Enhanced Birefringence of Inhomogeneous Slabs

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that the presence of an interface changes the local field distributions in inhomogeneous materials. The loss of field symmetry leads to a significant surface-induced birefringence of an inhomogeneous medium.
