Metamaterials and Photonic Crystals
Rayleigh scattering is the phenomenon where light or other electromagnetic radiation is scattered by particles much smaller than the wavelength of the light. This type of scattering is particularly significant in the atmosphere, where it explains why the sky appears blue during the day and red during sunrise and sunset, connecting it to processes of scattering and absorption.
congrats on reading the definition of Rayleigh Scattering. now let's actually learn it.
