxwell's equations for reflection and refraction. It also discusses the electric susceptibility of dielectric materials, wavelength-dependence of refractive index, and optical constants. The concept of total internal reflection and the application of boundary conditions for reflected intensities are explained, along with the reflection at a perfect conductor.
