hi ,everyone
from the microscopic view, we can simply regard the atom in the mass as a spring, which will be vibrated by the light wave (collided by the photon, could i say that?)and in this way emit some "new" light waves, but whose wavelength is shorter than the incident wave. And it is the reason for the refrective phenomenon. is this true?
if i am right, why does this "new" light have shorter wavelength ?
and what has happened to those incident photon that don't collide with the mass atomic since there is large room among the atomics? or there is no photon survie?
which kind of physical textbook should i read further ,about this area?
thanks
