Ray Properties
The Ray Properties node is added by default. Only one instance of this node can exist for each physics interface. The Ray Properties node defines the equations for ray propagation and may also include inputs for some ray properties.
Ray Properties
This section is shown when Monochromatic is selected from the Wavelength distribution of released rays list in the physics interface Ray Release and Propagation section. Otherwise the frequency or vacuum wavelength of released rays is controlled separately by each ray release feature.
Select an option from the Ray property specification list: Specify vacuum wavelength (the default) or Specify frequency.
•
For Specify vacuum wavelength enter a Vacuum wavelength λ0 (SI unit: m). The default is 660 nm.
•
For Specify frequency enter a Ray frequency v (SI unit: Hz). The default is 4.54 × 1014 Hz.
