Introduction
Magnetism
Magnetism is defined as an attractive and repulsive
phenomenon produced by a moving electric charge.
the affected region around a moving charge consist
of both an electric and magnetic field.
ex:- bar magnet
It is attracted to magnetic field and can attract or
repel other magnets
Magnetic dipole
A magnet consist of a both north and south poles.
any two opposite sides separated by a finite
distance constitute magnetic dipole
Magnetic dipole moment(or)magnetic
moment
The strength of the magnetic dipole is called the
magnetic dipole moment
Let us consider a m be the magnetic pole strength
and '2l' be the length of the magnet.this magnetic
moment is given by the

==> Whenever current 'I' ampere flows through a
circular wire of one turn having an area of
cross-section Am²,it is said to be have a magnetic
moment
μₘ=IA

==>It is vector quantity pointing from S to N poles
Magnetic field
A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the
magnetic influence of the electric charges in relative
motion and magnetic materials
ex:-This can be seen in the permanent magnets
Magnetic field strength(H)
The force experianced by a unit north pole placed
at a given point in a magnetic field.
==>It is expressed in A/m

Relative permeability(μᵣ)
The ratio between the magnetic permeability to
the magnetic permeability of free space is called
Relative permeability
μᵣ=μ/μ₀
Relation between the B,H,M
B=μH μ=B/H
=μ₀μᵣH [μᵣ=μ/μ₀ ==> μ=μ₀μᵣ]
B=μ₀μᵣH+μ₀H-μ₀H
B=(μᵣ-1)μ₀H+μ₀H

B=μ₀μᵣH ----> 1
we know that
M=(μᵣ-1)H

Hysteresis
when an ferromagnetic material is placed in a
magnetic field,the curve is drawn in between the
magnetic field(B) and magnetic intensity"H".this is
called the hysteresis of curve(or)hysteresis loop(or)
as shown in graph the B is lagging behind it is called
the hysteresis loop(or)B-H curve
In the hysteresis curve it exhibits the two properties
are residual magnetism and cohersive forces
from the figure as the H is decreased,B also
decreased but following a path ab.In the B lags
behind it whenever the H becomes zero,B is still has
a value equal to ob.this magnetic flux density
remaining in the speciment in the absence of
22. 126
any external field is called the "residual magnetism"
of the speciment.the power of retaining this
magnetism is called the "retentivity(or)remenence
of the speciemen
Whenever,if the magnetic intensity H is now
increased in the reversed direction,the value of B
further decreased,still lagging behind H and
becomes zero when H has a value equal to oc
this value of the magnetic intensity is called the
coercive forces(or) coercitivity.
Coercitivity:-
it is a measure of magnetic intensity required to
destroy the residual magnetism
When the H increases beyond oc,the speciment is
increasingly magnetised in the opposite direction
and a poibt such d is reached
thus we can found that flux density B always lags
behind the magnetic intensity H.the lagging of B
behind H is called hysteresis and the curve in
between B and H as shown in abcde is called
"Hysteresis loop(or)curve

Let us consider the surface be divided into larger
no.of square loops of small surface "ds" as shown in

we know that the curl of a vector field at any point
is the maximum line integral per unit area along the

hence,the total line integral of A around the
boundary of all area elements is given by the

Structure of the optical fibre:-

n₁>n₂
63. 158
An optical fibre has three co-axial regions.
they are:
a)core
b)cladding
c)sheet
a)Core:-
The innermost region of an optical is called the core.it
is made up with glass possessing high refractive
index(n₁).the core carries light
b)Cladding:-
==>The core surrounds by cylindrical shell called
cladding
==>The refractive index of cladding(n₂) is always lower
than the that of the core i.e n₂<n₁ (or) n₁>n₂
==>The cladding helps to kee the light within the core
through the phenomenon of the total internal reflection
c)Sheet:-
==>The outermost region of an optical fibre is called
the sheet.
==>The sheet protects the cladding and core from
obiasions contamination an the harmful influence of
moistructred.
64. 159
==>Sheet increases the mechanical strength of
the fibre

n₂(cladding)
n₁(core)
(n₁>n₂)
r
65. 160
The optical fibre based on the principle of the total
internal reflection.when the light is incident on the
one end of the fibre at small angle,it passes through
the fibre as explained above
Let i and r be the angles of incidence and angle of
refraction of the light with the acis.Let "θ" be the angle
of incident on the interference of core and cladding
(θ=90-r).Let n₁ and n₂ are the refractive index of the
fibre of core and cladding respectively(n₁>n₂)
from the snell's law
sini/sinr = n₂/n₁ ----> 1
At the interference of core and cladding if θ>θᶜ
sinθ /sin90 = n₂/n₁
ᶜ
sinθ = n₂/n₁
θ =sin⁻¹(n₂/n₁)
ᶜ
ᶜ
==>To undergoes the total internal reflection the
angle of incident of core(θ) should be greater than
the critical angle(θ ) i.e (θ>θ ) undergoes the total
internal reflection.thus,the light ray is guided
through the fibre from one end without any energy
being lost due to refraction.

