How to solve complex equations?

4 次查看(过去 30 天)
I am trying to solve the following equation.
I have the following script to solve for theta, but getting erro when I am running the program.
Any suggestions is much appreciated.
Thank you.
clc;
clear;
close all;
syms theta
assume(0 <= theta <= 2*pi)
t = 0.4e-3;
n = 1.523;
delta_y = 3;
S1 = solve(delta_y == t*sind(theta)*(1 - sqrt((1-sind(theta)^2)/n^2 - sind(theta)^2)),theta);

You forgot a bracket around the denominator under the square root.

Sorry that I left out some details. N here is refractive index of the material and t is the thickness of the slab...I want to find the theta in angles for a fixed shift of delta_y.
Thank you.

Your equation has only complex solutions.
Note that you used sind instead of sin in the function definition. Thus assuming theta in radians is wrong.
clc;
clear;
close all;
syms theta
%assume(0 <= theta <= 2*pi)
t = 0.4e-3;
n = 1.523;
delta_y = 3;
S1 = solve(delta_y == t*sind(theta)*(1 - sqrt((1-sind(theta)^2)/(n^2 - sind(theta)^2))),theta,'ReturnConditions',1,'MaxDegree',3)
S1 = struct with fields:
theta: [2×1 sym] parameters: k conditions: [2×1 sym]
vpa(S1.theta)
ans = 
S1.parameters
ans = 
k
S1.conditions
ans =

If you use the new parameters, you get back some real solutions:
clc;
clear;
close all;
syms theta
t = 0.7e-3;
n = 1.533;
delta_y = 21.2991*1e-6;
S1 = vpa(solve(delta_y == t*sind(theta)*(1 - sqrt((1-sind(theta)^2)/(n^2 - sind(theta)^2))),theta,'MaxDegree',3))
S1 = 
format long
S1 = double(S1(abs(imag(S1))<1e-6))
S1 =
1.0e+02 * 1.749999973612585 - 0.000000000000000i 0.050000026387415 + 0.000000000000000i
