In this video I show you how to make a material that makes light bend! I first show you that light always moves in a straight line. then I show you how you can change the direction of the straight line. Then I show you a material that continually changes the direction of the light rays so that it curves!

  • The density gradient of the atmosphere does this too, allowing you to see objects that are geometrically below the horizon, and causing sunrises to appear earlier and sunsets later than they occur astronomically. The dispersion in this bending (variability with wavelength) also causes the "green flash" occasionally seen just at sunset over the ocean.

  • Just for completeness, I'd like to mention that due to diffraction (caused by light being both a wave and a particle) light actually IS capable of moving around corners and not only in a straight line, even without using this material. However, the amount of light that "bends" this way in a normal environment is very minimal, so the effect is not generally noticeable.

    • @@black_crest Possibly. The lensing effect caused by edge diffraction is not discernible from the lensing effect caused by refraction due to materials with different refractive indices. Radio waves also bend when passing over a sharp edge. Light also bends due to gravity. The bend is not negligible when large distances are involved… scientists have measured the shift in apparent position of stars due to our sun (seen during a solar eclipse) and during the Cold War, India and Russia maintained a radio communication link by aiming a radio wave at the sharp peaks of the Himalayan Mountain range that ordinarily blocked line of sight radio communications and made the laying of copper/fiber cable impractical. The knife edge peaks of the tall mountains gave a signal path similar to a radio wave bounced off the ionosphere, but was not subject to the varying and unreliable height of the ionosphere.

  • I was taught (many years ago) a photon has no mass that's the only way it can travel as fast as it does. No mass = no momentum. But yes you are bending light. If you change the pressure in the whole volume would this change the bending angle ? Modulate with sound to scan ? Interesting. Great work.

  • I've seen physicists talking about light slowing down when going through a transparent material. Apparently, what's happening is more complicated than atoms absorbing and emitting photons. It has more to do with light acting as a wave through the material and interference with that wave. It might be more accurate to imagine it as the electrons in the material causing drag on the photons. Like a piece of metal moving past a magnet. Although I'm sure some physicist will have a problem with that explanation as well. I'm probably not describing the process exactly right, but I think it's closer to what is actually going on.

    @TerryProthero@TerryProthero4 жыл бұрын
    • Had to pause the video to find this comment lol. As an armchair physicist, basically yes, the resulting light in the medium is the original incoming photon plus all the electrons being disturbed by, and affecting as a result, the electric field. That all adds up to one composite wave which has a sub-light group speed. Interestingly, the phase speed can be faster than c, that's why you sometimes see articles about a material having faster-than-light properties. But the phase speed doesn't carry any information and doesn't represent the speed of the actual photon.

  • Cool experiments! Near the end of your video, you showed a picture of a mirage, due to a temperature inversion. Well! There's another property of temperature inversions that I've only seen once outdoors. At U of I in Champaign-Urbana I loved to take long bike rides in the flat country. It was hot, and sunny but there was no breeze. I looked to the side and the soybean plants were being blown by a strong wind in a circular pattern. There was a powerful vortex (a "dust devil"). Dust and dry leaves were being sucked upwards for more than 500 to 800 feet. I understand the basic idea of a vortex; somehow .the hot air at the ground punctured through the layer of air and began spinning, but I never saw a stationary dust devil before; it didn't move at all during the half hour I watched. This might be put to a practical use if a dark cone was built, with hot air being drawn through ducts to a central column with a wind turbine generator at the top

On those beautiful sunny days the light coming from the Alps is bent in a way which makes them appear very near and really huge. Some people even believe the city to be right next to the mountain range after having seen photos from Föhn days, but actually it is about 80 kilometers away.

  • You are also sending the light just above it's critical angle for those materials(form sugar to water). At critical angle the light goes straight with the boundary between two materials(here sugar and water).But if the angle of incidence is larger than critical angle then the light doesn't go to the material which have lower refractive index(here water),totally comes back to the material which have much refractive index.This phenomenon is called Total Internal Refraction. Based on this concept optical fibers are made.