Acceptance angle(θₐ):-
The angle of incident(θₐ) for which refracted ray
at the interference of core and cladding reflect back
to the same medium is called acceptance angle.the
zone or medium at which light enters into the fibre
is called the Launching zone

Let us consider the refractive index of the core be n₁
and that of cladding n₂(n₁>n₂).Let n₀ be the refractive
index of the launching zone.The light ray enters the
fibre at angle i to the axis of the fibre.the ray refracts
at an angle θ.if θ>θ the ray undergoes total internal
reflection

w.k.t, i=iₘₐₓ ; θ=θ
n₀siniₘₐₓ = n₁cosθ

ᶜ
[θ =critical angle]
ᶜ
siniₘₐₓ = n₁/n₀ cosθ
since, sin(θ )=n₂/n₁ᶜ
ᶜ
siniₘₐₓ=n₁/n₀ √1-n₂²/n₁²
siniₘₐₓ=√n₁²-n₂²/n₁ (n₁/n₀)
siniₘₐₓ=√n₁²-n₂²/n₀
where, n₀=refractive index of axis of fibre in air
n₀=1
siniₘₐₓ=√n₁²-n₂²
iₘₐₓ=sin⁻¹(√n₁²-n₂²)
In the otherwords we can say that,the maximum
angle of light which enters into the axis of fibre is
acceptance angle(θ )
ᶜ
68. 163
Numerical apearture:-
The sine of the acceptance angle is called the
numerical apearture
(or)
The light gathering of the optical fibre is called NA
NA=sin(iₘₐₓ)
w.k.t, acceptance angle iₘₐₓ=sin⁻¹(√n₁²-n₂²)
NA=sin(sin⁻¹(√n₁²-n₂²))
NA=√n₁²-n₂²
==>The numerical apearture for short communication
is 0.4 to 0.5

The fractional change of refractive index can be
defined as the

2)Extrinsic semiconductor
When the impurities are added to an intrinsic

semiconductor
Depending upon the type of impurity added to the
intrinsic semiconductor are two types.they are:

At 0k.this electron is bound to phosphorous with 0.
045ev.the corresponding energy band with the
separation of energy gap.the donar energy level is
111. formed below the conduction band.
202
==>when the temperature(T>0k) is increased the
bound electrons becomes free and move to the
conduction.As a result,the donar energy level get
ionised
==>As the temperature still increases,the breakage
of covalent band releases an electron hole pair i.e,
the electrons moves from valance band to the
conduction band by leaving holes in valance band.
==>Thus,the concentration of electrons in the
conduction band rather than holes.thus we can say
that majority charge carriers are electrons and
minority charge carriers are holes
b)p-type semiconductor:-
When the pure semiconductor "si" is doped with
the trivalent impurities like B,Al,etc.,is known as the
p-type semiconductor

covalent with the adjacent neighbouring si atoms
and one bond is left a positive hole is created at
this place.since boran is in a position to accept an
electron.it acts as a acceptor.As you seen in the
above figure there is a acceptor energy level(Eₐ)
just above the valance band
==>As the temperature is raised(T>0) the elctrons
from the valance band try to occupy the acceptor
and it gets ionised creating holes in the valance band.
As the temperature is still increases the breakage of
covalent bonds,electrons moves into the C.B leaving
more holes in the V.B
.As a result holes becomes majority charge carriers
and electrons becomes minority charge carriers.

level is given by
E =E -k T log(N /N )
ᶠ ᶜ ᴮ ᶜ ᴰ

Effects of temperature on E
ᶠ
In an n-type semiconductor,as temperature T
increases,more number of electron-hole pairs are
formed.At a very high temperature T,the
concentration of thermally generated electrons in
the conduction band will be far greater than the
concentration of donar elements.In such a case,as
concentration of electrons and holes become equal,
the semiconductor becomes essentially intrinsic
and E returns to the middle of the forbidden energy
gap.Hence,it is concluded that as the temperature
of the p-type and n-type semiconductor increses,E
progressively moves towards the middle of the
forbidden energy gap.
