Explores electromagnetic wave propagation, including Poynting vector, irradiance, dipole radiation, dielectric constant, and natural linewidth in atoms and radiation.
Explores atoms and radiation lineshapes, covering linewidths, lifetime broadening, and broadening mechanisms, including Lorentzian and Doppler effects.
Explores the photon concept in electromagnetic waves, including energy, momentum, emission by charges, coherence length, and the electromagnetic spectrum.
Explores the application of Maxwell's equations to antennas, covering radiation, Poynting vector, potentials, source currents, diffraction, and wave polarization.
Explores energy transfer in electromagnetic waves, including momentum and radiation pressure, setting the stage for understanding light interactions with electrons.
