2. What are the Optical Properties?
 Optical properties of materials are those properties which are defined by the
interaction of light with materials i.e. it define interaction of light with
material.
 OPTICAL = “Operating in or employing in the visible part of the
electromagnetic spectrum” OR “relating to sight, especially in relation to
the action of light”.
 The simple picture start by considering a ‘ray’ of an electromagnetic wave
of a single frequency entering a medium from vacuum. This could be
reflected, transmitted (refracted) or absorbed.

3. Optical Properties
 From more fundamental perspective., there are only two possibilities of
interaction of a medium with electromagnetic radiation
i. Scattering
ii. Absorption
 If one considers a wider spectrum of frequencies, the some part of the
spectrum could be absorbed while the other frequencies could be scattered.

4. List of Properties
1. Dielectric Constant -- Dielectric constant is a measure of how a material
responds to an electric field, particularly how much separation of charge occurs.
It consist of real part 𝜀1 and imaginary part 𝜀2 as
𝜀 = 𝜀1 − 𝑖𝜀2
2. Reflectivity -- The ratio between the reflected intensity, IR, and the incoming
intensity, I0, of the light serves as a definition for the reflectivity:
R = IR/I0
3. Energy Loss Function – Loss of energy per unit length is defined as energy loss
function.
4. Absorption Coefficient -- Absorption is related to the transition between
occupied and unoccupied states caused from the
light and electron interaction

12. The optical spectra are computed from the interband transition. The complex dielectric
functions have two parts first is real part ℇ1that defines the polarization
imaginary part ℇ2 shows the absorption as shown in figure(b). In pure SrTiO3 the
imaginary part of the dielectric function is zero at 0eV that shows there is no absorption
(dissipation) of energy but for the Mg-doped system ℇ2 gives positive value at 0eV that

13. The absorption edge is shifted towards low energy from 0.37eV to 0.06eV after
doping. The shifting of absorption edge towards low value shows the red shift
Optical properties depend upon the dielectric constant. The optical properties
illustrate the behavior of crystal during interaction with electromagnetic field.

confined their lattice site and go to plasma oscillation.

14. The complex refractive index N has two parts, the refractive index and
extinction coefficient K shown in figure(f).The refractive index (n) for pure
system is 2.49 and doped system is 2.52eV
The increasing of the refractive index after doping is the confirmation of the
increases of band gap.

15. Before and after Mg doping, the structures display p-type semiconducting
behavior and an increase in the band gap was observed (i.e. 1.866eV).
An indirect band gap before and after Mg-doping was observed.
Mg doping not only affect the structure but also alter its optical properties.
The absorption edge shows the red shift.
The refractive index increases from 2.49 to 2.52 after Mg doping.

16. Comprehensive understanding of optical properties (absorption, emission,
transmission, and reflection) is vital in various scientific and industrial
applications such as laser technology, (mirrors, lenses and optical windows),
contactless temperature measurement, optics, modeling, heat transfer, energy,
photovoltaic and aerospace industry etc.
