- Determine the value of optical impedance
- Relevant Equations
- Z = μ . c/n
Hi,
It's given that an electromagnetic wave (5.10^14 Hz) traveling in an environment with the index n = 1,33, where the magnetic permeability (μ) is equal to the magnetic permeability in a vacuum (μ0).
The optical impedance (Z) is given by the formula : Z = μ . c/n.
I tried to turn μ into μ0 to determine its value but I didn't manage to get any further than determining the value of the relative electrical permittivity (εr) = 1,769.
Sorry if I have misused any vocabulary because I'm translating this from french.
Thank you so much for your help!
