Polar vector

We consider first the OS of the donor electron transitions corresponding to a single valley. With the axis orientation used in Hamiltonian (5.5), the matrix elements for transitions from the Is state to odd-parity states with m = 0 are non-zero when the electric vector (polarization vector) of the radiation is parallel to the z axis similarly those for transitions from the Is state to odd-parity states with m = 1 are non-zero when the electric vector is perpendicular to the 2 axis. The one-valley OSs are denoted accordingly as /// and / i. When considering the multi-valley degeneracy, it can be shown that for an arbitrary choice of the polarization vector, the OS for transitions from the Is (Ai) ground state to the odd-parity states with m = 0 is /o = fjj and those for transitions from the Is (Ai) ground state to the odd-parity states... 

Equation (7.19) is called Fresnels law. It applies for both neutrons and x-rays. However, for electromagnetic waves it is valid, strictly speaking (see Lekner6), for only the s wave, that is, the wave with its electric vector polarized perpendicular to the plane of incidence (the label s stands for senkrecht meaning perpendicular in German). In the limit of the small incident angles that we are here considering, Equation (7.19) is valid approximately also for the p wave, and therefore the expression can be used irrespective of the state of polarization of x-rays. 

In this report we demonstrate the similarity of the quadratic integrals for unpolarized radiation, as employed by Rybicki, to the quadratic integrals used by Siewert and McCormick for the 2-vector polarized radiation problem. We have assumed that both I- and Q-components may be measured to the same accuracy. This may not be the case, as pointed out by Mishchenko, [10] because the Q-component of the unpolarized incident flux is much smaller than /-component. How the difference in measurement errors influences the results remains to be studied in a forthcoming paper.

In contrast, p-polarized light, which has its electric-field vector polarized perpendicular to both the s-polarized electric-field vector and the direction of propagation of the incident light, has a nonzero electric-field vector component perpendicular to the surface. This component is maximized at Brewster s angle [31] which is given by [32]... 

An earlier account of the angular dependency of the surface photoeffect was given by Korshunov et in which the assumption is made that only the lightwave component with its electric field vector polarized perpendicular to the metal surface (i.e., parallel to the plane of incidence) would contribute to the photocurrent (Figure 5). This condition arises because of the postulation of parallel momentum conservation of the emitted electrons which cross the interphasial boundary. Since the current, /, is proportional to the mean square field strength, and the relation...
