Warning: Cannot solve symbolically. Returning a numeric approximation instead.
显示 更早的评论
Hello!
I'm trying to use the solve() function to solve a complex equation, but I can't seem to get it right. I keep getting "Warning: Cannot find explicit solution. ". This is my code:
d2=140;
d3=1200;
n3=1.445;
syms n2
ns=3.5;
lambda=600;
k2=n2.*2*pi/lambda;
k3=n3*2*pi/lambda;
delta2 = k2*d2;
delta3 = k3*d3;
M3 = [cos(delta3) (1i)*sin(delta3)/n3;(1i)*n3*sin(delta3) cos(delta3)];
M2 = [cos(delta2) (1i)*sin(delta2)/n2;(1i)*n2*sin(delta2) cos(delta2)];
M=M2*M3;
sub_vector = [1;ns];
sol=M*sub_vector;
r=(sol(1)-sol(2))/(sol(1)+sol(2));
solv = solve((abs(r))^2 == 1000,n2)

You are rarely going to get a closed form solution to a trig function, especially one involving floating point values.
My tests suggest that n2 would have to be imaginary for the expression to equal 1000. Are you expecting an imaginary value? (I have not determined yet whether there are any solutions.)

My tests show that there are an infinite number of solutions near n2 = complex(1.015,1.217)

No chance. If you plot abs(r)^2 over n2 = 2 to 4 you will find that it is strictly less than 1, and so cannot reach 1000. abs(r)^2 varies a fair bit but the upper limit over the real numbers is +1
In order for abs(r)^2 to reach 1000 then n2 needs to be a complex number whose real part is very close to 1.015 (narrow peak). The imaginary portion has a slightly wider range but not much.
