Plane Wave Incident

I am indebted to Weaver if he has indeed clarified certain points which I had previously considered to be obvious. Cagniard (1953) states explicitly the magnitude of the wavelengths in free space and it is further implicit in the work of Rankin (1962) that it is indeed this same electromagnetic field which is being considered. The plane wave aspect of the problem arises from the extent of and not the distance from the source so that truly it is the induction field and not the radiation field that is under discussion. I had believed, until this note by Weaver, that d’Erceville and Kunetz (1962) also considered a plane wave incident on the earth and in fact that I was merely following both Cagniard and d’Erceville and Kunetz in this matter. The consistency of the results would tend to confirm this belief.

Analytic Solutions

The nonrelativistic motion of a charged particle in the electromagnetic field of a plane wave is studied. New analytic solutions of the equation of motion are found that manifest the dependence of the period of the particle motion on the wave amplitude.

Direction Of Polarization

The wavelength of the illuminating radiation used in studies of photofield emission is comparable to the diameter of the shank of the field emitter. Under these conditions, diffraction is expected to play an important role in determining the absorption of energy from the electromagnetic field. The complicated geometry of the field emitter has so far prevented an exact calculation of this effect. By considering the diffraction of a plane wave by an idealized model of a field emitter, we have calculated the absorption of energy from an incident focussed laser beam. Calculations based on the present results yield accurate predictions of the magnitude of the temperature rise and its dependence on the position of the focal spot and on the direction of polarization of the incident beam.
