Abstract
It is not just the case that matter affects the propagation of light — or more specifically electromagnetic (EM) radiation — it is also the case that light affects the matter through which it propagates. Conversely, this affects the propagation of light through the medium, but in a much more specific way; this effect is a function of the properties of both the material and the incident EM radiation. We will additionally discuss the effects of dispersion in confined (bounded) media, i.e., where the dispersion is a function of the arrangement of certain materials and unbounded media where EM radiation is free to propagate undisturbed. This will be important when we discuss the propagation electric field signals of such media as well.
