Abstract

In this work, the optical characteristics of SiO2 (refractive index [ n ], dielectric constant [ ε r ], reflectivity [R], transmissivity [T], absorptivity [A], and absorption coefficient [α]) were studied using the Lorentz model. A comparison was made with the practical results of previous studies and showed a good agreement.

1 Introduction

Lorentz model may be used to describe the dispersion of many substances and usually indicates sturdy dispersion across the resonant frequency. It is more often apposite for substances that have bound electrons, with the possibility of having many oscillators in a given structure [1]. Lorentz tried to describe the interaction between atoms and electric fields in classical expressions, which have been proposed that the electron (a particle with a few small mass) is bound to the nucleus of the atom (with a far larger mass) through a force that behaves according to Hooke’s law, i.e., a spring-like force. An implemented electric field might then interact with the charge of the electron, causing “stretching” or “compression” of the spring, which could set the electron into oscillating motion. That is the so-called Lorentz oscillator model [2].

Silicon dioxide, SiO2, additionally called silica, is a chemical compound that is an oxide of silicon. Silicon dioxide consists of one silicon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. The silicon–oxygen bonds create a tetrahedral shape, with each silicon atom on the middle of a tetrahedron fashioned by four oxygen atoms. This association is the basis for the different crystalline and amorphous types of SiO2 [3].

SiO2 has occupied a distinguished role each in scientific researches and industrial applications due to its ease of preparation and huge range of makes use of together with anti-resistance, corrosion resistance, hardness, dielectric, and optical transparency [4]. The synthetic silica (colloidal silica, silica gels, pyrogenic silica, and precipitated silica) is produced mainly in amorphous powder forms as compared to natural mineral silica (quartz, tridymite, cristobalite), which might be in crystalline forms [5]. SiO2 is a low refractive index material, which is widely used in optical coatings that perform from the ultraviolet to close to near-infrared radiation areas. Due to its high stability, high density, refractive index adjustability, low particulate infection, and amorphous structure, SiO2 has been the point of interest of many researchers in recent years. SiO2 films have typical applications such as high-reflection coatings, antireflection coatings, beam-splitters, band-skip filters, and polarizers [6].

2 Theory

Since the electron is substantially less massive than the nucleus of an atom, the problem can be solved as if the electron-spring system is associated with an infinite mass, which does not move, permitting to use the mass of the electron, m e = 9.11 × 10−31 kg. The assumption that the binding force behaves like a spring is a justified approximation for any sort of binding, given that the displacement is small enough (meaning that only the constant and linear terms in the Taylor expansion are relevant) [2].

In Figure 1, E⃑ net represents the vector sum of the incident electric field from an external source and the electric fields due to surrounding dipoles near the electron [7], i.e.,

(1) E net = E incedent ω ave + E surrounding dipoles .

If an electric field is incident on an area of matter, it generates electric dipoles out of neighboring atoms. These dipoles produce additional electric fields that affect the area in return. This phenomenon is also implied in the polarization equation [8]:

(2) P = ε ° χ e E net ,

where χ e is the electric susceptibility of the material and ε ° is the permittivity of free space.

From the Lorentz oscillation model, it is given as:

(3) F net = m e d 2 r d t 2 = F E + F damping + F spring ,

where m e d 2 r d t 2 , F E , F damping , and F spring are the acceleration, electric, damping, and spring force, respectively,

which leads to:

(4) e E net + m e γ i ω r k spring r = ω 2 m e r ,

where γ is the damping frequency, and γ = 1 τ , τ is the relaxation time.

Solving equation (4) for r ,

(5) r = e m e E net ω 2 k spring m e + i ω γ .

Applying the definition of (electric) resonance frequency of the system [9]:

(6) ω ° = k spring m e .

Then, the polarization per unit volume is written as [10]:

(7) P = Ne r ,

where N is the number of dipoles per unit volume.

Inserting equations (5) and (6) into equation (7) gives

(8) P = N e 2 m e E net ( ω ° 2 ω 2 ) i ω γ .

By equating equations (2) and (8) and defining the plasma frequency [1,11],

ω p = N e 2 m e ε ° ,

(9) χ e = ω p 2 ( ω ° 2 ω 2 ) i ω γ .

By the relation ε r = 1 + χ e , the refractive index of the dielectric medium becomes [12]

(10) n 2 = ε r 1 + χ e ,

where n is the complex refractive index:

(11) ε r = 1 + ω p 2 ( ω ° 2 ω 2 ) i ω γ ,

where ε r is the relative permittivity.

