Corpus analysis for Wavevector
- In this selection, "wavevector" usually appears in the middle of the sentence. The average example has 33.7 words, and this corpus slice is mostly made up of statements.
- Around the word, frequency stand out and add context to how "wavevector" is used.
- Recognizable usage signals include angle and wavevector then a and direction or wavevector frequency phase. That gives this page its own corpus information beyond isolated example sentences.
- By corpus frequency, "wavevector" sits close to words such as aaaaand, aaah and aacl, which helps place it inside the broader word index.
Example types with wavevector
The same corpus examples are grouped by length and sentence type, making it easier to see the contexts in which the word appears:
Explicitly: : Linearity The simplest wavefunction is a plane wave of the form: : where the A is the amplitude, k the wavevector, and ω the angular frequency, of the plane wave. (30 words)
However, for understanding electromagnetic waves and polarization in particular, it is easiest to just consider coherent plane waves; these are sinusoidal waves of one particular direction (or wavevector ), frequency, phase, and polarization state. (33 words)
If a plane wave, confined to the xz plane, is incident on a dielectric with an angle and wavevector then a transmitted ray will be created with a corresponding angle of transmittance as shown in the figure above. (38 words)
If a plane wave, confined to the xz plane, is incident on a dielectric with an angle and wavevector then a transmitted ray will be created with a corresponding angle of transmittance as shown in the figure above. (38 words)
However, for understanding electromagnetic waves and polarization in particular, it is easiest to just consider coherent plane waves; these are sinusoidal waves of one particular direction (or wavevector ), frequency, phase, and polarization state. (33 words)
