Generalized Laws of Refraction and Reflection

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The generalized laws of refraction and reflection for absorbing media are rederived, avoiding complex angles and using only definitions with measurable parameters. The results are put in a form which, by inspection, reduces to Snell’s and Fresnel’s equations.