3 Deriving the equation of dielectric constant ( ε r ) and refractive index ( n )

When the interaction between light and the charges of the medium occurs due to the process of energy absorption in the material, this interaction results in a polarization of the charges of that medium, and this polarization is usually described by the complex dielectric constant ( ε r ), which is defined by the following relation [13]:

(12) ε r = ( ε R + i ε I ) ,

where ε R and ε I are the real and imaginary part of relative permittivity, respectively, and the real and imaginary parts, from equation (11), are

(13) ε R = 1 + ω p 2 ( ω 0 2 ω 2 ) ( ω 0 2 ω 2 ) 2 + ω 2 γ 2 , ε I = ω p 2 ω γ ( ω 0 2 ω 2 ) 2 + ω 2 γ 2 ,

The complex refractive index ( n ) is defined by the following relation [12]:

(14) n = ( n + ik ) ,

where n and k are the real and imaginary parts of the complex refractive index, which represent the normal refractive index and extinction coefficient, respectively.

(15) n 2 = ( n + ik ) 2 = n 2 + 2 ink k 2 .

From equations (10) and (15), the real and imaginary parts are

(16) n 2 k 2 = 1 + ω p 2 ( ω 0 2 ω 2 ) ( ω 0 2 ω 2 ) 2 + ω 2 γ 2 = Re ,

(17) 2 nk = ω p 2 ω γ ( ω 0 2 ω 2 ) 2 + ω 2 γ 2 = Im ,

(18) 2 nk = Im n = Im 2 k .

By inserting equation (18) in equation (16),

(19) Re = n 2 k 2 = Im 2 4 k 2 k 2 ,

(20) 4 k 4 + 4 Re k 2 Im 2 = 0 .

By solving equation (20), using the constitution method:

(21) k 2 = 4 Re ± 16 Re 2 + 16 Im 2 8 ,

(22) k 2 = Re ± Re 2 + Im 2 2 .

The real and imaginary parts of relative permittivity can be calculated from:

(23) ε R = n 2 k 2 ,

(24) ε I = 2 nk .

4 Optical properties (reflectivity [R], transmissivity [T], absorptivity [A], and absorption coefficient [α])

Optical properties of a material is meant as a material’s response to exposure of electromagnetic radiation and, in particular, to visible light. All electromagnetic radiation traverses a vacuum at the same velocity that of light (c = 3 × 108 m/s). This velocity is related to the electric permittivity of a vacuum ε ° and the magnetic permeability of a vacuum μ ° through c = 1 μ ° ε ° [14].

When light passes from one medium into another, several things may happen. Some of the incident light radiation may be transmitted through the medium, some will be absorbed, and some will be reflected at the interface between the two media, as explained in the following sections [14].

4.1 Reflectivity (R)

Reflectivity (R) is the ratio of the reflected radiation intensity, I R , from the material to the incident radiation intensity I ° :

(25) R = I R I ° .

If the light is normal (or perpendicular) to the interface, then [15]:

(26) R = 1 n 1 + n 2 .

4.2 Absorption coefficient (α)

Absorption coefficient (α) is defined as the ratio of the decrease in the incident radiation energy with respect to the unit distance toward the wave within the medium, and the absorption depends on the incident photon energy and the properties of the semiconductor [14].

The absorption coefficient depends on the extinction coefficient as [13]:

(27) α = 4 π k λ ( cm ) .

4.3 Transmissivity (T)

Transmissivity (T) is the ratio of the transmitted radiation intensity , I T , to the the incident radiation intensity , I ° [15]:

(28) T = I T I ° .

We can be found transmissivity from the following equation [14]:

(29) T = e α t ,

where α is the absorption coefficient and t is the thickness of the film assumed to be 1.

4.4 Absorptivity (A)

Absorptivity (A) is the ratio of the absorbed radiation intensity , I A , to the incident radiation intensity , I ° , [16]:

(30) A = I A I ° .

The relationship between transmittance (T) and absorbance (A) is given by the Beer–Lambert law (Beer’s law). According to Beer’s law, the absorbance is formulated as [14]:

(31) A = 2 log ( T ) .

5 Results and discussion

In this study, the optical characteristics of the insulator silicon dioxide, SiO2, were studied using the Lorentz model and using an MATLAB code for programming the equations. Figure 2 shows the values of real and imaginary parts of the complex refractive index found from equations (18) and (22). The figure shows that the resonant frequency, ω 0 = 1.5160 × 1016. At wavelength λ λ ° ( ω ω ° ), the value of n is nearly equal to 1.4, and the value of k = 0; however, at wavelength λ λ ° ( ω ω ° ) , the value of n 1 and the value of k = 0. When λ = λ ° ( ω = ω ° ), n and k are maximum (Figure 2).

For the case λ = λ ° , the values of ε R and ε I are maximum.
