Reflection, Transmission, and Phase Shift

From CVI Melles Griot
 

 

Fresnel's equations relate the amplitudes for reflection and transmission to the incident field amplitude at a dielectric interface. From these equations, the power reflectivity and transmissivity can be calculated, as well as the phase shifts for reflected and transmitted wave.
